500.0. "Foreign Films at Oscars 94" by 23989::VETEIKIS () Tue Mar 22 1994 10:35

    I enjoy watching good foreign films. At the Academy Awards this year,
    their were five nominees. I caught three of the five.
    
    The ones I remember were:
    
    o Farewell My Concubine
    o Bella Poque (sp?)
    o The Wedding
    
    And two others...Can you help me remember these other two? I would like
    to pick them up when they are available on video.

    While we're taling about the Oscars, is the song that Neil Young
    performed, from the film Philadelphia? I've seen the film but don't
    remember hearing this song in it. If it isn't from the film, where is
    it taken from?

    Neil Young's song is played over the closing credits of "Philadelphia".
