- <p> "I'm a BLT down sort of person, and I think you're looking
- for someone a little more pheasant under glass," quips Frankie.
- Ah, yes, comedy and romance. Hollywood's learned the combo
- rings up big bucks at the box office, so you can bet it'll be
- exploited again and again. On deck is Frankie and Johnny,
- directed by Garry Marshall of Pretty Woman fame. Starring AL
- PACINO and MICHELLE PFEIFFER, the film is about a short-order
- cook and a waitress trying to have a romance. Marshall calls it
- a more realistic love tale. "The film is dedicated to all those
- women who think Prince Charming got hit by a truck, and the guys
- who are sure Cinderella is locked away somewhere and won't be
- showing up."
