CharlieT Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 The Oscar winning lead actor has a famous uncle and aunt in the business. He's a director and she acts. All three have different last names (at least they are known by differing names). Link to post Share on other sites
cmvgor Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Aha! *Trapped In Paradise* ?? Link to post Share on other sites
CharlieT Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Why, yes indeed, it is *Trapped in Paradise*. Nicholas Cage says this to Jon Lovitz, his pathological liar brother. His kleptomaniac brother is played by Dana Carvey using his "Mickey Rourke" face. Link to post Share on other sites
cmvgor Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Whew! Actually, that's the plot I had in mind when I named *Quick Change*. Now another quote, and this one irks me. I can name the film, and the person addressed (actor and character). so that's all I'll ask from anyone else. If someone can name the actress who speaks the line, that's extra. The Quote: "Relationships?!! Guys like you aren't relationships; you're exersize!" Link to post Share on other sites
cmvgor Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 The movie is a sequel, filmed in the early 80s, with only a few characters carried over from the origional, filmed in the late 70s. Link to post Share on other sites
cmvgor Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 The context of the story: Getting into Showbiz; looking for the breaks; laboring at other jobs to support oneself in the meantime. NYC setting. Link to post Share on other sites

CharlieT Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 *Staying Alive*? Link to post Share on other sites
cmvgor Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Bingo re *Staying Alive* .Night-spot waiter John Travolta (considering himself a dancer) got propositioned by a woman customer who wanted some action. His response was somewhat prusumptuous, and she found it necessary to put him in his place. I think she was just in a one-scene walk-on, but I wish I knew the actress' name. CharlieT's thread.
