Did You Know?
| Trivia | Robert De Niro learned to play the saxophone (in three months) in order to make his performance look more authentic. Unfortunately, his sax playing still had to be overdubbed and it is veteran jazz musician George Auld who does the playing and also plays a band leader. See more » |

I guess a little small talk's in order here now. Francine: Can it get any smaller? Jimmy: Now look I can take a hint. Francine: Can you also take a walk? Jimmy: Do you want me to leave? Francine: YES! Jimmy: I'll leave right now. Francine: BYE Jimmy: You expect me to leave after the way you just talked to me? Francine: Will you go away? Jimmy: I don't want to. I want to stay here and annoy you. See more » |
