[Michael T]

The Thin Man?

Nope! Sorry papayahed.

It's a well-known 'hard-boiled' detective movie... With all the above clues it shouldn't be too difficult now!

Ok... I give in! Here is another scene from the film.

Should be easy now.

[papayahed]

The Big Sleep

[Michael T]

ah ha!!!!!

The Big Sleep


Well done papayahed... Your turn now :)

[papayahed]

haha, you only had to hit me over the head with the answer.

Stop with the older timer movies!

[papayahed]

What, Nobody? It's a classic.

[The Walker]

i agree with limajean...i want to play but i'm so clueless :D

[papayahed]

[Scheherazade]

Space Cadets?

:D

[papayahed]

Space Cadets?

:D


erm no.

It came out in 1981 right after two other pretty famous comedies that also featured the guy in the second picture.

[adwara1]

Stripes

[papayahed]

Stripes

Yes! Your turn.

[adwara1]

Yes! Your turn.

How do you paste picture in here need Help

Guess

http://img44.imageshack.us/img44/5532/98167016.jpg

[Scheherazade]

Are we likely to have some clues?

:D

[adwara1]

Do you recognize the guy standing, its his first big movie

[Mathor]

its definitely Batman Begins. I won!

[adwara1]

Yes your turn now

[Mathor]

http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v64/mathor/movie.jpg

This is a relatively easy one.

[adwara1]

http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v64/mathor/movie.jpg

This is a relatively easy one.
Don't see the picture?

[Mathor]

photobucket is just down for right now, they should be back up soon.

[Mathor]

Since no one can guess it, whoever chooses to do so should just post their own.

[Janine]

Wait, is it Hitchcock's "Strangers on a Train"...? Just a wild guess really...

[Mathor]

close!

[Janine]

Mathor, How about....."Sabotage" by Hitchcock...?

[Mathor]

well since you keep guessing rather correctly, I'll tell you that it's certainly directed by Hitchcock, but it is neither of those.

[adwara1]

The Lady Vanishes

[JuniperWoolf]

Do you recognize the guy standing, its his first big movie

What about American Psycho?

[Janine]

Quote by Mathor...

This is a relatively easy one.

haha, Mathor...That's easy for you to say. I will have to review the Hitchcock list and figure it out. He had a lot of train scenes in his film. Obviously, this is an early one since it's black and white.

I don't recognise that actor in the forground. He must be a major player, right? Can you give us a hint at least....maybe his first name....?

I bet adwara has it right. I think I was actually thinking of that film, when I posted "Strangers on a Train". If adwara's correct, I love that film!

[Mathor]

the actor in the picture's name is "Robert"

[Janine]

the actor in the picture's name is "Robert"

Mathor, It's pesky Janine again! haha....Alright, thanks for that much. Now, is it either Robert Montgomery or Robert Newton? I don't think it looks anything like Robert Cummings, but think he is in one of Hitch's early films, which involved a train or a train wreck. Can't recall the name now. Anyway, is this Robert any of these? If so, you tell me which one? ....I don't ask for much, do I? hahaha

Wild guess - "The Derelicts"....but thought that was an episode on TV and not a film, unless it's a very early film.

Second wild guess: "Saboteur"

Third wild guess is: "Mr. and Mrs. Smith"

This is driving me crazy since I love Hitchcock films!

[mono]

The 39 Steps, one of Hitchcock's more neglected films. ;)


One of my favorites:
http://z.about.com/d/movies/1/0/N/L/royaltenpub7.jpg

[Nightshade]

Oh I know this one.... The Royal Tenenbaums isn't it?

( I had to checck he name on IMDB but I think thats it isnt it? the wilson brothers, Ben stiller and Gene Hackman.)

[papayahed]

The Royal Tenenbaums



Easy one:

[papayahed]

Dang it Nightie - you beat me!

(Wanna post one, I'll remove mine?)

