the rules:
1. Pick 10-20 films you loved/thoroughly enjoyed.
2. Find screen captures (stills) for each film. If you can't find a still, pick a new movie.
3. Post the pictures with the rules; let your readers guess from what movie each still is.
4. NO GOOGLING! This includes using IMDb if you recognise an actor.
~> i think my films may be difficult though i didn't purposely try to pick "hard" stills ~ so i only chose twelve. i'll be impressed if anyone out there can guess more than five.
hints: three of these stills are in black and white even though the film itself was in color. and at least one image shows a scene which was cut from the final reel (but it still oughta be obvious).



oh the things you can do when you don't want to work!

4. Glory
7. True Grit (doh...my dad would kill me. He would know that one right away)

I'm guessing of course - what have I done with my brain since google?
1. The Bicycle Thieves - purely because there's a guy on a bicycle, although he looks like a priest, so it's almost certainly wrong.
2. No idea. He's wearing tartan, but it's not Braveheart!
3. Looks dickensian, maybe Great Expectations.
4.
5. Hmmm. Jeremy Irons dressed as a Jesuit maybe. I know this. Grrrr. 1492?
6. Not familiar.
7. I'll make a guess at The Searchers.
8. Looks like a napoleonic era deck battle. Master and Commander?
9. Is it Amistad?
10. Black and white, they look russian. Alexander Nevsky?
11. Clearly a religious movie, but which one? John the Baptist?
12. This looks really interesting! I've no idea what it is though.

1. nope ~ though you're right about what the picture is of.
2. hahahahahahah ~
3. wrong era
4. why yes, yes he did
5. jeremy irons plays a Jesuit in two different movies. 1492 is not one of them.
6. i think this still may be too hard, but the movie is easy
7. keep guessin'
8. Master & Commander is right ~ yay!
9. nope, wrong era
10. oooooh ~ so close!
11. clearly a religious movie, but not j the b
12. it is really interesting ~ and probably the hardest of the lot.
you got one, though ~ !

1. A priest on a bicycle. Hmmm. For some reason I think it's Italian. Though I dont know why. Is it Il Postino? I wish I had a better memory of the movies I've seen :)
2 - 4: Give up.
5. I have seen this. Dont know why I guessed 1492 as the clothes are all wrong. I was remembering he images in my head and I had a big actor in there, but it wasnt Depardieu, it was De Niro. Is it The Mission? I LOVED that movie.
6. Dont know. Is it Bill And Ted's Bogus Journey? Hmmm? Is it?
7. It shouldn't take long to guess each and every Wayne movie.n It is True Grit? Hmm? Is it?
8. Yay, got this one!
9. Looks a bit like Tom Cruise. Dont recognise it still.
10. It's still black and white, they're still Russians. Is it Ivan the Teerible?
11 - 12. Give Up II

And oldcontemptible took the words right out of my brain...that weird Johnny Depp western...I've only seen the preview but it freaked me out. *^^*;; What was it...it's like on the tip of my tongue...the dark old west, old western train, doom something, death something...*dies hard*
