Finally finished with The Big Fix. I'm glad I stuck it out, though - at the two-thirds point we finally got a money show - Dolores Drive-In on Wilshire near La Cienega. Of course, it's meaningless in the movie itself, but oh how I would love to just go in there one more time and have my Jumbo Jim with cheese and extra z-sauce and Suzie-Q fries, and the dinner salad with oily roquefort dressing. But they tended to stick to downtown mostly. There was one scene at Harper House apartments in West Hollywood and one on Writghtwood in Studio City. But the most interesting thing and performance? The pool man. Approximately thirty seconds of screen time if that - truly weird and very funny. It was the actor's first film. Mandy Patinkin.
