    • Trivia
      Lenore's apartment scenes were filmed in Sunnyside, NY. The apartment was converted from a existing dental office. The dentist was paid a hefty price for the use of his office for a one month period. When the filming was over the distraught dentist claimed damages and said it wasn't worth the price to close his practice for the filming.

      The briefcase Cookie is to deliver to Atlantic City is supposed to contain $2,000,000. That would require 20,000 $100 bills that would weigh 20,000 grams, or just over 44 pounds (~20 kg). It is clearly lighter than that and is too small to contain 200 packs of 100 x $100 bills.

    A very entertaining Mafia parody!

    This was about a godfather type mafioso (Peter Falk) that was just released after spending 19 years in prison. He makes up with his daughter (Emily Lloyd) and together they pull a real caper on the other head of the crime family, in addition to doing a con job on the local DA to help him snuff out the other family head. A very funny movie. It was good to see Peter Falk in a part where he was the criminal instead of the detective. Bob Gunton, who played the warden in the Shawshank Redemption is the DA. Also watch for Jerry Lewis.
