I'm searching for the title of a movie for my sister... her recollection is ridiculously minor and I don't know if it's enough for you movie buffs, but here goes.

The only scene she remembers is one where several people (seeminly main characters) are singing the song "Stop in the name of love". They're "acting out" the song as the sing it, with hands poised in front of them (hand signal for 'stop').

She also thinks that the movie might include secret passageways....

Thanks for your help

Having done only a cursory search, the song appears on relatively few soundtracks, and the only two from our eighties focus are Cannonball Run 2 and More American Grafitti - neither of which have secret passageways in them as far as I recall...

Can your sister remember anything else - like an actor that might have been in it? That would help us....

Although - didn't they do this song in Sister Act? That had a lot of 'people hiding from other people' in it, which may be where the idea of secret passages comes from?

Hmmm...

I've not seen More American Graffiti... do the actors actually dance/act out this song in the movie?

Its definately not Sister Act.

Thanks ... Paul?.

I think Paul's right, I think it's Cannonball Run 2. Here's a link to a picture: www.moviebox.se/film/photo/cannonballrun2/

Ball! Cannonball!
Ball! Cannonball!

Am I the only loser that loved that song, and loved those movies, totally different, but both great.
