Melody

I can't deny that the music attributed to Boccherini was "played" by the pretended musicians in the Ladykillers. Still, Haydn (Roman Hoffstetter) String Quartet No.5 in F Major Op.3, 2nd Movement seems to have been used as well. Do these just sound similar? Or was it used as an alternate tune as background?

Transliteration

Why is it always Arabic titles? (original name: لصوص ولكن ظرفاء). A transliteration into pronounceable sounds in the Roman alphabet wouldn't go amiss. For the umpteenth time, this is English Wikipedia! Nuttyskin (talk) 20:07, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
