Out-of-work would-be wise-guy cousins pull a caper, hijinx ensue. I never saw this movie till last week but turns out I'd known it's most famous line for 30 years. Lots of good NYC footage including inescapable twin-towers and lots of Summer Wind. Well, was it good?

About two weeks ago, me and a friend had like a 10 or 15 minute conversation about this movie. I like that you started a thread about an "old" movie. I wish youse all would do this more often.

Why don't you start some too. You're also supposed to vote

People at work have talked about this (and quoted it) often, but I've never seen it. Starting to think I will. Later

Saw this like a million years ago -- so long ago that Mickey Rourke was still thin, and recognizable, and not crazy (or at least less outwardly crazy). I remember liking it at the time but can't say now that I remember enough to comment on it or give a rating. Not sure I even remember what its 'most famous line' is.

They did an Eddie Bedbug number on him.

Never saw it. All I know about this movie is that they filmed one scene in a bar in my old Bronx neighborhood.

a lot of bad "method" acting.
