Fender benders: We've all had them. One time I spotted a choice parking spot and threw my car into reverse, only to slam directly into a Volvo that had been patiently waiting behind me to grab the same space. We each got out of our respective vehicles, surveyed the damage, and decided to just go our separate ways and forget the whole thing ever happened. More important, we didn't fall in love. But when a man and woman accidentally bump their cars in the film Moscow, Belgium, it somehow leads to romance, and to make matters more complicated, the woman's already got a husband. Oh, rom coms, how we love you. The Belgian flick, which won three awards at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival, will be showing this weekend at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, 3200 Darnell St., as part of the Magnolia at the Modern series. The film's dialogue is in Dutch, so if you don't speak it, prepare for subtitles. Showtimes are at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. Friday, 5 p.m. Saturday, and 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. Sunday. Tickets are $8.50, or $6.50 for Modern members. For more information, call 817-738-9215, or go to themodern.org.
