The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas
This happy go lucky view of small town vice
and statewide political side stepping recounts
the good times and the demise of the Chicken
Ranch, known since the 1850s as one of the
better pleasure palaces in all of Texas.
Governors, senators, mayors and even
victorious college football teams frequent
Miss Mona's cozy bordello until that puritan
nemesis Watchdog focuses his television
cameras and his righteous indignation on the
institution.
"Utterly charming, lively and genial."
---N.Y. Daily News.
"Humorous and good natured."
---N.Y. Post.
"A font of fun and friendliness, engagingly rich in
regional nostalgia and spiced with delicate bawdry.
The country and western score is a delight."
---Time.