[Nightshade]

Grand Torino.
http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m235/Night-D/film.jpg

[Scheherazade]

I think we need some clues.

[Janine]

Could it be Mutiny on the Bounty?

[Lynne50]

Could it be Mutiny on the Bounty?

This seems like a more contemporary movie than Mutiny. But you've seen more movies than I have, so maybe you've got it.

[Janine]

This seems like a more contemporary movie than Mutiny. But you've seen more movies than I have, so maybe you've got it.

hahaha....I don't know about that Lynne; I was purely guessing. It seemed to me the film looked a little washed out, so I thought of that movie. I haven't seen it for years. Of course, there has to be tons of other movies with tall ships in them or pirates. Does that guy look like a pirate to you? I wasn't sure.

[Nightshade]

Oh sorry folks my bad, no it isnt but do the words Gilbert and Sullivan help?(also one of my all time favourites! )

[Janine]

Oh sorry folks my bad, no it isnt but do the words Gilbert and Sullivan help?(also one of my all time favourites! )

Now I think it be easy - Is it The Pirates of Penzance....;)?

[Nightshade]

Indeed it is. The 1983 film version with the Kevin Kline, Angela Lansberry, Rex Smith, and Linda Ronstadt, to be exact. ( sadly not realsed on dvd and the VHS was only ever NTSC, but I live in hope!) :D

[Janine]

Geez, I won. LadyWentworth would have gotten this one right, too. She would have know it, first time around. It didn't look like a new movie to me; film was too faded. Nighty, does this mean I pick a film and post a photo? Oh my!

[Nightshade]

It does Janine! :nod:

[Janine]

It does Janine! :nod:

eek...I am going out soon but I think I have time to upload one to Photobucket first and post it.

http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p70/sealace/BranaghKenneth/Dead_Again_KenEmPoster.jpg

One clue; this movie was shot fully in color and then part of it was turned into b/w. This particular scene was in color actually.

Need anymore clues?

[DanielBenoit]

Dead Again


http://sosayeththewatcher.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/tn2_elephant_3.jpg

[Janine]

Good for you, DanielB! I thought maybe no one would know the film. It's one of my favorites.

Your photo seems to ring some bell in my memory; but I don't know what it is yet. Can you give us any clues? I thinking seeing the actors' backs makes it a hard one.

[DanielBenoit]

They're not well known actors at all. Pay attention to what they are carrying.

I suppose the photo is a bit too ambiguous. Here's another one, this might make it easier.

http://www.splicetoday.com/vault/posts/0000/1445/elephant-1_large.jpg

[papayahed]

Is it Elephant?

[Lynne50]

Is it the Columbine movie?

[DanielBenoit]

I knew it! Once you reveal a face, the movie is automatically revealed.:p

papayahed got it, it's Elephant, loosley based on Columbine, such masterful and subtle directing my Gus van Sant!

[papayahed]

Allllllll riiiigghhhhttttttt

(It looked like it might be a movie about columbine but I had to do a search to be sure)



http://img48.imageshack.us/img48/2503/movie111.jpg (http://img48.imageshack.us/i/movie111.jpg/)

[Janine]

Funny, I was thinking about the Columbine incident also but couldn't recall the name of it....senility setting in I guess.

Is that the next photo, Papayahed to name? That one looks hard, too.

[NickAdams]

Repo Man.:lol:

[NickAdams]

http://media.avclub.com/images/articles/article/2476/songs_0_jpg_595x325_crop_upscale_q85.jpg

[NickAdams]

It's a Swedish film.
Here's another screen shot:

http://www.filmforum.org/archivedfilms/songs/songs1.jpg

[Janine]

Can't see the photo, Nick...just a box with an X in it......
this one is really difficult....*frown*....

[NickAdams]

Here's another and one of the most famous of the film:

http://www.moma.org/images/dynamic_content/exhibition_page/30506.jpg

[Scheherazade]

Any takers?

