Anyone any ideas on how you might go about trying to trace a particular film?
It was probably from the 90s, I can't remember the title, I know the faces of several of the actors involved but not their names and I can remember the plot!
I had it taped but can't find it now.
Are there any sites which might be of any use?

Yeah, tell us the plot, uk us or foreign and we might be able to throw some titles at you that you can then check if that rings any bells. I have one as well, but I'll wait until we solve Rubcale's before giving the details of mine  |

if you can remember a line from the film, try typing that into google?
otherwise, i'm afraid i can't recommend any particular sites other than IMDB, or just typing here as much as you can remember...

The film you're looking for is The Opposite of Sex. I'm sure of it.

If you can remember anything about the film, ask google the question.
Just as an example, I put in to google, film where man puts bananas in tailpipe, back came on result number 2, Beverly Hills Cop (1984), which is the exact film.
I hope this helps.

I know this is a complete waste of time because it is a low budget movie with B actors but I was hoping maybe there was a film site somewhere that specialised in queries.
The male lead looked like the tennis player Goran Ivanisevic and was from a Southern state in the US but gave up acting quite early.
Set in the US, he was a top selling writer who was refusing to come through with his latest book contract and wasn't responding to them. The female lead whose mother had just passed away discovered she was adopted. She was a book editor at the firm who had the writer under contract and he was living in the town where she found out a midwife had witnessed her birth so she offered to go there to see what the problem with the writer was.
There was an unexplained death around 25 years ago which appeared to have some connection with the heroine's birth and the current mayor seemed to be involved in it.
I can picture a lot of the actor's faces but not one name.
I reckon the odds of anyone knowing this are about 100,000:1.

My film was an Irish one, bf knocks gf over in an argument and she bumps her head on the table and dies, and he buries her in the woods, think there are also gangsters in it as well? He gets together with another girl and it turns out the gf wasn't dead after she hit her head, but I think the other girl let her bleed out? The lead guy was cute, if you like that sort of thing, over to you S1m!

Sort of black humour in my movie, I think it was one of those movies where the lead guy is doing a voiceover on what is happening etc.
