Harvey Keitel plays a small-time thief who performs as an organ grinder on the boardwalk at Venice Beach in Monkey Trouble, available from Shopville on DVD.
A movie only a kid could love, which was the whole point. His scam involves his monkey, which has been trained to pick pockets. Now a mob boss wants to borrow the monkey to pull off some big scores--but the monkey runs away and is adopted by a lonely little girl (Thora Birch).
She finds herself in increasingly hot water when her new pet starts bringing her the valuables of everyone in the neighborhood. Birch is a natural young actress, while Keitel hams it up shamelessly (he reportedly made the film to amuse his young daughter).