[manolia]

Nick it's "songs from the second floor", isn't it?
It's been a while but i think that's the one.

Dead Again


http://sosayeththewatcher.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/tn2_elephant_3.jpg

:eek2:papayahed got to it first. I was mildly disturbed by this film. I most certainly won't forget it.

[rimbaud]

having problem posting a pic :S

[DanielBenoit]

:eek2:papayahed got to it first. I was mildly disturbed by this film. I most certainly won't forget it.

Yeah I know. It is masterful how Gus van Sant approaches the murders; his camera is so detached and so cruelly indifferent. The way he directs it is van Sant's explanation to the Columbine killings; that there is none, and that violence just happens, and for stupid reasons most of the time.


http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HGlsxdSXG2c/Sb5CSHIxP9I/AAAAAAAAAT4/PJb2Reutznc/s1600-h/DeadPoetsSociety1989CD2.avi_003839798

I suppose the link is corrupted. Post another from the same movie.

[Janine]

Daniel, didn't Papayahed win? I am totally confused in here now. Who won the last one?

[DanielBenoit]

No, Magnolia I think got NickAdams picture, though he didn't get it confirmed.

So it should be him who should post the next picture.

By the way Magnolia, nice sig. I love Twin Peaks (well at least the first season and the begining of the second, until it went downhill :( ), I love David Lynch!!!

[manolia]

Ok..i think you'll find this easy

http://i166.photobucket.com/albums/u106/manolia_niki/pic1.jpg

[Scheherazade]

Is that from "Shaun of the Dead"?

[manolia]

Yep (loved that film :D the irony and everything)
Your turn.

Oh, ok, Daniel, thanks; now I see it was Manolia. I love "Twin Peaks," too! I like David Lynch's films - "Mullholand Drive" is one that Manolia and I have discussed privately - still trying to figure that one out...that is what makes it fun!

[DanielBenoit]

Yes, it is "Zoolander". Would you like to post the next one?

[rimbaud]

http://www.wackypackages.org/press/DetroitRockCityDVDPicture.JPG

ok, this was a good one :) i really liked this movie, i hope you did too

[DanielBenoit]

First I thought Dazed and Confused, then, I remembered watching this a couple years ago; Detriot Rock City.

[rimbaud]

yeah, and now it's your turn :)

[DanielBenoit]

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ja51IYJlbws/SoGFedDArFI/AAAAAAAACOY/pdLi1QSxqa8/s400/dafoeinnylons.jpg

Kinda easy

[Scheherazade]

Is that Dafoe?

[DanielBenoit]

Maybe. . . . .:lol:

Yes

[Janine]

ouuu...his teeth are bizare....Is it some type of horror film?

[DanielBenoit]

Not exactly, but a very weird film by a very weird ingenious director.

[Mathor]

yeah that one was pretty easy. That's David Lynch's Wild At Heart.

[DanielBenoit]

I knew that either you or manolia would get it. Correct. Your turn.

[Mathor]

this one is even easier, but i suck at coming up with new ones:
http://www.orizzontikubrickiani.it/images/barryrissa.jpg

hint: another genius director!

[DanielBenoit]

Barry Lyndon! Kubrick is a genius!

I hope I'm right :redface:

[Mathor]

like i said, it was easy! I think that's one of his more underrated pictures. Kubrick is one of my favs! your turn.

[DanielBenoit]

Speaking of underrated pictures. . . .

http://thewholegardenwillbow.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/zerkalo1.jpg

[Mathor]

Tarkovsky's "The Mirror"

since you picked a relatively hard one this time, i'll pick one that's hard (well only if you don't know your silent films).

http://twi-ny.com/dzigaandhis.jpg

[DanielBenoit]

Heart of the World? Guy Maddin has been one of my fresh new discoveries, if this is or isn't it, it's still one of the best short films I've ever seen.

[Mathor]

nope. hint: soviet union film. but yea wonderful film. i think you'd like this one just as much!

