    LKD left off with:

    A survivor of an avalanche is giving an impassioned speech about survival and teamwork -- and suddenly is killed.


    There were a number of guesses, so, if any of them were right, LKD should post that here.

    None of the guesses were correct. Another hint, and this should do it, the film is set in an underwater research facility.

    Woop woop! :banana:

    The scene is fairly long, but is a really great one! :)

    A killer for hire goes into an office to silently kill a guy and make pretend it's a suicide. While planting the gun, he mistakenly shoots in the wall and hits a (big) woman. He goes to the next office and while he's struggling to kill the injured woman, he is seen by the janitor. He executes both, but as the janitor falls, he hits the switch of his vacuum cleaner. To silence the machine, the killer shoots at the plug in the wall. This makes a short-circuit in the electrical system and all of the electric alarms of the building go off...

    Nope, not Spyhard. Although the scene is very funny, the movie itself is not a comedy.

    Nope. The movie was nominated (but lost) in the best director category at the Oscars. The director had his "revenge" at the Cannes film festival.

    Nope, not the Matador. This movie was done a few years before the Matador.

    Thanks Triactus, that movie rocks and I loved that scene when I saw it in the theatre. It had the perfect balance of fun, anxiety and eerieness... David Lynch style. ;)

    Ok, next scene:

    A man wearing a hat, a mask, a cape, boots and a sheathed sword enters a restaurant. He has a finely trimmed goatee and (further clue) an earring on the right ear (isn't that the gay ear? but don't let that confuse you). He pushes back his hat, walks up to a table, introduces himself, sits down and starts to passionately court a woman who before succumbing to his charm asks him if there is a costume party at the hotel...

    Not Zorro, but there is some Spanish accent involved.
