Re: Name That Movie!
You are, all of you, amateurs. And international affairs should never be run by gentlemen amateurs. Do you have any idea of what sort of place the world is becoming all around you? The days when you could just act out of your noble instincts, are over. Europe has become the arena of realpolitik, the politics of reality. If you like: real politics. What you need is not gentlemen politicians, but real ones. You need professionals to run your affairs, or you're headed for disaster!

Since you claimed it Jim, I'll defer to you; the rest of you have the rest of the 24 hours.

Maybe we need Pricewaterhouse Coopers to insure the integrity of the awards process.

Word for word translators don't quite capture the idioms of a different language.dales wrote:PLEASE DISREGARD MY GUESS, I USED A SEARCH ENGINE AND TRANSLATOR TO COME UP WITH MY TONGUE-IN-CHEEK ANSWER.
sorry
The proper capture is this: Was vom Tage übrig blieb
Two years high school, two years college German - from which I merely recognized your translator results aren't how a German would say The Remains of the Day; I Googled to get the proper idiomatic translation.
