Angie is a 1994 American romantic comedy-drama film directed by Martha Coolidge, and starring Geena Davis as the titular character. It is based on the 1991 novel Angie, I Says by Avra Wing, which was a New York Times Notable Book of 1991.
Angie (Geena Davis) is an office worker who lives in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn, New York and dreams of a better life. After learning that she is pregnant by her boyfriend Vinnie (James Gandolfini), she decides that she will have the baby, but not Vinnie as a husband.
This turns the entire neighborhood upside down and starts her on a journey of self-discovery, including a love affair with a man named Noel (Stephen Rea) who she meets at an art museum. Even her best friend Tina (Aida Turturro) has trouble understanding her.
The film opened to mixed reviews and was a box office bomb. In addition, Geena Davis, who won an Oscar six years before for The Accidental Tourist received mixed to negative reviews. Critics felt she could have been better in this movie or another set in Brooklyn: originally, Madonna was to play the title character, but dropped out at the last minute. The film was famous for introducing three actors who would star on the TV show The Sopranos: James Gandolfini, Aida Turturro, and Michael Rispoli.
Angie is the first album recorded by the Latina R&B vocalist Angela Bofill. It was produced by the GRP Records label heads Dave Grusin and Larry Rosen. It was released in 1978 on the GRP label; a digitally remastered version was released on Buddah Records in 2001.
The album was heralded as a mild success, popularizing on some of the themes of the times. The song, "This Time I'll Be Sweeter", charted fairly well on the U.S R&B front. Being the first of her kind to do so, Bofill's sophisticated vocals would prove to have an effect on the jazz, Latin and urban contemporary music audiences of the time.
I got a word, a word or two,
I'm gonna say to you.
You're drivin', drivin' me wild,
When I see you smile a smile.
There's nothing you can do or say,
That will keep me far enough way.
Chorus:
Stick, stick, stick like glue,
Yeah, I'm stuck to you.
Stick, stick, stick like glue,
Now I'll never get loose.
Gonna say it once more,
Before I come knockin' on you door.
I've been thinkin', thinkin' of you,
And you're stickin' to me like glue.
You got me spinnin' around and round,
And I don't know if I'll ever come down
Chorus:
Stick, stick, stick like glue,
Yeah, I'm stuck to you.
Stick, stick, stick like glue,
Now I'll never get loose.
