Here’s how it works. I’ve taken a short film synopsis from imdb.com and fed it into Bable Fish, an online translating service. I then translated the synopsis from English into Greek, and then from Greek back into English. The resulting gobbledygook is posted below. Your task is to try and identify what movie the passage refers to.
A very easy one this week, but to be fair I couldn’t really have chosen anything else

Unfortunately, girl the old friends, that is from the rich department of city, is incompetent to abandon her, and it programs it returns in [character].

Some how I know what it is which is kind of wonderful but I feel like I’m not allowed to play being married to Mr HUGHES and might get accused of insider trading

@notSupermum, no, but again on the right lines.
Oh! I see! It’s something by John Hughes. OK, I give up. Though the original version of Pretty In Pink was great before the Psychedelic Furs recut it for the soundtrack of some film or other.

Choooo. I don’t know then. Did you know Cameron’s house from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off was on sale recently? 2 millions dollars or something that that. Ferrari not included.

@Laura Driver, yes! Blimey, I’m surprised that took so long.
This is easy. All you have to do it retranslate it back to Greek, then Chinese and finally back to English again. It spit out the answer right away. The movie you’re referring to is Dirty Harry.
