The movie Morelli watches and is laughing at in his motel room is 'The Return of Johnny V' a Mutt Productions film.
The story is loosely inspired by the Mexican girl chapters of Jack Kerouac's 'On The Road'.
The much sought after bag with the money used in the film is a vintage Billabong vinyl bag made in 1978 that was bought on Ebay.
Chato's compound is Limon's garage in San Antonio where Mutt productions crew members cars are serviced.
The face on the prop money used in the film is the face of actor Patrick Mackie made to look like Andrew Jackson. Patrick played the character of Jackson in promo trailer.
