Nick Deezy: I have something for you.
Consuelo: Here. It's an aphrodisiac. It's made from the horn of rhinoceros and dried rabbit glands.
[hands a pill to Nick]
Nick Deezy: But no sugar, I hope. Ooh! Are there rhinoceroses in a garage in New Jersey?
Consuelo: What?
Nick Deezy: A garage in New Jersey. I swear that's where this was made.

I will talk about the choice comedy, fine sound track,
28 March 2000 | by (edge of the world-Coos Bay OR) – See all my reviews

This is a light hearted film featuring a knock out comedy performance by Cindi Lauper. Jeff Goldblum is charming, bemused and droll and Peter Falk is so funny. They all wind up in South America seeking "a room of gold", and dancing a lovely tango.

The scenery is beautiful, the music lush.

I consider this movie a friend.
