Despite her gold tooth and ludicrous hooker outfits, Berry looks gorgeous, which is the only positive thing that can be said about this clichéd disaster. Leaving behind boyfriends and their aimless Georgia lives, Nisi (Berry) and Mickey (Desselle) head West hoping to land roles in a music video. They fail but do land a $10,000 gig keeping a rich old man, Mr. Blakemore (Landau), happy in his dying days. Funny for about 15 minutes, the plot plunges into sentimentality.
