Nightwish song?

[edit]

Which song begins here at 4:14? Thnx. 85.222.86.190 (talk) 18:18, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's the rest of "Dead Boy's Poem", the same song that had been playing up until 4:14. What you hear now is the beginning of the rousing finale of "Dead Boy's Poem" (track 10 on Wishmaster). ---Sluzzelin talk 18:31, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Does anybody know the title of this film?

[edit]

The plot of this film is basically as follows. A woman returnes to her late father's mansion to scatter his ashes. Once there she discovers that the deceased man, a former detective, has an unsolved case involving throroughbread horses. He has made extensive recordings of himself during his final months, meaning she is able to interact with him via a computer and crack the case. Once solved, however, she discovers it was some kind of test.

I watched this film one Saturday evening about 20 years ago, but have forgotten the name. I've Googled it to death without much success so thought I'd try my luck here. I think the film was American, though the actor playing the deceased man was British. Can anyone help? There is, perhaps, an article in it (if we don't already have one).

This might be Grand Larceny - I remember seeing the film and recalled it had Omar Sharif in it - this might be it, see http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093110/ Exxolon (talk) 00:28, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for getting back to me. I think it is that one. The synopsis seems familiar anyway. I'm glad someone else remembers it, and that we have an article. I might add a few more details to it now I know what it is. Cheers TheRetroGuy (talk) 11:46, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
