I can’t remember title to this crime/thriller

I remember one of the first scenes, this undercover cop is at some kind of Mafia boss house. I think they are cuban or something close to that. There is this teen girl that shows the cop a drawing. The girl now takes the cop into another room, and tries to have sex with him. But he tries to avoid it as he suspects she is very young. And asks her how old are you anyways, and she replies I’m as old as you want me to be.

She manages to rip his shirt off and sees he is wired, and yells to what I think is her uncle. And the cop now chases the uncle and kills him. The cop now wants to protect the girl as she is now a witness to a crime. And I remember he brings her to a family that he trusts. But she gets killed at night while she sleeps, and he feels guilt over that.

I can’t remember more than that, but I saw it on Netflix some years ago, so think it’s a newer movie. And really hope someone knows the title

A film about teenagers and a suicidal brother

A group of friends throw a party where a shy young man is (possibly) teased harshly, leading to the young man’s unsuccessful suicide attempt.

The older brother gathered his friends to avenge the younger brother. The younger brother (presumably due to the bullying of these friends) attempted suicide but survived, becoming paralyzed and disabled. Finally, the younger brother killed himself with a grenade by pulling the pin with his finger.

Presumably produced in the USA, genre – horror

Old Dress locked in a cabinet

When i was a child in the 1970s i remember watching an old black and white film which im sure was British .It was about a young woman who becomes obsessed with an old Victorian (Edwardian)dress that is locked up in a glass display cabinet possibly in a museum or big house. The dress had belonged to her mother or grandmother so she feels the dress should belong to her. The young woman descends into madness and in the build up to the end of the film smashes the glass on the cabinet to take the dress. She is quickly took away and the film ends with one of her older relatives showing why she could never wear the dress and they show that the material of the old dress has become so old that its fraying even crumbling with age

an early 2000’s thriller movie…

Hey guys, I’m Looking for a thriller/drama (likely 2000s-2010s, maybe a TV or direct-to-TV movie) :

A couple constantly argue they’re raising five children in a toxic relationship. The husband is doing everything he can to support the family, but through unfortunate circumstances he gets fired from his job in a heated argument with his boss after showing up late one day.

He later discovers his wife has been secretly taking the family’s savings.

One day while she’s asleep, he finds a stash of money hidden in her shirt (in her chest area). This explains why their money had been “disappearing” from excess expenditures.

Their lives had already been miserable.

In the opening scene, he’s sitting at the table with a gun nearby, waiting for her to wake up so he can confront her about it.

He then has a vivid fantasy sequence where he kills his wife and the rest of the family, but he can’t bring himself to kill their youngest daughter. He escapes with her instead.

Realizing what he’s done, he knows he’s in trouble with the law. Still, he takes the girl with him in a pickup truck, trying to start over. They lay low in another town. He takes a job at a café/diner and comes home to her every day. He even meets a new woman and starts to fall in love.

He also becomes friends with a local cop because of their shared military background.

The daughter, being a kid, sneaks out one day to play at a playground while he’s at work. The ccopher father befriended finds her alone on the swingset after curfew, and this raises questions. Over the next few weeks, the cop slowly investigates the man’s background.

Eventually, the truth unravels. The man is arrested, and in the chaos the daughter is struck by a vehicle while trying to help him as the cops close in.

Final twist: it cuts back to the beginning at the kitchen table. The entire sequence was just him imagining/daydreaming what might happen if he killed his family.

None of it actually occurred.

I found a very similar description on a subreddit before — someone recalled a film where a man kills his wife/ children, flees with his daughter, hides out, meets a woman, and it all turns out to be in his head. It sounds almost identical to what I remember, but I haven’t seen a confirmed title yet.

This movie is in english and in color and I remember seeing this movie sometime last year but i couldnt recall the name. I believe it was on a TV channel with vintage movies or something like that.

Not Fractured (2019), not Dream House (2011), not The Killing of Two Lovers (2020)

Does anyone know what this movie is?

Pre-2010

Hello – I don’t have many memories of this film but it’s been bugging me for years.

There is some type of war/apocalypse that breaks out. There is a man and wife who live in a house with lots of land. A male intruder attacks them and holds them hostage as he’s trying to flee the war/apocalypse. The intruder and wife eventually start having an affair although the wife is mostly forced into it to stay alive. She is allowed to live in the house but the husband is made to live outside. She then sleeps with her husband once in secret by the side of the house, but also sleeps with the intruder. She falls pregnant but doesn’t know who the father is. One of the last scenes is the three of them standing at the front of the house ready to fight as they hear people coming to take their land.

25 year mystery

Hey everyone, trying to find a movie or show that I used to watch on TV. It was probably around 96-99. The only thing that really sticks is a sex scene where the teen boy cannot open the condom, and all you hear is him rattling the wrappers over and over while the girl is waiting in the bed.

The girl is nerdy, with round glasses. The guy was an unlikely match. He was awkward and weird. The girl’s mom was a single mom and I think they got in a fight and the girl ran away with the boy to this place where they try to have sex.

I think it’s set in a big city like New York. I want to say the girl also had a sister.

I remember watching it several times and I forgot everything except that awkward sex scene 😂

I’ve asked every movie buff since I was in my 20s, and Chat GPT failed me. Thanks so much to everyone who tries!

