IMDb:  A kindhearted but bumbling idiot who likes to steal bananas, is passed off for a snitch hiding from the mob.

Means "Johnny the Toothpick" in Italian.  With Roberto Benigni.

"O" is Oyster Farmer (2004)
« Reply #3315 on: April 01, 2008, 12:38:44 pm »
IMDb:  Jack Flange leaves the big city for a respite in Australia's Hawkesbury River region, where generations of oyster fishermen (and maybe one woman) have made a living, built histories, and piled up grievances. Jack finds a small-town mentality, with pluses and minuses. There's also a recent burglary and lots of missing cash. Jack gets a job oystering; his boss is separated from a woman of invention, Jack's attracted to a chambermaid turned letter carrier, and there are plenty of mine fields for a city boy to step through. Jack also has a sister, who's ill, to worry about. It's a river journey of self discovery. Is he passing through, or has he found home?

What's with the sudden name-changes?  Did I miss a meeting or something?

It's April 1st, sort of a Bettermost tradition to change your name for the day.

There is also talk of everyone changing their name to a Heath-related name on Friday April 4th in honor of Heath's birthday.
