"Top Secret!" was from the Zucker-Abrams team that gave us "Airplane!" and "Police Squad!" If you liked those, then see this movie.

*wild swing* "Reservoir Dogs"?

(Yes, the entire phrase was a clue.)

Here's what was said on the way to the electric chair..... "In domini patrium spiritus morbidum dio madre. Omni Gallia divisa est in tres partes. Corpus delecti. Quid pro quo. Veni, vidi, vici. Nolo contendere. Habeas corpus. Rick Dureus. Ipso facto. Pro forma. Pari passeu. Hic, hike, hoc. Huius, huius, huius. E pluribus unum. Ouriyay oingay ootay etgay iedfray inthe airchay. Tempus fugit. Caveat emptor. Coitus interruptus. Mitzi Gaynor ad nauseam. Amen." "Martin, I've been practicing. How this? 'Ist Ihr Tochter achtzehn, bitte?' "What does that mean?" " 'Is your daughter eighteen?' " Actually, it IS "Is your daughter eighteen, please" A LOT of the German in the movie was either Yiddish or German, and either made no sense in context, or was completely mistranslated, but they WERE grammatically-correct, if silly sentences.

Correct and correct!

"But with your looks, your charm... women must follow you everywhere!" "Store detectives." "So... you still desire me after all these years? The old ball and chain? " "Forever!" "I'll get them! "

If you hadn't said it was fantasy, I would have been guessing forever. Yet another movie I haven't seen but can guess about.

Thanks for cooperating. This has to be kept hush-hush.

*checks* Sorry. I have heard of this artist. I have heard of this song. I have heard this song. Except for the titular line, I have no idea of the lyrics and could not place the song to save my life. But you did give me a good, sporting chance.

My DVD of the movie has some kind of "here's an 80s classic!" stuff all over the box. This movie has comedic directorS. Based on those 2 sentences, you can at least figure out who made it!

Oh, George, how silly can you get?

-Among the locations of the movie are A Potato Farm, and Der Pizza Haus. -The concept of "skeet- surfing" was originally a joke the writer-directors came up with while joking their way through comments about what the movie would contain. It was too silly to leave out once it was suggested. -The directors were so happy to have Omar Sharif join their film that they invited him to an expensive dinner for right after his shots were done. He accepted. He also never showed. When asked, he explained that, in his culture, it was expected to accept all invitations, even if one had no plans to attend. So, the directors ended up dressed up for a fancy meal without him. - The following is a translation of a song sung in German. "Heil, Heil East Germany Land of vine and grape Land where you'll regret Any try to escape No matter if you take a running jump, Or tunnel under the wall Forget it, the guards will kill you— If the electrified fence doesn't first!"

Well, if it's fantasy, and we have a lady and a hawk (or other bird), and she has a bloodstain that MAY be from an arrow wound, maybe they're photos of the same thing and this is "Ladyhawke."

That's "Provocations" by Soren Kierkegaard.

Here's the book in question, presuming my upload works. Provocations.pdf

-One scene from this movie had characters look down from a high window down onto traffic. The traffic was visibly hamsters and mice running around a maze meant to look like traffic. The actual set-piece was a miniature from "Superman- the Movie" that they found lying around an old studio. -One of the actors had a life-mask made of his face, to make it easier to get a good makeup prosthesis for a moment in this movie. The life-mask was in storage after that for decades. About 5 years ago (give or take), it was taken out. It was scanned to prepare a CGI of the now-late actor's face for use in a movie that was then in production. -In the pizza parlor, the characters are drinking shakes. One is an actress with a strawberry shake, one is an actor with a chocolate shake, and the rest are actors with vanilla shakes. I don't know exactly why she got a strawberry shake, but the others are obvious in hindsight. -The bookstore scene has no cuts and lasts for exactly 88 seconds. I'm confident that was a coincidence, but if it was intentional, it makes sense they'd try to make the run-time a number that read the same forwards and backwards. -The lead character sings in this movie. The actor did all his own singing! -The lead actor and the actor playing the scientist later worked on another movie together. In that movie, the lead actor was the lead actor again, and the other actor didn't have a lot of screen-time again.

Definitely an 80s film.

I imagine you jumped on the pizza parlor clue. Or was it the bookstore?
