"For some reason, this movie never gets old for me. Every time I watch it I laugh a little bit harder and enjoy it a little bit more. I watched it three times in one day last week, and still wanted to watch it again a few days later. Adam Sandler is great, as well as Drew Barrymore. " [More]

"I really think Rigoletto is the one you've been looking for. The storyline matches what was described exactley.

Please keep in mind that there are many versions of this movie. " [More]

"Puhnner,I believe I may have the answer to your first movie description about the singing lessons. The movie I am thinking of is called "Rigoletto" and has a plot very similar to the one you described. It was one of my childhood favorites.

One by one, children in the town come to know Ribaldi, discovering that beneath the strange countenance is a beautiful soul. But, feeding on rumors, other people's prejudice against Ribaldi grows. And as it does, the story builds to an exciting cl ... " [More]

"Interesting you should mention that, PammyK. In fact, my cousin seems to have had the same perception of the title as your sister. She, too, had heard many people speak of this movie and thought it was called "Tala Day G'nights". Funny how that happens. Also strangely enough, another cousin of mine thought the title was "Taliban Nights" except when she said it I thought she meant "Taliban Knights". There's quite a difference and also it is but one more example of title misconceptions. " [More]
