Jefferson in Paris

Jefferson in Paris is a 1995 Franco-American historical drama film, directed by James Ivory, and previously entitled Head and Heart. The screenplay, by Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, is a semi-fictional account of Thomas Jefferson's tenure as the Ambassador of the United States to France before his Presidency


clearly not a 'Foreign Language' film, but that's not the card... so, ehhh. top that.

Tough choices. I would love to pick Jefferson In Paris, for reminding me that Nick Nolte -- Nick Nolte! -- once played a founding father. But as a part-American production, I don't think it qualifies.

Point to Vorret, for nominating a Finnish Samuel Jackson movie that I've never even heard of.

I will run with...

Children of Heaven
The film is about a boy who loses his sister's shoes. He takes them to the cobbler for repairs, and on the way home, when he stops to pick up vegetables for his mother, a blind trash collector accidentally carries them away. Of course, the boy, named Ali, is afraid to tell his parents. Of course, his sister, named Zahra, wants to know how she is supposed to go to school without shoes. The children feverishly write notes to each other, right under their parent's noses.

The answer is simple: Zahra will wear Ali's sneakers to school every morning, and then run home so that Ali can put them on for his school in the afternoon.

I have no idea what any of those movies are but from the trailers I've watched and the description this one seems to b the most fitting. Point!

The Glass Bottom Boat

Doris Day is an actress at a glass-bottom boat tour group, and swims around wearing mermaid bottoms and flippers.

(Man, it took me forever to pull that one out. I will never complain about all of the REALLY crappy movies that my dad liked to subject me to.)

Those old 60's romcoms had bunches of make out scenes. A couple in the trailer here.
