Trivia:
The script was originally written in 1935 by Endre Bohem, but sat on the shelf until 1990, when his son Leslie Bohem found it upon his father's death. He fell in love with the script and, after updating it for the 90's, sought to have it finally filmed.

Has anyone ever wonder what happens to that twenty dollar bill we received from the bank and we use to pay for an item a few minutes after? Well, that's the basic premise of this little gem of a movie. We saw it in its original release and were happily surprised to have "discovered" it. Unfortunately, this low budget indie by director Keva Rosenfeld and written by Leslie and Endre Bohem, didn't go far, as one would have wanted it to go. We caught it again on cable and in second viewing it still holds its promise.
Keva Rosenfeld has to be either well connected, or highly respected because the cast she put together is amazing. We see faces in the film from distinguished actors like Steve Buscemi, Brendan Fraser, Elizabeth Shue, Linda Hunt, William H. Macy, David Schwimmer, and the others. Of course, most of them had not achieved recognition at the time, but their talent was all there for us to see and enjoy.
The film follows that twenty dollar bill until its surprising end at the bank when Angeline, the homeless woman, receives a brand new twenty in exchange for the original, but dilapidated bill.
This movie will delight anyone who wants to spend a happy time with a surprising and warm film.
