We had a few correct answers this week, so here are the results:
Game: Identify the Poster
Sabin and Lallolupo got the foreign-lingo poster correct: Sometimes a Great Notion. Lallolupo was the only one to get the second poster correct, however. It was for The Hustler, which you can see in its original color at the right.
Game: Film Mash-Up
Sam was our lone winner in this one:
Kingdom of Gate
…it’s a mash-up of Kingdom of Heaven and Heaven’s Gate
Game: Six Degrees of Oscar Separation
No one gave this one a try, so here’s my quick-and-dirty rundown.
CHALLENGE
Connect Roy Pomeroy, Engineering Effects nominee for Wings to Gulzar, Original Song winner for Slumdog Millionaire.
ROY POMEROY did the special effects for VICTOR FLEMING’s The Rough Riders
VICTOR FLEMING directed Gone With the Wind. Max Steiner composed that film’s score
MAX STEINER wrote the score for Key Largo starring LAUREN BACALL
LAUREN BACALL appeared in Dogville on which ANTHONY DOD MANTLE acted as director of photography
ANTHONY DOD MANTLE did the cinematography on Slumdog Millionaire with that film’s lyricist GULZAR
Game: Site Search
No one tracked down this simple response, so here’s the answer:
QUESTION
Peter J. Patrick referred to Cole Porter in his comments about what film from 1934? Answer: He was referring to the film The Gay Divorcée in his DVD Report this week: The DVD Report #152
Some of the fun for me is researching my links…granted, sometimes it just takes a small impetus (like Lauren Bacall in Dogville, which sent me back to Key Largo composed by Max Steiner.). I’ll probably mix the Six Degrees game between obscure and notable so everyone has a bit of fun.
I like to do these things in my head. The only way for anyone to have gotten this one would have to have been through research which for me takes the fun out of it.
