  1. C'mon Raf - put us out of our misery! :o
  2. Space Oddity - David Bowie Don't throw bouquets at me Don't please my folks too much Don't laugh at my jokes too much
  3. Yes! The helicopters were trying to zap Godzilla but they managed to zap the Chrysler Building instead when Godzilla dodged the missile. Your turn!
  4. Apache Pilot #5: Oh! Damn, uh! That's a negative impact, sir! I repeat, that's a negative impact! Mayor Ebert: Negative impact? That's the goddamned Chrysler Building! Mayor Ebert: What the hell's the matter with you people? Mayor Ebert: You've caused more damage than that goddamn thing did!
  5. Not White Christmas. This one has some great music but it's not a musical.
  6. I can't believe that nobody has got this after two days!
  7. "No, I don't think I will kiss you, although you need kissing, badly. That's what's wrong with you. You should be kissed and often, and by someone who knows how."
  8. Spoken by the Joker (Jack Nicholson) in Batman I believe.
  9. Yes it's a movie directed by Stanley Kubrick. Ryan had the eponymous role. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Lyndon But let's try another movie to get things flowing again. Ryan O'Neal Paper Moon Tatum O'Neil
  10. No I don't mind at all But as to Raf's clue I don't know where to begin.
  11. I was watching the extras to my new 70th anniversary Blu Ray edition of Gone with the Windand it mentioned that Jane Darwell who played Mrs Merriweather had made her final screen appearance as the Bird Woman in Mary Poppins. The plot would work in that Mary Poppins had sung to Jane and Michael Banks about her in the song Feed the Birds and they had tuppence which the old Banker was trying to get from them when they would rather have fed the birds with it. He sings them a song about banking then grabs the money. The children scream that they want their money which is overheard by other people in the bank and this causes a run on the bank with everyone screaming for their money, thinking that the bank must be going under. Their father works for the bank and is dismissed because of the actions of his children and the result it caused. I'm not sure that a Nanny is quite the same as a domestic servant (and indeed they were more "upstairs" than "downstairs") but it's the best thing I could come up with. Am I right or just kite flying?
  12. Thinking along the lines of consequences (as opposed to my big words...) Was this as a result of direction action by this servant or rather their influence over someone else who started the riot?
  13. I only know it from that movie, so yes it's Braveheart/
  14. Yes it isn't always easy given that we all have different tastes in movies and I see a lot named I have never heard of and vice versa. OK let's try this one word one.... Freedom! This is from another Oscar winning movie.
  15. I hope you have all seen it - it was Gosford Park. Free Post!
  16. Here is another quote from the movie spoken by another Oscar winning actress (though not won in this movie). "If there's one thing I don't look for in a maid, it's discretion. Except with my own secrets, of course."
  17. Yes scriptwriter is the same thing. Not Howards End - Anthony Hopkins was in that one. At least two other Oscar winning stars are in this movie though gained for other performances. The words quoted are spoken by one of them.
