Glenn: In "Wings of Desire," Peter Falk (playing himself) is taking a walk in Berlin, and sees a derelict train station. He's remembereing his (German, I guess), grandmother talking about a train station, the big one, "Not the one where all the trains stop, but the one where all the stations stop."

It is NOT exactly in keeping with the plot of the movie that Falk should have a German grandmother to remember, if you remember it...but in that scene, he does.

Barry, I've sent you capsule descriptions of all 5 of the movies.

The new Forum I joined "groups@yahoogroup1919BlackSox:--or something like that, has some serious questions about 8 men out. Not just the movie, but the book as well. I enjoyed both a lot. Asinov wrote a follow-up called "Bleeding between the Lines,' which is really about Susskind trying to steal the rights to his book, but he gets in a conversation with Hap felch and some other juicy stuff.
