Guess That Movie!

[Blitz187]

Hmmm looks like we've been hanging all weekend... or maybe like me we've all been watching World Cup Football...

Any clues?

 

[Neal]

FK's been busy birthdaying and everyone else has been watching the worldcup (painfully) and Le Mans...and hitting refresh on the French PS Blog

I recognise the guy on the left but don't know his name and can't think of any movie titles.

Time for some clues?

 

[TheCracker]

Citizen Kane?

 

[FoolKiller]

OK, I thought it would be easy. Neither of these two are the main character, however when this movie was made the man on the right was arguably a bigger star than the main actor.

 

[Diego440]

Witness for the Prosecution?

 

[FoolKiller]

You're off by nearly 20 years.

 

[Diego440]

It's not The Sting, is it?

 

[FoolKiller]

It's not The Sting, is it?

Wrong direction.

The man on the right had his first starring role in a movie where you never saw his face. He has been nominated many times for an Oscar but never won.

 

[Diego440]

Mr Smith Goes to Washington?

 

[FoolKiller]

Mr Smith Goes to Washington?

Ding ding ding.

If The Invisible Man reference weren't enough I was going to have to mention Casablanca.

 

[Diego440]

TBH, the guy on the right really rang a bell. At first I thought he was an older version of Paul Newman, but the Invisible Man reference had me finding Claude Rains. Next one shouldn't be too hard:

That would be sooo easy if you'd seen the film....unfortunately I haven't but I'll have a guess of Nineteen Eighty-Four

You got the dystopian part right, and the decade. But not the movie

 

[Neal]

Brazil?

I'm embarrassed to admit I haven't seen this yet

 

[Diego440]

Then no

 

[Neal]

Is it They Live then?

 

[Diego440]

Is it They Live then?

Were my clues too obvious? What gave it away?

 

[Neal]

They weren't too obvious really but there's only so many dystopian movies from the 80's and No. 33 on this list helped a fair bit

This is probably way too easy and if Blitz sees it he'll get it in a second.

 

[Diego440]

Romeo Must Die!

 

[Neal]

Romeo Must Die!

I was right, it was way to easy!

Your turn.

 

[Diego440]

and I had so many movie stills from that page that now I don't know where to get them from!

 

[TB]

Layer Cake?

 

[Diego440]

indeed

 

[TB]

Sweet.

 

[Speedy Samurai]

cliffhanger?

 

[TB]

Holy hell. Two minutes.

 

[Speedy Samurai]

yay!

 

[Diego440]

oh, that's too easy! Dr. Strangelove

1 minute!

 

[Speedy Samurai]

It took me 5 seconds to find that pic. I didn't try very hard, that's for sure.

Great job, Diego! You really aced that test.