Australian kids run away

Okay, so I used to have all these “family adventure collection” DVDs that came in sets of 8 and 10. For example, one collection features titles like “The Last Unicorn”, “Nico”, and “Witches”, as well as random one-offs that you don’t normally see advertised. Anyway, it was about 2018/19 that I watched it, maybe? The film is in color and English, pretty modern, and set in Australia. It starts in a school, and this classic bad boy is getting into a fight outside the front door. This classic good girl comes and tells them to break it up. You find out the girls parents are divorced (?) thinking about seperating (?) trying to work it out ish (?) there’s a scene where the dad plays a really pretty song for the girl on his acoustic guitar and he sings like her “lullaby” (she’s like 13 ish but it’s THEIR THING) and she falls asleep, anyway the boy runs away from home because he’s troubled so the girl follows him and it’s like classing ‘australian outback’ type stuff. Well, they get like horribly lost and they come across this crazy man who tries to kill the girl, and so the boy beats him up and they bond and decide to go home, but at this point, they’re lost, right? Well, anyway, during all that, the parents are bonding together to try and find the kids, the dad checks this like a washed-ashore boat he and the girl used to hang out at a lot, but they’re not there. Anyway, while the parents are trying to find the kids, they fall back in love, so that’s cool, and then the boy like realizes his parents really do love him and that he IS wanted/loved/cared about.

Unknown sci-fi movie

For years, I have been trying to search for the name of this particular movie on many sites and so far, none of the movie titles suggested have matched my description. No luck and help so far. I also get either wrong or no responses at all too.

I will try to be as specific as possible in here.

Here goes:

The movie looks old, possibly from the 80’s, 90’s, or 2000’s, I’m not sure. It’s an American sci-fi movie in English I saw on TV in color twice in my adolescence.

In the movie, a scientist is in love with a beautiful women with blond hair who appears to be somewhat imaginary and ghost-like wearing a white dress but real nonetheless. He has a rival scientist whom he forces to cancel some sort of rocket launch. At one point, the rival scientist was seen with his driver holding his enemy and his friend at gunpoint unaware that it was all being recorded on camera.

After they escape with the help of the scientist’s ghostly girlfriend, the hero tries to stop his rival from launching something but finds himself facing the driver while the rival leaves to continue to his point of destination. Then when the rival scientist is at the conference and after the good scientist has subdued the driver, some reporters show the footage involving the gunpoint scene to everyone and they mention at one point that he actually “discovered New Jersey” rather some new planet.

At the end, after the rival scientist has been arrested, the good scientist closes his eyes and uses a special somewhat magic, space stone to turn his beautiful, somewhat ghost-like, imaginary woman girlfriend whom he is in love with into a real woman at the end of the movie.

PS: Please, take your time to think and see which movie I am referring to before answering. Check trailer(s) too.

Take care and good luck.

Hint: It’s not Flubber or any of those Absent-minded Professor movies either. And no, it isn’t Creator with Peter O’Toole either.

Movie or episode in a series

What i remember is a male living his life but something happens and it turns out at the end that he is in a simulation and his actually body is dead but his upper body is still connected to some machines somewhere and there are people doing experiments on his upper body and consciousness. A woman who works there feels bad for him after something happens to him in the simulation and runs to where his upper body is and disconnects it so he can finally have a peaceful death. That is everything I remember.

Fantastic TV antology (about aliens, travelers etc)

Please help me to remember the TV film. I saw it on tv in the middle of 2000s. I guess it was an antology at least of 2 stories.

Both of stories take place at the end of 19 century or at the beginning of 20

1. First story I can’t remember in details but there was a man in the boat after a shipwreck or something like this and there were strange things happening to him (timeshifts or kinda like that). Eventually he made it through.

2. More details about this one. Women looked through a telescopic tube to some planet (Mars or Moon whatever) and she saw there pyramids or some strange constructions on the dunes. Suddenly on the planet appeared the alien. The telescope tube made zoom in to the alien and women ended up teleported to some chamber on this planet. She was alone in this chamber/solitaire, she scared and she cried. The camera made zoom out and we see that there are other chambers with scared people.

AI told me that this is “The Martian Chronicles” 1989, but it’s not definitely

Thank you

“lying naked at the North Pole”

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to remember a movie I saw sometime in the 90s (or early 2000s). I think it was a German film, possibly a comedy or something offbeat/romantic.

There’s one particular scene I remember vividly:

  • A man and a woman are sitting in a neon-lit nightclub or bar, with blue and pink lighting.
  • They’re eating pizza or something casual.
  • She asks him: “What’s your biggest and most secret dream?”
  • He answers, completely seriously: “Lying naked at the North Pole.”
  • It becomes clear that although he’s very handsome (tall, blond, well-built), he’s also pretty simple-minded or naïve.

I can’t remember much else – possibly some romantic or ironic vibe.
Does this ring a bell for anyone?

Thanks in advance!

Krystal with K

At the end scene there’s a fight going in a hi-tech reactor installation or something. I remember there being a balcony. The male villain needs a password for something. After beating the male protagonist, he tells him the password is “Crystal”, villain tries to use it and fails access, maybe he dies because of it? Then make protagonist jokes with female protagonist, whose name is Krystal “it was Krystal with K”. Live‑action film I watched on TV in English circa 1990s or early 2000s.
