Earlier than that.

"A Better Tomorrow"?

Absolutely correct!

This movie was very popular in France:

I would say it's a modern remake of Ladri di Biciclette, but baldy looks too funny for such a movie. I say I dont know.

I know it. In France it's called "Bienvenue chez les ch'tis". This film is the most successful film ever been shown in France and tells the story of a postal officer who's been transferred from the sunny south to the grey and belgian-close northern France region.

When I was in Paris, I watched it and wondered how it was possible to make a translation of this film.

Ah... So this the movie my friends recommend me... Unfortunately I dont remember the title.

Usul is correct! I think the english title was "Welcome to the Sticks".

Ok, here is my favourite actor who had been such a masterpiece of an actor that he completely outshined stars like Bruce Willis or Kevin Costner in major productions from the late 80's and early 90's.

This is .....?

Alan Rickman in Die Hard?

Usul · Post by **Usul** » Tue Apr 14, 2009 1:21

Exactly!

For the trivia:
In the German version of Die Hard 1, Hans Gruber became Jack Gruber and his companions of the "Radical West-German Volksfrei Movement" became Irish terrorists. WTF?!

Go on scythe.

Ah, the famous Grubers of Ireland.

This movie caused a massive ruckus back then as the springboard for a famous horror writer/director. Just remade.
