Re: Name That Movie!
that line kind of sums up the way I felt about the movie (OK, not everything I every wanted, but I did have some modest hopes based on the cast that my prurient interests would be satisfied, but sadly it was rated PG as I recall).
PLEASE, Please... Name That Movie!
Quite obviously another quote is needed. This should seal the deal. However, I scrambled the character's name to make it harder.
"mondRay: Yeah, we peoples."

And to give a hint, if it's the film I'm thinking of, Bobby Goldsboro would have loved it.

Based on the mention of Bobby Goldsboro (which I believe references the song 'Elusive Butterfly of Love') , I'm going to guess
