The version of the Adventures of Baron Munchausen you list is wrong. Also, I believe the listing should be The Bicycle Thief rather than Bicycle Thieves but I could be wrong…

Thanks

Thank you for your kind interest. I will change the name of the director of the Adventures of Baron Munchausen.
The other film you mentioned:
Ladri di biciclette (1948)
aka “The Bicycle Thief” – USA
aka “Bicycle Thieves” – UK

Yes, it is the wrong Munchausen (not Gilliam). Bicycle Thieves is the literal translation, fine. Body and Soul should be version by Rossen.

When I came upon this list today, the Gilliam 1980s Adventures of Baron Munchausen was still listed, so I went ahead and changed it to the 1940s film “Munchhausen.”
