Great, now I need Scilian pizza, and we are in the beginnings of a blizzard.

No, no, and can't help you with the pizza...

It's ok, I'm not eating pizza anyway. I'm making a big pot of Indian butter chicken and another pot of jeweled rice. I'll survive

Re: Name That Movie!
The picture is of "The Bickersons"; Don Ameche and Frances Langford.
So I'm guessing one of these two people were in the cast of the movie in question.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

Re: Name That Movie!
So we've got three guys in a line and now Sicilian coins? These three shot Don Ameche, so it must be this obscure Italian film

Re: Name That Movie!
Okay to summarize for the benefit of anyone who wasn't here over the weekend:
Here are the quote clues so far:
It's a gangster comedy that starred Don Ameche. I'll add also that Ameche plays two roles in the flick, and the movie was made in the late eighties.
With all of that if nobody gets it by the end of the day, I'm going to give the answer and post a new one.

Babe, this is the guy behind the guy behind the guy.
One more:This is a Sicilian coin. The Sicilian people say, "A big man knows the value of small coin." My friendship is a small coin but it is all I have to offer you.
Non quote clues:A: Amico mio, do mi cuore
[My friend, I give my heart]
B: I haven't heard that in 35 years!

The last clue gave it to me--Things Change?
Re: Name That Movie!
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096259/?ref_=ttqt_qt_ttGino, an Italian-American shoe-shiner with a remarkable similarity to a certain mafia don, is paid to take the rap for a murder. Jerry, a two-bit gangster on probation, is given a chance for redemption by guarding Gino for the weekend. But instead of sitting around a dingy hotel room, Jerry decides to give Gino a weekend to remember, taking him to Lake Tahoe. Jerry's bragging to his friends of his important charge, as well as Gino's dignified, quiet demeanor, soon result in much complication for them both.
I didn't see it when it came out; I watched it a couple of years ago on a friend's recommendation. It's pretty funny, and Ameche's performance is outstanding. (It has some elements similar to Being There, but Ameche's character isn't really as clueless as Chauncey Gardner)

I don't think I ever heard of it. But that's no surprise.
