TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY TANGI QUEMENER Andrea Pruett, owner of the Bagdad Cafe poses on May 29, 2008 in the Mojave Desert on Route 66, in Newberry Springs, California. The establishment used in the movie "Bagdad Cafe", about 40 miles (64 km) west of the original Bagdad site on historic Route 66 outside the town of Newberry Springs, was originally named the Sidewinder Cafe, but after its use as a filming location was later changed to the Bagdad Cafe. The movie, also known as "Out of Rosenheim", is a 1987 film directed by Percy Adlon with Marianne S?gebrecht (Jasmin), CCH Pounder (Brenda), Jack Palance (Rudi Cox), Christine Kaufmann (Debby) and Monica Calhoun (Phyllis). The film, a US/German production, is a somewhat surreal comedy set in a down-at-heel truck-stop cafe and motel in the Mojave Desert.
