Help me identify this foreign film

The Bus · 01-13-09, 11:00 AM

I saw this movie on Bravo (remember when they didn't just show reality shows?) sometime in the 90's. My guess is this movie is from the mid-80s to the mid-90's. It is definitely in the German language.

The only scene I remember is that at one point the characters are sitting in their house but the set is actually being driven outside by a truck. So they're all sitting in their living room which is on a flatbed being driven around. It's a drama.

Sorry there's so little information.

Also, I'm pretty sure it's not any of these films:

Masters of the Universe
27 Dresses
Drop Dead Fred

Thanks!

there is a scene just like that in You the Living but on a train. what time frame is it set it, modern? WW2?

What I'm sure of is that this film is in German and took place in "modern" times (mid-80s to mid-90's depending on when the film was made). I think it may have had something to do with WW2 (or thereabouts) and finding records of that time.

Luther: That's it! Had to look for the trailer on YouTube, but that's definitely it. I remember the projected backgrounds.

I should've just PM'ed you, you're like a walking IMDB.
