> I love that movie! Mostly the music, of course. But I don't remember her in that part. I mostly remember the diner and the church part

The church part was hilarious :) I also liked the car chases a lot. The part where the car goes off the bridge was filmed in front of a building where I used to work, so that part always cracks me up. On music side, I especially liked the scene with Ray Charles where they show all the 50s dance steps, as well as Cab Calloway's solo, and of course the scene in the country-western bar where they perform "Rawhide". "I'm Bob, and this here is my place." "And it's a nice place, Bob!" "We have both kinds of music: country *and* western!" :)

I love the movie, too. Marl's cousin ran the auto repair operations, working all night to get cars smashed during the day ready for the next day's shooting.

I still think "Blues Brothers" holds the record for car wrecks. It's just so heart-warming.
