"The Birds" ? George

A very good chance. The first show as called "Danger Man" in the UK and "Secret Agent" in the US. The second show as called "Secret Agent" in the UK and the US. Patrick McGoohan played a retired secret agent swept off to "the island" In "The Prisoner." It was never stated that it was the same character he played in the previous series, but most viewers inferred that. "Rover" was a giant bubble which trapped anyone trying to get off the island.

No. This should give it away: Steve Carell Fred Willard Seth Rogen Harrison Ford Ben Stiller Kristen Wiig Kathryn Hahn Will Ferrell Danny Trejo Christina Applegate George

Right idea, but no. This is a more famous movie. George

Of course, this is from Last of the Mohicans. Do not try and bend the spoon. That's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth. What truth? There is no spoon.

This movie is from a famous director, and is a famous movie in its own right. The script was based on a novel, and the English translation of the novel's title is "Cold Sweat- From Among the Dead." This movie is largely set in and around San Francisco (California.) This movie had an alternate ending. As was common at the time, the European censors were appeased by an ending that made sure no villain got away. (It can be seen as a deleted scene in the Collector's Edition.) Two of the main characters are safe, and a radio announcement tells of the arrest of the mastermind behind the crime. It has been said that you need to see this movie at least twice to get it- once to focus on the plot, and once to focus on the characters and themes and so on. One criticism of this movie is the pacing- it suffers from a lack of explosions, fist fights, and flash, and the first half APPEARS to have little happening in it- the first time you see the movie. But if you trust that the movie earned its reputation and the director did as well, you can stick with it and observe the movie transform while you watch. Martin Scorcese raved about this movie. Among his comments- "As is the case with all great films, truly great films, no matter how much has been said and written about them, the dialogue about it will always continue." "In fact, it just stands alone - period. For such a personal work with such a uniquely disturbing vision of the world to come out of the studio system when it did was not just unusual - it was nearly unthinkable." He also praised the "astonishing" title sequence and the "tragically beautiful score." One of the main characters is seen early in the movie, in a high-rise apartment. It is his friend's apartment, not his own, and he is visiting. Otherwise, we'd have a rather curious question to pose to the character or the director. Roger Ebert said of this movie that it was one of the two or three best films this director ever made, and the one where he dealt most with the themes that defined his art, that it was the most "confessional." One of the most famous shots of the film was achieved by zooming the lens in while simultaneously pulling the camera back. The mission seen in the movie was an actual one, and exists to this day- although the movie added a bell tower that does not (which was obviously necessary for the movie.) The director has a "don't blink" cameo towards the beginning of this movie, in front of the shipyard, carrying a trumpet case. This movie is, apparently, famous enough that a remake has been considered. Robert Downey Jr has been cast to play the male lead, if it ever actually gets filmed. Since this film has a considerable following, the restoration of the film- restoring the color, remaking the audio- was accomplished rather painstakingly. They used the director's original notes concerning the audio tracks as guidelines. They were also clever enough to hide hisses, pops and bangs in the source tapes by adding sounds appropriate to the scenes- like extra seagull cries and a foghorn to the scene at Cypress Point. Due to a matter of who owned the rights to the movie, the movie was not released for DVD home viewing until 1998, but has been released several times since then, on DVD and Blu-Ray, as a standalone movie and as part of a collection of the director's works (at least 3 different collections have been done and included it so far!) (It was released on VHS in 1985.) At the time this movie was released, the reviews were lukewarm at best in the US and in the UK. In France, the reviews were positive. (Ideas about what makes a great movie can vary from country to country, and is one reason why "foreign" films can seem so foreign when we try to make sense of them.) The British Film Institute does a once-a-decade list of what leading critics consider the top 10 films of all time. This film, initially, did not make the list. Later, it reached the list, and has moved up and down in the top 10, even holding the top spot once. Critics disagree as to whether this film classifies as "film noir." It is in color, but the plot, tone and motifs are pointed to as the qualifiers by dissenters.

You might want to try to narrow down the possibilities a little. Perhaps if you figured out who the director was, you'll get there, or get close to the answer. (That was not a clue, just a suggestion.)

"You be strong, you survive. You stay alive, no matter what occurs! I will find you. No matter how long it takes, no matter how far, I will find you."

Any chance this was "The Prisoner"???

Wild, wild swing here.... "the Green Hornet"???????

Wild swing here.... "Peter Rabbit"???

Continuing from Jessica Alba, the Fantastic Four Chris Evans Captain America-Civil War

Carry on then.

One actor was the star of three shows, The first one had a different title in the US from its title in the UK. The second one had the same title in both the US and UK, and it was the US title of the first show. The third was never officially called a sequel to the second, but it was, for all intents and purposes. All remaining clues pertain to the third show. Throughout the show, the star is menaced by "Rover" (not a dog, more of a device). The Butler (played by Maltese actor Angelo Muscat) never speaks, and appears in more episodes than anyone else, other than the star. The show was filmed in the North Wales resort village of Portmeirion over the course of a year. The star was inspired to film his series there after filming a couple of the first show episodes in the village. The building in Portmeirion shown as the star's house in the series became a gift shop selling show-related merchandise. Although the show was sold as a thriller in the mold of the first series, its surreal and Kafkaesque setting and reflection of concerns of the 1960s counterculture have had a far-reaching influence on popular culture, and the series ultimately developed a cult following Name the third show. For extra credit, name the other two. George

OK, then. Chip Diller Timothy Fenwick, Jr. Ren McCormack George

1: "Well! What's the matter with them?" 2: "Why are they acting that way?" 3: "Why, don't you know? They're twitterpated." 1,2,4: "Twitterpated?" 3: "Yes. Nearly everybody gets twitterpated in the springtime. For example: you're walking along, minding your own business. You're looking neither to the left, nor to the right, when all of a sudden, you run smack into a pretty face. Woo-woo! You begin to get weak in the knees. Your head's in a whirl. And then you feel light as a feather; and before you know it, you're walking on air. And then you know what? You're knocked for a loop, and you completely lose your head!" "You must never rush out on the meadow. There might be danger. Out there, we're unprotected. The meadow is wide and open, and there are no trees or bushes to hide us. So we have to be very careful. Wait here. I'll go out first. And if the meadow is safe, I'll call you." George

Well, you only gave four quotes. It took a little triangulating! George

Took you long ng enough!

OK, Avengers: Infinity War George

Actually, I had already posted... George

Dial it back one notch

I had the wrong actor from Iron Man 2 in my head. So, let's go with; Sam Rockwell Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri Woody Harrelson

Okay,Thanks then, WordWolf.
