Background: One of the running gags at the office is that Amazon thinks I'm a lesbian particle physicist, based on having ordered twenty or so physics references and one indie lesbo flick: Go Fish.
So I've been moaning about the fact that I haven't been able to remember the name of a movie I saw about ten years ago - some German independent thing a friend talked me into (she was gorgeous and devastatingly intelligent, and you expected e to say "no, thank you"? No, thank you.)
IMDB searches didn't help, Google searches didn't help, I'm getting nowhere. I describe the film briefly to him, and he tries this search.
"Well, that didn't work," quoth he, "it just gave me a list of lesbian movies."
Beat.
Beat.
"Um, Eric? Let me look at that...."
Of course Antonia was second on the list. Dutch, rather than German, of course, and had I thought to look at the Academy Awards I might have worked it out.
