Altoona, Pennsylvania.

Ladies, if you’re thinking of placing a
giant eye tattoo right above your breasts, don’t... just don’t.

Movie If: You know that jewellery doesn't always sell itself.
Really?: So
wait... a hot, 20-something female jewellery store employee hits on the store’s
70s-something owner, and he doesn’t suspect anything
until items start to go missing?
Rating: Diamond Men is an intelligent, and
well-written character-driven drama about an soon-to-be-retired jewellery salesman
who is forced by his boss to show the ropes to a younger (and much more
obnoxious) man. Robert Forster and Donnie Wahlberg (former New Kid on the
Block, and older brother to Mark) share some great comedic chemistry, and the
film even features a cameo by Jasmine Guy (best remembered for the Cosby Show
spinoff A Different World) as a sexy
Madame. Highly recommended. 9/10 stars.
