In the meantime, virtual bonus points to the first person to correctly identify the origin of the quote above - and extra bonus points to anyone who can guess why I felt obliged to hold back on the last round.

1: 5 dogs

As for this round ........

A Fish Called Wanda!

As for this round... no idea... so I'll say:

101 Dalmatians - do I have to specify which five?

1: 5 dogs
2: plumber

1: 5 dogs
2: plumber
3: La Boheme

Rent?

There are three kinds of pipe. There's aluminum, which is garbage. There's bronze, which is pretty good, unless something goes wrong. And something always goes wrong. Then, there's copper, which is the only pipe I use. It costs money. It costs money because it saves money.

MOONSTRUCK it is, go to it Minnie

After attending the opera, Ronnie:

Loretta, I love you. Not like they told you love is, and I didn't know this either, but love don't make things nice - it ruins everything. It breaks your heart. It makes things a mess. We aren't here to make things perfect. The snowflakes are perfect. The stars are perfect. Not us. Not us! We are here to ruin ourselves and to break our hearts and love the wrong people and *die*. The storybooks are *bullsh/t*. Now I want you to come upstairs with me and *get* in my bed!

Rose to Loretta: Do you love him Loretta?
Loretta : Aw Mom, I love him awful!
Rose: That's too bad

You must understand, I'm married to an Italian lol. The movie's perfect, right down to the sugar cubes in the champagne.

No discredit to her, but this movie would've tanked with the planned Sally Field in Loretta's role!

Here's an oldie(foreign):
Clue 1: fascism

I'm back after a long hiatus. I would've thought you'd be on clue game 176 by now!

I loved Moonstruck and was the first thing I thought of after the clue 'La Boheme.' Of course, that was today, a week after the clue was posted!

Rose

How about: Truffaut's The Last Metro

"Mephisto"

Clue 1: fascism
Clue 2: influenced man
Clue 3: Paris

Someone else can go...

clue #1 -- terrorist attack

The clues were :

clue 1 -- terrorist attack
clue 2 -- meddling mother
clue 3 -- clerk
clue 4 -- Byzantine bureaucracy

Anyanka gets it. :-( You're up!

(Next time I'll choose some obscure film from Outer Mongolia! Wait, do they even really HAVE a film industry there?)

Right. New round; extra clue: it's not a Gilliam.

Clue # 1 - bunker

Ok, here's my guess -- The War Zone!

My guess: A Very Long Engagement

Clue # 1 - bunker
Clue # 2 - culture clash

;-)

Clue # 1 - bunker
Clue # 2 - culture clash
Clue # 3 - post-war England

Also, for those of you who are fluent in Finnish and German there is a completely accidental bonus cryptic clue in my previous set of negatives. Clear as mud?

Great minds think alike! (And you have great taste in men) ;-)

As for the latest clue .......I'm bemused, befuddled, and bewildered!

Let me translate. The Finnish word for no (which I obtained from an online dictionary; I speak no Finnish whatsoever) is ei. In German, Ei means - egg. Clue 4, therefore:

Clue # 1 - bunker
Clue # 2 - culture clash
Clue # 3 - post-war England
Clue # 4 - eggs

P.S. I am being deliberately and obnoxiously fiendish.

"The Big Nose" a film about Hitler starring Jimmy
Durante?

(just kidding)

Clue # 1 - coal bunker
Clue # 2 - culture clash with a brash but handsome Yank
Clue # 3 - post-war Northern England
Clue # 4 - eggs

Vera Drake?.........

Can you tell I am really guessing & desparate LOL!

Pat

Clue # 1 - coal bunker
Clue # 2 - culture clash with a brash but handsome Yank
Clue # 3 - post-war Northern England
Clue # 4 - eggs
Clue # 5 - flight to freedom

Also, where is everybody? Are they on holiday?

The reason I chose it for this round is that I've been working on some film-themed banners for a competition. The competition was introduced with a talk by Aardman Animations' co-founder David Sproxton, which was riveting and informative, mainly referring to their most recent production, the Wallace & Gromit feature film Curse of the Wererabbit. Must get that one on DVD!

Oh, and the other reason for choosing Chicken Run - I actually had Ginger & Rocky on my wedding cake last year...

Take it away, CloudyDays!

Nick Park is so imaginative!

Do I see candy conversation hearts on your cake anyanka...(were you married on Valentine's Day?) Be Mine For Sure ..True Love... all those great 2 worded love sonnets. Or did you get custom ones made!? :-D

CloudyDays, GET ON WITH IT! [Shouted in bad Scottish accent with John Cleese voice]
