Get Shorty (1995)
The mob is tough, but it’s nothing like show business.
Starring John Travolta, Gene Hackman, Rene Russo
Directed by Barry Sonnenfeld
Chili Palmer is a Miami mobster who gets sent by his boss, the psychopathic 'Bones' Barboni, to collect a bad debt from Harry Zimm, a Hollywood producer who specializes in cheesy horror films. When Chili meets Harry's leading lady, the romantic sparks fly. After pitching his own life story as a movie idea, Chili learns that being a mobster and being a Hollywood producer really aren't all that different.
