lowing year makes The Untouchables . And I could not figure out why until I realized he is also from Newark NJ, so he is apart of that NJ crew. The writers are George Gallo, mostly known for writing Midnight Run , but that is 1988, so this is his first film. And Norman Steinberg, who is known for cowriting Blazing Saddles and Johnny Dangerously, which De Palma loved. So makes sense he would get people that worked on that flick. The pro ducer was Aaron Russo, no relation to the Russo Brothers of Marvel fame, but he did produce Trading Places with Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd, so he also knew good comedy. The people that put this together, Thank You.

At this point I normally hit you with my favorite part of any flick. The quotes. I will leave you with the only one that I use to this day.

“Thank You Mr. Acavano”

When this shows up in the movie the first time, you will laugh, by the 6th time it will become a part of your vocabulary. My father and I have been saying this back and forth to one another since the 90s, so we love this flick. Last little fact, the rumor is my cousin Rickey is in the background when they were filming a scene I believe in Atlantic City. Probably a Uchrin/Collucci urban legend, but makes this flick even more loved by me. Looks like Amazon has it for rent for the normal four bucks. Like I always say, give it a shot and if you hate it, find me and I have four singles to hand you back. I just don’t think anyone is asking for a refund. Wait! Have You Not Seen... Let It Ride?

Which after spending a bunch of years working in video stores and watching pretty much every movie I could get my hand on for 25+ years, I hope I have at least two or three more in me. Here is another title that my dad and uncle loved. Another one of the Uchrin family classics that I believe I have bought for my dad on VHS and now on DVD. Which come to think of it, last time I was home he has neither VHS nor DVD hooked up to the television in my basement. He will need to fix that so I can ask him what his favorite part of this flick is. Another movie set I in the 80s: no one has a cellphone, not a pager to be seen. But it starts at a local convenience store, or what appears to be one on the outside. Really early in the morning and we are introduced to two cabbies: the first… Jay Trotter, seems like a normal cab driver, played by the great Richard Dreyfuss. And his fellow cab driver, Looney. Looney is played by the wonderful David Johansen. I will get back to them in a sec-
