    farce...not bad...
    When nardo has a hard time paying the bills, he's ready to take drastic measures to earn extra money. So he becomes an escort for rich, older women. It's a tongue in cheek farce; the italian family guy getting threatened by the mob, doing whatever he can to raise money. His wife is sure he's cheating. Their accents all come and go. James gandolfini is in here, a couple years before sopranos. The awesome rita moreno, as isabella. It moves kind of slow, but its a fun tale. Directed by roberto monticello, who was also a minister of the legendary conch republic. Check it out... it has its own wikipedia page. Fun stuff.
