In the 1960s, two Florida beach bums were inspired to commit a famous burglary after watching a film about a heist. What was the film, why were they able to pull off the theft so easily, and how did Eva Gabor's evidence help to find what was stolen?

I'm guessing..." To Catch A Theif," The plot resembles a jewelry heist committed by 'Murph The Surf,' aka Jack Murphy and Allan Kuhn. Some of the stolen pieces were confiscated by the FBI and traced back to the seller's when they were labled for sale in one of Eva Gabor's antique jewelry stores? Nov 29 04, 6:04 AM

In which 1998 film did the actors get so carried away that they were biting each other and what historical event was the inspiration for this film? The film was about cannibalism and the event was reproduced in a famous painting if that helps. When this classic film was re-released in the early 1990s, an important scene originally removed from it was restored, but without the audio, which was missing. One of the actors involved was able to re-record his dialogue, but the other was dead, so a third well-known actor was asked to mimic his voice. What is this film, who were the two actors in this scene, and who dubbed the famous dead man? Please can some kind soul help me to remember the name of a film - It was a British film, a comedy, set in Wales. Brenda Fricker and Jane Horrocks were in it, and it was about two sisters who accidentally killed their mother, and hid her body.I cannot remember for the life of me the title of this film - Can anybody help? What were the names of the two scripts that were combined to make the film "Scary Movie?"
