I sure do. I think we kind of took for granted just how talented he was. Gregory Hines was hilarious in this film and had great chemistry with Crystal. Just the look on his face or the inflection in his voice would make me laugh at lines I wouldn't think were funny otherwise.

The man could sing, dance, act, entertain, create and just plain charm the pants off of anyone. He introduced us to so many things. I believe that he is sorely missed by many and I can truly say that I am one of them.

Edit: I guess the pants scene got into my subliminal.

I've just watched it for the first time ever, how on earth have I missed this gem!

Fantastic film, I love the 80s feel to it.
