Can't remember this discussion... probably some *long* time ago?

Just for the sake of information, there was (a few years ago!) a nice
movie by Eric Rohmer called 'Le rayon vert' (the green flash). Nearly
nothing to do with astronomy, except that the characters attend many
sunsets in the hope of seeing the green flash, and in the end, they see
one. That's the time to make a wish!

Cheers,
Thierry
