Cryptic Films

Gravity?

No, not that one PR.

Sorry, miscounted, just failed to make double figure Oscar nominations but won 4.

E.T.?

The Grand Budapest Hotel

Nice clue and nice parsing.:slight_smile:

Thanks Dex and well done Devo :-D. Apologies for the miscounting but the minor nominations take up a lot of lines!

Over to you Devo…

Thanks. This is less obscure than my last clue…

Joke about issue.

Tomboy?

Not that one. This is a film from the 80s that is fairly well known. I haven’t seen it but I have read the original novel and it is excellent. The book also spawned a musical.

Ragtime?

Correct! Your turn…

Good clue Devo. Next:

The article contains fake news.

Considering it’s been described as one of the greatest films of all time this film did relatively poorly at both the Oscars and BAFTAs.

The Social Network?

PR, I was amazed that you identified The Social Network in the context of the greatest films of all time but then I read its Wikipedia entry and it does appear highly rated.

However this film is from the 1970s.

Alien

Well done Feey :023:

The article = An

Fake news = lie, hence A[lie]n.

Over to you…

ok heres the clue

Celebrity conflicts

Star Wars?
