Name that Film

[auntiehill]

Once Upon a Time in America.

 

[Lonemagpie]

Yep

 

[auntiehill]

^That scene is rather.....er...um...memorable?

Here's a classic. This should be pretty easy.

 

[scotpens]

^^ The 2006 Marie Antoinette with Kirsten Dunst.

 

[auntiehill]

Um, no. I said "classic."

 

[Aragorn]

Plus the picture is clearly not of a 21st century film.

How so? Looks to me like an 18th-century costume drama that could have been made any time between the late 1930s and the present.

So, WHAT MOVIE IS IT? I don't have a clue.

 

[Aragorn]

You really think that picture could be of a recent movie? I don't know what to say. Does this look like a movie made in the 30s?

 

[sojourner]

Singing in the Rain. That's the scene where they are trying to make a "talky" for the first time and haven't figured out how to rig microphones.

Please, post another pick, I have none.

Apples and oranges, as they say.

Singing in the Rain. That's the scene where they are trying to make a "talky" for the first time and haven't figured out how to rig microphones.

Of course, I see it now -- attaching a disguised mike to Lina Lamont's (Jean Hagen) costume. Don't know why I didn't notice it before.

 

[sojourner]

Point of no return

 

[Kirkman1987]

Ouch, it hurts missing Singing in the Rain.

 

[Aragorn]

Point of no return

Correct. You should really post a picture when you get it right.

If you need something on the fly, go to the DVD Beaver reviews, pick a movie and grab a screen shot (you'll need to change the name of the file when you reupload it). That simple.

 

[sojourner]

^OK, give me some time.

Edit: OK, here's one. It's a small pic, but the best I could find for the movie in question without making the movie too obvious:

 

[auntiehill]

Brigadoon?

 

[sojourner]

^correct

 

[auntiehill]

OK. How about this?

 

[Aragorn]

Throwing out a completely random guess...

The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada?

 

[auntiehill]

YES! *high-five*

That is SUCH an awesome movie.


Your turn.
