My Poor Mom...Plus...movie title needed...

Larry_OHF · 12-16-2002, 10:15 PM

I called my mom up just now to ask her the name of a movie, because it is one we watched a long time ago. No, my poor mom is getting kinda absent-minded...if you understand me. The Phone call went like this:

Larry: Mom! I need your help!
Mom: Okay.
Larry: I am trying to remember the name of a movie.
Mom: Alright.
Larry: I wanted to see if you would remember. Are you ready?
Mom: Okay, I am trying to remember...
Larry:...er...I haven't told you about it yet.

Well, anyway...this is the movie, and I hope you all can help me remember it's name.

There's his woman that has incredible bad luck. She is so accident-prone that she gets herself lost south of the Border. Now, her rich father has payed alot of detectives to find her with on success. Finally, they decid to hire a guy that is amazingly just as accident-prone as she is. They feel that if he can have enough accidents along the way, he'd eventually trip right over her! That is almost what happens. He wakes up in a hospital one day and finds her sleeping in the cot next to his. She had been living in Mexico, not remembering who she was, for amnesia. At the end of the movie, they kinda wander out of the hospital and onto a raft in the river that accidently sets float and begins drifting downstream toward a waterfall.

LOL, Larry, that sounds like my mother-in-law. Is it Going South?? BTW, Galadria just sent you a [img]graemlins/kiss.gif[/img] . She said that you would know why.

Hmmm...I tried typing in that name in my movie search engines, but it must be too old to verify. I will go to Blockbuster to tomorrow and look for that one. Thanks, whether it is or is not. I hope it is!
