Charades : the movie

You simply have to figure out the title of the 10 movies on this list based on the word clues. This should be child's play to all you smart people out there!
Ok, here goes! ....

1. In the direction of the Hysterical

2. Big haired celestial beings' boss/ American president's May be civil

3. Bone + pusher's that's lost 2 speech sounds Tabulate

4. The Maker + found

6. The Irish playright + body part Procurement

7. Trrees galore Goofy

8. Excepting Hush-hush Crystal's Sally

9. Face + another body part

10. The Gag of the Innocent sweeties

These are toughies

6. Wild at Heart???

These are though! Which only adds to the challenge :D

10. Silence of the lambs?

5. Raiders of the Lost Ark?

Accurate response for Numbers 5 & 10 by Jamesian and vheissu, respectively. Great job!!

Let me update the clues and ease them out a bit at the same time. But up to a certain point only. If I go any further it will be a giveaway .... and then you will accuse me of insulting your intelligence!

#2: Unseen boss of lovely lady detectives known as Angels / 28th American president's / Maybe civil, Second World, Boer, 100 Years, of the Roses, Iran-Iraq

#3: Layman's term for tibia+ synonym for drug pusher's minus 2 vowels / Tabulate

#4: The Maker of the universe+ found

#6: The Last Name of the playwright George Bernard+ body part that's between the knee and the ankle / Procurement

#7: Thousands of trrees make up a / Goofy

#8: Excepting / Hush-hush / Crystal's co-star in 'When Harry Met Sally'

#9: Face+ another body part (one with the SA node)

Come on, folks! It's time to flex those gray cells, wake up those slumbering synapses! Good luck!

I was so blinded by "shinbone"!

Excellent job, Scheherazade and kilted exile!!

here are a couple additional prompts:

for #4: the person who founds, let's say, a movement or a science is also said to be the person who ______ that movement/science.

for #9: when you face the unknown (for instance), it means that you _____ it.

4. Godfather?

9. Braveheart?

Right! Excellent, Scheherazade!

Still no takers for #1??
It's a 2007 movie by Sean Penn. :)

Is #1 "Crossing Over" ?

No, it's not. sorry.
The movie is based on a book of the same title.

Is it 'Into the Wild'?

You got it! Bravo, Cailin!

Excellent job, Scheherazade! .... except for 4 & 10.
Clue: It's more acute than migraine!!
And for #10 it's the story of friendship and adventure shared by 11-yr-old boys; the soundtrack is of the same title.

Barbara got it right for #8!! :thumbs_up

10. Stand by me?

#10 -- Stand By me??

Edit: Vheissu posted faster than me, I was guessed the same title.

4. Misery?

:thumbs_up vheissu and Madhuri for #10!

Sorry, it's not Misery for #4. It's not about a pig :p .... the 'acute pain' in the clue is more evocative of a bee!

Ah ha! The Sting? #4

Very good, Cailin! You got that right!
