See, the first thing that I thought of was "Auf Wiedersehen, pet" but a) that's a TV series, and b) they left for Germany (which as we all know isn't exactly an island  :lol:).

I am afraid we need more hints, dearest!

Yes, Sweety, I would have been really surprised if you had guessed it. :rolleyes: :read:

But I will give you all a chance and not just describe the content but tell you that I wrote my master's thesis about the novel and its film adaptation. Hurray, everything's clear now, isn't ìt?

No, the real hint is: An island is to be evacuated because the government plans a dam for the electrification of the area.

Love,

Ok, Ok, Ok!

Well, my second main subject was Slavic Studies and the novel was written in Russian originally. My PC hasn't mastered the use of kyrillic script yet - not my fault  :rolleyes: -  so I give you the German name: "Abschied von Matjora" by Valentin Rasputin. The film was directed by Elem Klimov and his wife Larissa Sepitko who died during the shooting of the film.

So, what about one of you giving the next hints...

Love,

Nobody? I thought it was an easy one. Possibly it's already too Advent. :wink:

Maybe this can help: The woman is mute and has a daughter.

Is it "The Piano" by any chance? I think I remember seeing it but I am not sure.

Another one I didn't watch, but it should be "Bean: The Movie", right? :rolleyes:

Yeah, my turn again. It's not so easy but here is one that I really enjoyed when I was young... :chief: :

Goodlooking but unsuccessful American actor is the sidekick in success- but hateful British comedian's show.

Anybody?
