coldjam -- do you remember the name of that movie? Please let us know so anyone interested (i.e., myself) can look it up and rent a copy.

*Maybe* it was released as "Baby Blues," but I think that that title (the one I remember) was the temporary "working title" and was changed by the time it was released.

I'm amazed that *anyone* saw that stinker, let alone still remembers it. But you're right -- the line about "Morty" (a hapless bad guy who called himself "Muerte") was definitely in there.

Bad as the movie may have been, the experience of participating in its creation was great -- especially sharing it with my boy.

If you'd like to see Cassidy at age 10, the French Market scene is fairly early in the film; he's wearing a yellow T-shirt and a blue Mets cap and is highly (though briefly) visible as he gets brushed aside by Larry Miller's character. If you'd like to see him at age 25, he's headlining the comedy show at the Telephone Bar in the East Village in Manhattan, every Thursday night until further notice except Feb 4, when he'll be visiting home for Mardi Gras week.
