    The best movie he was in was Spanglish. He was terrible as usual but the little actress who played Paz Vegas’ daughter was amazing. I only watch that movie is because of her acting.

    Toasted white bread. Three slices. Between two the usual BLT ingredients. But on the back of one slice, melted cheese and then a fried egg and then the 3rd slice. Saw it in an Adam Sandler film called Spanglish. Will never disappoint.

    If it's anything like Wyoming, I'd believe it in a heartbeat. I live in Texas & have worked with enough Hispanics some Spanglish is just part of my regular vocabulary. I said something to my son in Spanish & it was like something from a movie. Literally everyone in the store turned around, glaring

    August 22, 1987 Madonna hits #1 in the US with her Spanglish ("Quien es esta nina?") hit "Who's That Girl." It's the title song to a movie starring Madonna that doesn't fare nearly as well. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCXa...

    Sounds nice. Have you ever made the Spanglish sandwich, basically a BLT with a fried egg? I am not usually someone who tries "movie food" but that's a pretty good sandwich. I am not a big fan of mayo, but there is something magical about a tomato sandwich, especially if you put onion on it.

    She'd get me clothes that were too small, I swear she did it on purpose. Like in that one movie, Spanglish, where the mom gets her daughter clothes that are too small for her to "motivate" her to lose weight. That's basically what I think she did to me. Because it was literally like all clothes.
