this description ring bells with anyone? a film has been described to me as follows and the person concerned has no idea what its called and wants to find out - it rings a bell but at a loss at the moment

ta

" Two brothers and a man called Mr Tiritus. Someone finds money under a slate that he has to cut, then there's gold and he puts it in a bag. Someone's in a courtroom, and someone gets sent away and banned from the city. He goes to church, and 3 kids follow him by a lake. There's a girl and her mum, who is drunk, falls over and dies and the girl runs into a party past a Nativity scene with a cow and a sheep. It's an old film, but not in black and white"

"The man ( Tiritus?) goes to the forest because he sees something, then some other man comes in and steals the money from the man who cut the slate, then Tiritus comes back and screams, "No!"

can't see a 'tiritus' named character on imdb and it surprises me that an alien isn't mentioned in the description....

That doesn't necessarily mean it isn't Enemy Mine.

Ok, enough silliness.

Does it star Louis Gossett Jr. and Dennis Quaid?

It sounds like a shit film. Are you sure this person didn't dream it? And if so, is it Enemy Mine?

it does sound dreadful...and the idea of dreaming it has already come up on the fb post

much as i wish it was the bastard offspring of enemy mine,ghostbusters 2, zombie strippers & iron eagle...it is not...

and i was hoping for at least 2 sensible posts before we hit enemy mine territory but then i remembered where we were....

Sorry I'm a bit late. I was working.

After reading the OP's brief synopsis, is it Enemy Mine?

Sorry my post is at such an odd hour, different time zone and all that. Also sorry everyone else has cocked about when it's such a reasonable and well written post, not very kind or funny in my opinion.

Anyway It's Enemy Mine.

You're welcome.

Sounds like a very simular scene from Home Alone

Is it The Night of the Hunter?

No, just kidding. It's obviously the Fellini classic, "Il mio nemico"
