"Things Change"

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

This early Mamet film is light and whinsical and well written and acted. Veteran performer Don Ameche stars as a poor immagrant shoe shiner who is asked to substitute for a mob boss about to ne indicted for murder. For an (undisclosed) large sum of money he agrees, figuring he'll get out of prison in 3-5 years and return to Sicily and buy a fishing boat with the money. Joe Montegna is a Mafia underling on probation and he is assigned as Ameche's weekend
guard and handler. He takes Ameche to Nevada for a series of encounters and adventures.
Virtually the entire rest of the cast appears with Montegna in Mamet's later "Homcide", a more serious film. Maybe some of the same music is in both as well, I'm not sure.
