Porsche content - rather unexpectedly

Rented out a film recently, based upon the pedigree of the directors (Volker Schlondorff and Margarethe von Trotte). The Lost Honor of Katharina Blum. 1975. An attack on the abuse of power and yellow journalism. Rather prescient really. And then, my darling wife Nikki, says to me ... (she started to watch it ahead of me) "I know why you got this film .... its a porsche movie" ... and I protested my innocence ... as the movie had a good rep (and is very good as well --- worth checking out) but .... upon seeing the beginning .... I could not argue ;-)
What a nice surprise to see a 73 targa in irish green, with an RS front bumper and cibie hoodlights ... as driven by Jurgen Prochnow.
