Richard Romanus and Robert Romanus are cool cinematic brothers. Here are two similar scenes involving two similar characters (with the same first name) in completely different movies: Martin Scorsese's MEAN STREETS in which Richard, as "Mike," is conning a couple teenagers into buying illegal firecrackers and Robert, in FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH, as "Mike Damone," is scalping tickets to kids. Well, as it turns out, both Mikes are hustlers, although at least the kids in FAST TIMES get what they paid for.
