Goodbye, Lenin! One of my all-time favorite movies.

Had I not been otherwise engaged, I'd have been happy to buy that cast-iron statue of Feliks Dzherzhinsky from the Russians and move it from Dzherzhinsky Square, right outside KGB headquarters, to MI-6 headquarters and leave it with them. (Not, of course, telling the Russians in advance where I was taking it.) One of my old fantasies.
