The Guns of Navarone.

I'm afraid so...

This shouldn't be too hard:

^^ How Green Was My Valley.

BTW, David Dodge (author of the novel that Hitchcock's To Catch a Thief was based on) wrote a humorous book about his travels in Mexico called How Green Was My Father, but that has nothing to do with this thread.

 

[J.T.B.]

^ Over to you.

Pretty Maids All in a Row?

That's the only film where I remember Angie Dickinson playing a teacher.

Well, that didn't take long. You certainly know your movies.

That one was an oddity -- written and produced by Gene Roddenberry, directed by Roger Vadim, with Rock Hudson as a guidance counselor/football coach who sleeps with teenage girls and then murders them. Interesting hobby.

Mad Max?

More recent than Mad Max, not as recent as The Road. It's a drama/political thriller, one of my favorite films of recent years.

The Constant Gardener?

 

[auntiehill]

BINGO! Well done.


I just love that movie. Made me cry like a baby.


Your turn.
