42 years ago today, July 20, 1984, Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong posed with their "Bronze Taco" award at a press conference on Melrose Boulevard in Hollywood, California, to promote their upcoming film, Cheech & Chong's The Corsican Brothers, which opened in theaters the following week. The photograph was taken by famed photographer Ron Galella.
Marin and Chong had achieved massive success throughout the 1970s and early 1980s through their stand-up comedy, comedy albums, and film franchise, becoming one of the most recognizable comedy duos of the era. The Corsican Brothers, released July 27, 1984, marked their sixth feature film together and their final movie collaboration before the duo split up later that decade.
