The phrase "Schinkenklopfer" I learned from a Bavarian friend - used when one laughs while hitting their thighs. Today I saw a comment by a German film, that sad: "I must ruin the film a bit. Horses on beach sand give no Hoof sounds"... Just LOL.

Nothing complicated, but still cute.. just like how I image a relaxing movie Friday night.
I liked the jokes, even some part of the conversation between the main pair.

By the end, that scene with the taxi driver... LOL!!! XD

I still remember that Mel Gibson film, 'What Women Want' where he gets an electric shock, and begins to hear the thoughts of women... Well, 'Sind alle Männer Schweine?' is the reversed German remake ( Read more... )
