[Curtis, baby]

No soft fiction? Immensely disappointed!

[MrCarmady]

How is Fascination so low?! Should I add this list to Letterboxd/ICM or is someone on it already?

[Roscoe]

LIFE OF BRIAN is a Terry Jones film, isn't it? Gilliam just did the animation and that one special sequence, as I recall.

[rischka]

ok i made a list

unless mrcarmady did so already? i dunno

sad to see the 'big 3' at the top. shoulda saved my alien vote for lupin :p

[MrCarmady]

A line from this year's Fassbinder (or one of them) found its way into a song by... Falco?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0m7bHdcq87o

[MrCarmady]

Man, that song is such a banger. What's the line?

[...]

That's great! I dig me some Falco. Purposefully, the first CD I ever bought was Falco 3, so I don't wanna hear any sass about his music. Heh.

[Lencho of the Apes]

\the line?

In the movie's subtitles, the line was "Mom! The man with the cocaine is here!"

[MrCarmady]

\the line?

In the movie's subtitles, the line was "Mom! The man with the cocaine is here!"

The plot thickens.

According to this, it's a song that originated in the 1920s??

German Wikipedia confirms it and dates it even earlier:

[Lencho of the Apes]

Oh, it's a Weimar thing that both of them were quoting? That's even more wonderfuller.
