'''''[[Long Title|The Englishman Who Went up a Hill, but Came Down a Mountain]]''''' is a 1995 historical comedy/drama starring [[Hugh Grant]] and [[Colm Meany]].
In 1917, two English cartographers come to a small Welsh village to measure the local mountain, Ffynnon Garw, for the official British maps. The villagers are very proud of Ffynnon Garw ("the first mountain in Wales") and are rather upset to learn that that it's just under the 1000 feet required to be considered a mountain, and thus will not appear on the map.

* [[Arc Words]]: "Do you want me to have to say it all failed because of you?"
* [[Based on a Great Big Lie]]: The film heavily implies that it's based on a true story. In fact, it is based on a local legend, but one that has no basis in fact.
