LOVE this movie. Before my NY/NJ accent was dialed back from years of living out west, I would get requests (mostly from my husband) to imitate her little speech about her “biological clock ticking ticking ticking” 😁

Starman - An alien (Jeff Bridges) comes in the form of Karen Allen's dead husband. Bridges learns to drive from observing Allen. He nearly gets them both killed and explains, "I watched you. Red - stop. Green - go. Yellow - go very fast."

A Fish Called Wanda! K-k-k-k-k-k-en deserves all the love, and people do name their children (or themselves) after cars, but each character in this film is arguably (and in one case, literally) a fish out of water.
