It ended up that she was not in the movie, the song was only partially used on the credits ... I never managed to release that piece of crap in theatres or TV .. barelly a few units in video ,,,


On the other hand, in the same trip to Milan, I bought an action movie with a good looking Belgium contact karate expert " No Retreat, No surrender" ... Film was exciting, signed the deal with the guy in a bar called " The lucky Bar " on a napkin ...

The guy's name is Jean Claude Van Damme ... Movie did well in theatres, great on pay-tv and TV, fantastic in video ....

So Nena is not a good memory ... I think I have stills photos somewhere ...
