Very very funny...thanks!!!

In re: the signs joke above...this is the true story...

There was no movie posters in Russia when I lived there...so every movie theater would have their own artist on stuff to paint - actually paint in oils - the poster for the movie...so every poster was different and up to the artist...

There are many I've seen that were hysterical but would be lost in translation...but one I remember very well...it advertised a very tight murder mystery where you don't know who the murderer is until the last 5 minutes...

One of the artists in my area painted the poster and written brief description of the movie...at the end of the description was following:

The role of murderer is played by Oleg Yankowski...

Bwahahahahahahahaaha

P.S. I have to add here that Oleg Yankowski was one of the biggest Russian movie stars at the time...known to EVERYBODY...
