I Just Drive the Limo

In this quiet portrait of actor Burt Young, we see a man holding a sign reading "Bruce Springsteen" from the movie "Back to School" in which Burt plays Lue, the trusted muscle/ side kick/ chauffeur to Rodney Dangerfield's character who is a rich businessman. In this scene form the movie, Rodney's character is trying get in line to sign up for his next semesters classes in which he is opposed to waiting in line for like all the rest of the ordinary collage kids. He turns to his trusted sidekick and ask if Lue can take care of these lines. In the next scene we see now in the painting, we find Lue outside by the limo holding a sign as if he is waiting to pick up the “Boss" himself. And while a nearby college student ask if he really is here, Lue responds, "I don't know kid, I just drive the limo."
