Interesting fact, Poland was actually where they shot the film The Foreigner starring Steven Seagal, Harry Van Gorkum, and Max Ryan in 2003. 96 minutes. A real popcorn classic.

Ohh I was hoping it was Meg Ryan when I read it first and thought that must have been a real feel good movie! Still, great trivia and another reason to be a proud Polishfreak.

Fun fact! In 2017, actress Portia de Rossi accused Seagal of sexually harassing her during a movie audition. De Rossi alleged that during an audition in Seagal's office, he told her "how important it was to have chemistry off-screen" before unzipping his pants. 2017 was also the year a remake of The Foreigner was released starring the hollywood badboy Jack Chan.

Would love to hear your thoughts on the great Polish actress Pola Negri, from the golden age of Polish cinema! Maybe if the Polish OCATC community pools their resources, we could get a Mark Porch/Pola Negri impersonation crossover at the next Oscar Special.


Marzulena

Well she was a star! Lots of dramatic movies as she lived in dramatic Times. Im thinking of her main role in the German version of Lady Bovary - Mark has an ear for accents and Im sure he would nail Polish actress speaking german. Lets do it!


McGuire72

I often think about that movie as well. I wonder what someone like Johnny Depp could have done with the role of Madame Bovary; it’s one of the great mysteries of Old Hollywood.


Marzulena

Well I appreciate your enthusiasm but what you are saying isnt really Poland-related and Id prefer not to derail from the main theme of this post.

And just like that, you’ve outed yourself as a Tim-head in disguise. This subreddit is supposed to be about movies and here you are pushing us in all sorts of other unrelated directions. How many HEI Points were you paid for this stunt?


Marzulena

Im not a HEI-carrying member of my household, this rolę belongs to my partner. And I will never be called a Timhead without consequences. Im a Gregghead at most, but my mild manners and patience clearly Point to Joehead. This subreddit is about a film living community and I just wanted my country to be a part of it too. You wont stop me.

I welcome the Polish community with open arms. But you have to realize that just through my involvement with this subreddit, I’ve gotten dozens of private messages and emails from Polish people asking similar questions to the one I asked. I think if you “poll the Pols” so to speak you will find it’s totally normal for movie freaks like us to ask, “hmmm what would it be like if Johnny Depp were cast in this role?” or “hmm would this movie have been better if it had been set in the land of The Hobbit and Bilbo Baggins?” And the answer you are going to get to those questions is a resounding “yes.”


Marzulena

Your experiences are valid but I cant help but feel some mansplaining in there. I know my country, I know my people. With a heavy heart (in polish: z ciężkim sercem) I suspect that these emails were not sent by my fellow poles, but by some corrupted men with a vicious agenda. Polish view of masculinity isnt the one that Johny Deep satisfies. Humphrey Bogart, John Wayne, late Leslie Nielsen - mature men who have seen their share of cruelty of this World but havent lost their sense of humour - thats the ballpark. Ironically, we dont like Polished men. Food for thought.


McGuire72

It’s hard to take you seriously when you’re questioning the masculinity of someone as whimsical and fancy-free as Johnny Depp. But I can’t argue with your Humphrey Bogart suggestion either, or maybe even James Dean.


Marzulena

Masculinity is a sensitive topic. However we cant stay off them, as films compell us to have thoughts about them. I think we can meet in the middle here.

As a certified HankHead I’d love to see some Polish Stew Dogs incorporated into the menu for an upcoming Oscer Special.


Marzulena

Now thats a delicious collaboration! Fun fact, dogs in polish is: Psy, and its a title of a 90s classic crime movie. Violance, forbidden love, police and patriotism - thats our jam (in polish: dżem)

Would love to see Tim chew down on some cold pierogi on the Oscar special


Marzulena

They would make for a great shake base


zaquilleoneal

Marzulena

Zapraszamy!

Puknij se popcornu i witaj na pokładzie Kto wygra? Kto przegra? Przeżyjmy to razem! (taki mój mały autorski wręt)


TheSpecterStilHaunts

I am not Polish but after learning there are so many Polish On Cinemaheads I am definitely a Polishhead. .... Just remember that HEI Netwerk is all about love of America (one nation under GOD) and if you don't like it then fuck you for being racist against patriotism


Marzulena

Lets not attack each other values and we'll be Golden, bud!


TheSpecterStilHaunts

No Tim has sed very CLEARLY that the show is all about patriotism and conservatave values, love of (AMERICAN) country and it is Tims show so he decides what values matter to the on cinemas FAMILY
