Found a new one!!

"The Man Who Loved Women" (1983) the Blake Edwards remake, has a tiki bar scene with Burt Reynolds and Julie Andrews that's worth checking out. (The movie is not). They go sailing for a day, and end up at a bar which could be Catalina(??) It looks real, not a set, and there's tons of peanut mugs and 3-face buckets behind the bar. Some interesting lamps and masks as they walk in. The staff are wearing white T-shirts with a single large colorful fish on the front. Sadly, Burt orders a tequilla sunrise. Any ideas anyone? Someone please rent this kinda lousy movie and tell me!

EDIT: I saw it on Comcast On Demand for free on my digital cable, so some of you might find it there- just fast forward to the scene. Trust me. Save yourselves.
