I could need a bit of help regarding an old US movie which I cannot remember the title of.

It is a about a couple, probably set in the 1950s and black and white, which goes on their honeymoon in the US with a caravan. Everything goes wrong and I remember that at one point, the caravan comes off from the car and roles down a hill, I think with the bride still inside.

Hint: I don't think it's this movie:

Da mein Kleinweich-Abo bald abläuft und ich keine Lust auf KI-gestützte Ausspähung habe, wechsle ich nach vielen Jahren weg von MS (mehrere Mailkonten, unterschiedliche Anbieter). Zudem möchte ich weiterhin OHNE Cloud meine Termine und Kontakte mit Android-Smartphone synchen können (hierzu FOSS im Einsatz, jedoch nur für OL kompatibel).

Über die Jahre kam immer wieder #Thunderbird in die Diskussion, was meint Ihr?!?

You are driving a German 🇩🇪 or Korean 🇰🇷 car to an Italian 🇮🇹 coffeeshop to drink Brazilian 🇧🇷 or Etheopian 🇪🇹 Coffee, made by a Mexican 🇲🇽 or Ukrainian 🇺🇦 barrista. You then go go home buying Chinese 🇨🇳 or Indian 🇮🇳 takeaway, eating it sitting on a Swedish 🇸🇪 couch in front of a Chinese 🇨🇳 TV to watch US 🇺🇸 shows, and you are still complaining that your neighbor is an immigrant?

Everyone is a foreigner almost everywhere.

Without immigrants or migrant workers, most economies would contract

The key to winning the #Elections2024 is to convince the undecided and the uninformed, even if they are presently #Republicans.

How do you do this on the ground?

I've just watched an introductory video by @MeidasTouch of #AdamMockler, who has a unique way of convincing people.

I really recommend watching this instructive video. Adam's method can also be used to sell many ideas and things
