The Blues Brothers

Movie (1980)

Hilarious farce, based on the characters from American TV's Saturday Night Live. Lovable criminals Jake and Elwood Blues visit the Chicago orphanage where they were raised - but when they discover it will be closed down unless the nuns who run it pay the taxes they owe, Jake launches a desperate mission to revive the old Blues Brothers Band to raise money for its salvation. Completely nutty from start to finish, with John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd as the deadpan anti-heroes and a supporting cast to die for - Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Ray Charles, Cab Calloway, Carrie Fisher, John Candy, John Lee Hooker and none other than Steven Spielberg in a cameo at the finale
