Freddie accepts Jake's bet, putting up the remainder of Jake's contract (if she wins the bet, the contract becomes void; if she loses, another five years will be added). He then ups the ante: if Jake loses, she must also sleep with him. The problem is that Freddie can select the man, and he selects an obnoxious [[New York City|New York]] cabbie named Nick Martinelli ([[Sylvester Stallone]]). Nick not only has no musical talent whatsoever, he claims to hate country music "worse than liver". Realizing she is stuck with Nick, Jake takes him back to the hills of [[Tennessee]] for a two-week crash course in how to walk, talk, and sing like a genuine country star. ==Cast== * [[Sylvester Stallone]] as Nick Martinelli * [[Dolly Parton]] as Jake Farris * [[Richard Farnsworth]] as Noah Farris (Jake's Father) * [[Ron Leibman]] as Freddie Ugo (Rhinestone Owner) * [[Tim Thomerson]] as Barnett Kale ==Production== Stallone reportedly turned down ''[[Romancing the Stone]]'' and ''[[Beverly Hills Cop]]'' (1984) to make ''Rhinestone''. Original screenwriter [[Phil Alden Robinson]] was so offended by Stallone's reworking of his original screenplay that he briefly considered having his name removed from the film's credits. He was later convinced that having his name on a film of this "caliber" would look good on his resume. ==Reception== The film was almost universally panned upon its release, and is generally regarded as a commercial and critical flop; on review aggregator [[Rotten Tomatoes]], the film currently has an 11% 'Fresh' rating.<ref>{{rotten-tomatoes|rhinestone|Rhinestone}}</ref> Nonetheless, the soundtrack album gave Dolly Parton two top ten country singles: "[[Tennessee Homesick Blues]]" and "God Won't Get You". ==Awards== * '''[[Golden Raspberry Awards]]''' :'''Won:''' [[Razzie Award for Worst Actor|Worst Actor]] ([[Sylvester Stallone]]) :'''Won:''' [[Razzie Award for Worst "Original" Song|Worst "Original" Song]] (''Drinkenstein'') :'''Nominated:''' [[Razzie Award for Worst Picture|Worst Picture]] :'''Nominated:''' [[Razzie Award for Worst Screenplay|Worst Screenplay]] :'''Nominated:''' [[Razzie Award for Worst Musical Score|Worst Musical Score]] :'''Nominated:''' [[Razzie Award for Worst Supporting Actor|Worst Supporting Actor]] ([[Ron Leibman]]) :'''Nominated:''' [[Razzie Award for Worst Director|Worst Director]] ([[Bob Clark]]) :'''Nominated:''' [[Razzie Award for Worst "Original" Song|Worst "Original" Song]] (''Sweet Lovin' Friends'') ==References== {{reflist}} ==External links== * {{imdb title|0088001|Rhinestone}} * {{mojo title|rhinestone|Rhinestone}} * {{rotten-tomatoes|rhinestone|Rhinestone}} {{Bob Clark}} {{Sylvester Stallone}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Rhinestone (Film)}} [[Category:1984 films]] [[Category:1980s comedy films]] [[Category:American films]] [[Category:American comedy films]] [[Category:English-language films]] [[Category:Films directed by Bob Clark]] [[Category:Country music films]] [[Category:20th Century Fox films]] [[es:Rhinestone]] [[it:Nick lo scatenato]] [[hu:Énekes izompacsirta]] [[no:Rhinestone (film)]] [[pl:Kryształ górski (film)]] [[ru:Горный хрусталь (фильм)]] [[fi:Rhinestone]] [[sv:Rhinestone]]'
