Zep reference in movie



Hey everyone,

Not sure if anyone had mentioned this before but I just though of another (slight) Zep reference in a movie - "The Cure" (1995), with actors Brad Renfro and Joseph Mazzello. Renfro is the same actor who played the kid in "The Client" wearing the Zep shirt. I've read in interviews that he plays guitar and is a huge Zep fan (especially Jimmy), so I don't think it's any coincidence that Zep references showed up in 2 of his movies. Anyway, I don't remember the lines exactly but... at some point in the movie the 2 boys are floating down a river on a raft, and the conversation goes something like this:

Mazzello: What does your dad do?
Renfro: You ever heard of a rock group called Led Zeppelin?
M: No
R: Well, they're really great. They've got this guitar played named Jimmy Page....
M: Is that your dad?
R:  No, but.... my dad sold him his car insurance... for a Pontiac Trans Am


Sorry I can't remember it exactly.....but something to that effect. Does anyone else remember seeing this? Otherwise, it's a pretty cute movie.
