The bollards which held the gate are still there.</text></comment>

It stars one of my favorite comedic actors, Benoît Poelvoorde who is belgian. I&amp;#x27;d encourage anyone with a taste for foreign films to check out &amp;quot;C&amp;#x27;est arrivé près de chez vous&amp;quot; (Man Bites Dog in english) another great movie of his (features lots of violence and serious themes, not a family movie).</text></comment>
