I remember seeing a TV movie or show in the late 1970s with a siblings, a pre-teen boy and girl, who wore pendants in the shape of a pyramid. I was 4 to 7 years old when this came out, so I don't remember too much else. Hoping someone can ID this for me. thanks!

If I am not mistaken, it was made in the 90's, the plot takes place in the 19 or early 20 century in London (possibly Paris). A country boy goes to the big city (for a sport competition?). A fellow takes him to a club, he meets then sleeps with a girl. While she thinks he is asleep, steals his mo...

The opening scene in 2015's Spectre has a long continuous sequence which, as an amateur filmmaker, is difficult to figure out how it might have been done. The movie begins as an apparent crane shot over a Mexico City Day-of-the-dead parade. The camera slowly comes down to shoulder level while t...

In the Black Books episode "Fever", the characters are complaining that the temperature might get all the way up to 88 degrees. They're in the UK, so I'd assume they mean 88 C, but that's ridiculously hot -- nearly hot enough to boil water. 88 F is actually a rather nice temperature for the sum...

Was there ever a film about the life of Jesus set in modern times? I mean, not about Jesus coming again, but rather, about sort of alternative history - what would the biblical narrative about the life of Jesus look like if the setting was the modern world, not first-century Palestine. The idea i...

I watched a movie on cable (most likely on IFC or Sundance, but possibly another paid movie channel) sometime between 2004 and 2006. I watched it, along with "House of Spirits" a few times back to back. Sadly, I can't remember the title or the names of any of the actors. But I do remember the plo...

I saw the movie "Vacation" (2015) on DirecTv last night. I consider the new movie to be a sequel to the original film (National Lampoon's Vacation, 1983), since the plot revolves around the character Rusty, who is the son of the character named Clark played by Chevy Chase in the original (Chase ...

I remember seeing this movie and possibly reading a book where a brother and a sister for some reason come into this big house on the edge on the cliff I also remember boy going down the stairs down the cliff to the beach at some point in this movie I also remember children finding some secret r...

Latin American comedy, early-90s. A brunette in a red dress is doing a college assignment using a secretly-hidden video camera. She tells us this (subtitled because the language is, I think, Spanish) in the first part of the film. The whole film is shot from the camera's POV. She seems to be ex...
