05. The Girl from Petrovka (1974)UNIVERSAL/KOBAL/SHUTTERSTOCK

10. Best Friends (1982)HULTON ARCHIVE/GETTY

You know when you say, “If we’re not married by the time we’re 30, we’ll get married” to your best friend? That’s pretty much what happened to Hawn and Burt Reynolds (and his mustache) in Best Friends.

11. Swing Shift (1984)WARNER BROS/KOBAL/SHUTTERSTOCK

In the film that started one of Hollywood’s most successful romances, Hawn connected with her longtime partner, Kurt Russell, while on set for the film.

14. Bird on a Wire (1990)UNIVERSAL PICTURES/GETTY

It’s the type of film Hawn does best: totally over-the-top, but super entertaining and fun. Hawn reconnected with an old flame, only to find out he was in witness protection.

15. Housesitter (1992)UNIVERSAL/KOBAL/SHUTTERSTOCK

Hawn played a con artist, Dawn, opposite Steve Martin, and the laughs just keep coming with these two.

You don’t own her. Or Bette Midler! Or Diane Keaton! The three powerhouses formed The First Wives Club and rocked all-white ensembles better than most brides on their wedding day!

17. Everyone Says I Love You (1996)MONDADORI PORTFOLIO BY GETTY

18.The Out-of-Towners (1999)MARSHA BLACKBURN/PARAMOUNT/KOBAL/SHUTTERSTOCK

Martin and Hawn reconnected in 1999 to play empty-nesters who decide to travel to New York City as a means of coping. Hilarity, of course, ensues, but what else did you expect from two of the funniest actors of their time?

19. Town & Country (2001)NEW LINE CINEMA/GETTY

A reunion in more ways than one, Hawn played Mona, the best friend of First Wives Club costar Diane Keaton, who plays the wife of Goldie’s $ costar, Warren Beatty.
