I find that kind of thing fascinating (cf. Anne of Green Gables in my last entry). It's always hard to know whether, say, Jerry Lewis being big in France or "Dinner for One" being a New Year ritual in Germany is the result of some deep national affinity of taste, or the impassioned advocacy of an individual, or just some random happenstance.
