This is a little off-topic, but I'm watching Primary Colors on AMC and they just had a graphic while cutting to a commercial equating the characters with Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, James Carville, etc.
I thought that was odd because the filmakers have denied it.

Favorite scene:
Mysterious lady: You miserable slug. You think you can talk you're way out of this? You betrayed me.
Jake: No I didn't. Honest. I ran outta gas. I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from outta town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake, a terrible flood, locust's. It wasn't my fault, I swear to God!

I thought that was odd because the filmakers have denied it.They had to, at the time, to get it made. Of course everyone saw right through that. Or maybe it was tongue-in-cheek. Nobody was believing those denials, were they?
But now AMC can say their commercial is satire and get away with it.

Nobody was believing those denials, were they? I never did; still, I thought it was rather odd.

Its 200 miles to Chicago. We got a half a pack of cigarettes, a full tank of gas, its dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

Jake's moment of divine illumination at the Rev. Cleophas James' Church.

Definitely. Me and Cyborg've got to slide on down to the Triple Rock and catch Reverend CLEE-ophas.

I LOVE that movie!
One Halloween, my friend and dressed up as Jake and Elwood.
Since I was tall, I got to be Ellwood. From that day on, some called me the bastard son of Ellwood Blues.