[DanielBenoit]

So weird, manolia just reccomended that to me. Dziga and His Brothers. I forgot the director, but I think he made The Man with the Movie Camera.

[Mathor]

Weird I never saw you wrote this. Man With The Movie Camera is correct. Your turn!

[DanielBenoit]

Bit easy for those who've seen it.

http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7QzTivhVTs4/SgcOe1nC_DI/AAAAAAAABac/KrvtdNUXKFA/s400/chop+shop.jpg

[Scheherazade]

Haven't seent the movie so a wild guess: "City of God"?

[DanielBenoit]

No, but you should really check both movies out (City of God and ^ one), they are both two of the greatest films to come out in the last ten years.

[Scheherazade]

City of Men?

:p

[DanielBenoit]

nope :p

[Mathor]

I know what it is, but i'm not going to say cause I don't feel like picking the next one :p

[Scheherazade]

City of Angels?

:D

[DanielBenoit]

No.
Here's some advice: leave out the "city"

Here's a BIG hint; it has two words, one is "shop"

[Mathor]

And the other word rhymes with shop.

[Michael T]

And the other word rhymes with shop.

:banana: Then it must be 'Chop Shop' (2007)... Hooray, my turn! :banana:



What about a nice easy one...

It's American Graffiti :D

May be a bit easy ;)

[Janine]

hahah...I don't know what it is really, but the photo is rather amusing...I take it's a comedy....wild guess, "Superman"?...Or "Raising Arizona"?

[DanielBenoit]

Far from it. . . .

[Janine]

Far from it. . . .

hahah...I said they were wild guesses! I have no idea what film that is. Is it one of your foreign films or European films? I must admit I am deficient in that realm of film. It's sad, I know. I did however see Blue Velvet back in the day on a large screen. It was great; but I hardly remember a thing about it now. I liked your review very much. Your review on Through a Glass Darkly was also very well written. That film sounds extremely interesting to me. I like films with one on one dialogue and interaction verbally between people. I am not into action films or car chases, etc. I like human relationships best portrayed in films.

OK, I have no idea

There's probably two or three guys on here who might know it, so I'm waiting for them.

Though I know as a fact that one of them had definitley seen it, but he isn't on that much.

[rimbaud]

damn! I couldn't even cheat my way into getting the answer :rage:

[DanielBenoit]

:lol: It really seems to be bothering you.

Once you figure out what it is, you should definitley see it. It is in my opinion, the best film of the past ten years.

I haven't seen it, but your Best of the Decade thread was how I figured it out. ;)

Yeah, I was implicitly hinting that to rimbaud, since she was so eager to get it. :lol:

Weekend at Bernie's?

:lol: A litle off in years.

Hmmm, the guy in the third picture looks a bit like a mildly aged Buster Keaton.

It's a comedy of sorts ... tragicomedy.

. . . . . . . .Limelight?!?!

The only one I can think of besides Sunset Boulivard in which I've seen Buster old.

[NickAdams]

Tell me you've seen Buster Keaton in Samuel Beckett's "Film"?!

It's not Buster though. Do we define movie as feature length, because it's a short?

Hint: German

[DanielBenoit]

No, and I'm ashamed of it :( being a big fan of both Samuel Beckett and Buster Keaton. I think I've seen it posted on Youtube somewhere.

"Run Lola Run"?

:lol: I take it you haven't seen 'Run Lola, Run' Scher. ;)

"Run Lola Run"?

That movie was cool.

[Scheherazade]

It is one of my favorite movies. Maybe I should watch it again sometime soon...

Hey, maybe we can watch it at the Viewing Room?

[NickAdams]

Let me see what other hint I can give.

[nouvellevague]

I can't guess it so I'll take the liberty of posting a new one. (Merry Christmas everyone!) :)

I certainly was. I took stab after stab at it and came up with nothing. Looks hella interesting though and I'm downloading it right now. Internet Archive is the best thing to ever happen to legal video sharing :lol:

Scher, I can see that's Mia Farrow and Robert Redford...is that "The Great Gatsby" by any chance?

