Hi. I remember I have seen a black/ white movie in school, its about 10 years ago, but I can' remember its name. I remember that the movie is very funny and good and I want to buy it if I can find it.
Ok, its about a soldier returning home, and he see a old man, who looks hungry. Then he gives his sandwich to him, and the old man eats it very fast and then he gives the his last sandwich to him to. Then the man tells him a secret word and disappears. Then he use that word, while catching turkeys in the wood, and t last he shall survive in the haunted house, where three ghosts haunt. He plays card with them and in the end catches them in a sack, with the magic word. At the end of the movie, he is a very old man, and he asks a young man to go to a tree where the sack is and open it. Inside is his soul, and when he open the sack, he dies. It sounds funny, but I really want it.
