From vehicular transport to a big green ogre, I hope you have some fun with these.
I love John Turturro, so here are two hintlets:
Illuminata is set in the early days of theatre
Romance & Cigarettes is set in the borough of Queens; it's a musical populated by working-class people a bit like another one by Leonard Bernstein.

They say that love makes the world go round. Here are two new reviews and three with one vote looking for the love votes.
Fun Facts:- Night After Night stars George Raft and Mae West.
- At the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Israel the cafeteria that was the site of a terrorist bombing is named after Frank Sinatra.
- Cheeni Kum is about an older man (December) in love with a younger woman (May).
- In Goin' to Town, a dance hall girl, Cleo Borden, inherits lots of money but her new money doesn't help her when she falls in love with the Earl of Stratton. (There a place in London called Earl's Court. "Courting" is another way of saying that someone is engaging in courtship or wooing (what we'd call dating today).)
- No Exit is Jean-Paul Sarte's play about his vision of Hell.

Meet the Robinsons was a recent Disney movie.
The Freshman is a comedy about a college freshman that unexpectedly gets involved with the mafia.
A fakir is a kind of a Muslim holy man.
The main character in Final Fantasy VII is named Cloud and much of the action in the film takes place in a futuristic city. This shouldn't be confused with Cloud City, where some of The Empire Strikes Back takes place.
A referee in a baseball game is called an umpire. |

The word has a Sufi connotation, but, even so, a fakir is not regarded as a Muslim holy man. At least, not among Muslims. In fact, it refers, almost universally, to a type of Hindi holy man - some without any definitive religious beliefs.
Still, it's a very funny review, man! Kudos!

Yeah, I know. "Discovery" had a better ring to it, no pun intended.

R.V.
In R.V. Robin Williams is in trouble (in the vernacular 'in the shit') with his family, especially when they realise he has combined a road trip holiday with a work commitment. There is a scene in the film where he is literally in the shit. |