[Scheherazade]

Yes, it is Janine :)

Oh my gosh, I never win in here. Now I have to go and find a photo...hummm, where do I start? Give me a little time. Be back soon...

Is it too difficult; do people need hints? I am worrying now I killed this thread.

It's a British director.

[MarkBastable]

That's Heaven Can Wait.


Mine's a film based on a story by a very British writer. Not sure why it's an attachment rather than a displayed graphic - but think of it as a challenge.

[Scheherazade]

The Man Who Would Be King? :p

You should upload the image to Imageshack or some other hosting site after changing the name of the file, Mark. Otherwise, anyone quoting your post will see the name of the movie in the link.

Wanna post another one? :)

The film I picked is NOT "Heaven Can Wait". There are two release names to it; but I never heard it called that one.

Here is the movie "Heaven Can Wait" ...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heaven_Can_Wait_(1978_film)

I apologise. You're right. It was called A Matter of Life and Death. The later movie was loosely based on it, and that one was called Heaven Can Wait. I think. Or something. Anyway...A Matter of Life and Death.

Carry on.

Apology accepted...I never win here and was nearly in tears. Anyway, that is the correct title and in the US it was released originally as "Stairway to Heaven"...Powell and Pressburger film - excellent. It is similar to the later "Heaven Can Wait"..I thought that when I was viewing it.

Another British classic:

I think that's The Guns of Navarone.

I think it is, too. I saw that movie last year. I thought it was good.

Wait a minute - what was the title of the movie a couple of posts back? Did I miss something? I am confused again.

[Scheherazade]

What about Mark's?

[Janine]

Oh ok...then "If" was the title? Wow, the new one is a riot and also kind of creepy. Are the electric rollers on the guy's head? hahah I say this because I did actually see a old documentary once and a woman would get an electric type perm. I asked my mother about this, since she is 87 and she actually recalled it. Of course, that is no woman and also the guy in the white coat is checking his teeth. I have no idea what film that is. I doubt if I have seen it.

[sixsmith]

http://i447.photobucket.com/albums/qq193/markbastable/10.jpg

Is it A Clockwork Orange?

[MarkBastable]

Is it A Clockwork Orange?

Nope.

I'll give you a clue.

It's the same director as "If..." and the actor in both the photographs recently played that director in a biopic based on a book written by the guy who wrote the screenplays to both movies pictured.


Edit: Actually, I'm not sure the biopic was ever released. But the actor has certainly given filmed lectures about his extensive work with the director.

O Lucky Man.

I couldn't get it from your link but just going by his filmography I will take a wild guess:

Is it......The Evening Sun......?

Any answer to my last post, sixsmith? I had nearly forgotten about this thread; had to go looking for it.

I am still wondering what has happened to everyone from this fun thread. I once again had to go looking for it. Did sixsmith skip out on us? I am still curious as to what movie that last on is.

That ok sixsmith,... eekkk...now I will have to come up with something good, since I won again. I have to tell you that was a stab in the dark for me. I haven't seen the film I don't believe. Now that it took you so long to answer, I guess everyone can be patient for me to get back here with a photo for the next movie. Be back as soon as I find a good one.

ha...I knew I wouldn't trick you, Daniel. Actually, I found the still that way, in b/w. Thought it looked kind of neat. I own a new copy of that movie and need to watch it again soon. It's still in the wrapper and I really like that director's slowpaced and thoughtful films.

If no one gets this one within ten days then I'll just post another.

Hmmmm, this film was made a while back but couldn't find a proper release since it couldn't secure the music rights, until recently it was re-released and hailed by a great many critics as a masterpiece. (I kept the dates ambiguious so as to shame those who use google :p )

Not much of a hint I suppose.
