There's an antique movie cliche. There's a poor woman living in a cottage. One day the villain, a man with a top hat and a fine moustache comes to execute a mortgage. However, he tells her that he will waive the debt if she marries him. She refuses. He kidnaps her and ties her to a train track, from which she's rescued by a guy who looks canadian mounted guard. This formula has been used everywhere, most recently in an episode of Sabrina. I think it's a Mary Pickford movie but I don't know. Maybe someone out there could answer.

Hello,\nNot in "The Perils of Pauline", with Pearl White. It was another heroine, Helen Holmes in one of her serials (title escapes me at this moment).\nYou can find Mabel Normand chained to the tracks in "Barney Oldfield's Race for a Life", from 1913, for example. They are spoofing the bit, so it must predate that movie.\nHope this helps\n\nHello again...\nPlease take a look at the IMDb's page for "Barney..."\nhttp://us.imdb.com/title/tt0002663/\nThere's a little plot summary and, if you scroll down to the user commentaries, you´ll find a mention to the tracks part...\nAnyway, there are theatrical plays from the 1860's with somebody put in the tracks ("Under the Gaslight"), so around the 1910's that was already parody field and probably was never played in a serious mood in any movie.\nRegards

i'm not that familiar with the story, except that it is about witch hunting in a town. this quote, whoever says it, is someone begging Thomas not to get involved in witch craft. is it his wife? that would make sense, that she's begging her husband not to get in it because the town (who was full of people paranoid about witch craft) would charge them with the crime.

Priceless stuff indeed! You just referenced one of my favorite movies ever! Good taste....:)\n\nNow for my choice! I always wanted to be "Vicky Vale" in Batman.....but nahhh. I'd sooooo love to be Mary in "There's Something About Mary." But I just don't think I could handle the big fight scene at the end. I would sooooooo love to be Princess Buttercup, but that would be me stealing your movie. *sigh* I think someone like Norma Rae or Erin Brokovich would be tres cool! But then again, I happen to have respect for life and I suppose my inner "rebel" wouldn't be as strong as they are in the movie. Could I be "Mary Poppins?" She's strong and nurturing at the same time. Yeahhhh.........gotta love her!! There there is Danielle in "Ever After." She's got strength, loyalty, kindness, and honor.....And the ending is amazingly for all that are deserving. She gets the prince, maintains her dignity, has shown strenth and loyalty and is loved by her friends (and of course the Prince.) I suppose we all hope life will end.....happily "Ever After." So I choose...Danielle!

I've seen the trailer, and I'm fairly sure its a hoax.. The story just doesn't seem believable, and the trailer definitely features bits from other films.. I spotted "Catch Me if You Can" in there, and other bits seemed familiar. Sorry!

I read this short story for my English class last year.  It is categorized as "escape literature" because the main character is trying to escape from the sadistic hunter.  I forgot the names I'm sorry, but that's the general idea.

I believe you are thinking of "No Place to Hide" (1981), a made for TV movie starring Kathleen Beller (as Amy Manning), Keir Dullea, Gary Graham, and Mariette Hartley.\n\nWhile stalked by a psycho who whispers "Soon Amy Soon," Amy is surrounded disbelief from her stepmom (who thinks Amy is huffing paint in art class) and her therapist who says the stalker is a phantom Amy created because of the guilt she carries over her father’s untimely death. Amy journeys to the mountains to come to terms with her conscience and soon discovers what “Soon Amy Soon”, really means.\n\nA TV movie that, as far as I can tell, is not available anywhere for purchase.\n\nGood luck, though.

this is entirely based on a hardcover version.\nthe author is justine korman\nthe book is 118 pages\nthe main characters are prolly mr/farmer hoggett, mrs. hoggett, and babe\nthe setting would either be the hoggetts farm, or the big city (i think its called metropolis or at least thats what it was in the movie)\n\num ok 4 sentences summarizing...\nFarmer hoggett is unable to work, and thus the bank comes to visit the hoggetts.  Mrs. hoggett must attempt to raise enough money to save the farm from being forclosed.  On their way to the state fair, babe and mrs. hoggett become stranded in the city.  They are both rather overwhelmed, because not only will they not recieve babe's appearance fee from the fair, but they must also survive in the city.  They run into many problems, such as cranky neighbors.  While in the city, he decides to help some of his new friends and also recieves help from Ferdinand.  In the end, i think the farm is saved and babe and mrs. hoggett get home.\nim not sure thats how the book ends, but im pretty sure.  you might want to ask someone else also.

Its from the movie, Mannequin (1987).  It's about a young artist who doesn't seem to last in any job he does until he makes a mannequin..He makes it so perfect that he falls in love with it.  The mannequin ends up in the window of a big department store. When he saves the life of an old lady who happens to be the owner of that store, he is rewarded by getting a job at the store as stock boy. Later the mannequin comes to life as Emmy, who was an ancient Egyptian living. The two redesign the window display to make it most eye catching in town. The store competitors were not happy and will do anything to stop them..\nBasically, it's a romantic comedy.. great movie!
