Abstract
We investigate the motion of a liquid drop as it flows along the interface of a liquid film. Steady, two-dimensional solutions are found in the lubrication limit for a horizontal and inclined plane. The effects of the physical parameters on the interface shapes are studied. When the plane is inclined, solutions are found only for a special set of parameter values.
