80's Movie Weekend

Today's movie flashback to 1985 takes us back to a Jack Nicholson - Kathleen Turner flick that also garnered a best supporting actress Oscar for Anjelica Huston.  I never saw this movie.  It's rated R and I was only 14 when it came out, but after watching the preview, it seems very much like an 80's version of the Brad Pitt - Angelina Jolie movie "Mr. & Mrs. Smith."  Two hit-men in love hired to kill each other.  Anyway, I realize with this cast it's probably a pretty good movie that I need to check out sometime soon.  Here is "Prizzi's Honor"...

the trailer...



speaking of Anjelica Huston... you wanna do it, Charlie?...
