Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Hivemind brain help, please.

I have dim memories of seeing a foreign film clip during the Academy Awards (don't remember what year, but fairly recent past) that had to do with a competing falafel sellers, I think. I wish I remembered more details, but there seemed to be a level of humor, though I'm not sure if it was a true comedy. I almost want to say there was a Romeo/Juliet edge to it also, but I could be making that up.

Does anyone have any clue what I am asking about?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Catherine Keener and Sandra Bullock both played Harper Lee in the two different Capote movies.

Boy, I'd give a great deal to have seen that.

Scrappy also saw the legendary stage production of Burn This with Joan Allen and John Malkovich.

She took excellent advantage of her time in Manhattan.

Wasn't that something like One Man, One Cart? About street vendors in NYC?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Did they both play Ned Kelley?

They did! You win your Australian criminals spotter's badge.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

When did Fiennes play Zeus, juliana?

Isn't he Zeus in the new Clash of the Titans?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Bob Hoskins and Mark Sheppard (ok, this one is totally cheating)

What is this one and why is it cheating? Did Sheppard play a younger version of the same character as Hoskins in the same movie?
