Excess Baggage (1997)

I saw this a long time ago and wanted to check it out again. Benicio Del Toro is just starting to get noticed after The Usual Suspects, but you can see his potential instantly. Alicia Silverstone was perfect for this role. Christopher Walken is great as the tough uncle and Harry Connick Jr. is terrific. Far better actor than singer in my book.

This overlooked runaway romance is much better than people might think. Go on, give it a try.
