Cryptic Films

1980s Film. Nominated for Oscars and won some BAFTA’s…

Chariots Of Fire?

No sorry. It was made in a very successful period for this director who’s still going strong…

The clue’s a bit contrived…

Mississippi Burning?

No sorry. This was a very early film for Zoolander and for one of the many Bruce Waynes…

Empire of the Sun

Correct Devo, as I said I bit contrived (M, Pyre of the Son) - well done and glad to hand over to you…

I thought of M & Pyre yesterday but didn’t think to put them together!

Now,

Doe his car have bucket seats?

Pale Rider?

Correct!

Whilost waiting on Amac…

A tree from Bengal?

Struggling with this one Arena.

The Third Man (Hari Lime). Might need a clue…

Tiger Bay?

I think you have it there Devo…

I’ll take my earlier go while waiting on Arena…

How Danny la Rue would appear on stage?

Just Like a Woman

No, not that one. I remember the Dylan song but not the movie - apparently starred Julie Walters.

Becoming Jane?

Dressed As A Girl.

No, not these two ladies…

Maybe a bit more cryptic. Appear can be taken a couple of different ways…

This was one of the most profitable films of all time but sadly that didn’t do its star much good…
