Forty years ago this month, on July 25, 1980, to be exact, a small-budget snobs-versus-slobs summer comedy about the underpaid caddies and overprivileged members of a lily-white country club called Bushwood opened in theaters across the U.S. It was hardly a Cinderella story upon its release. The critics were brutal, and the film struggled to find success at the box office. At least at first. Over the years, Caddyshack would go on to become nothing short of a pop culture phenomenon. It was a film distinctly of its time, yet it ended up building its audience after that time had passed.
