Thanks PR. Next:

Arrange that wisest destroy account of bitter rivalry.

This is quite a simple clue where the last few words are just telling you what the film’s about. The film still holds the record for the most Oscars won by a film of this genre.

West Side Story?

You’re right PR - over to you…

Thanks Amac. Next: Greek letter to ruler with confused half poem. It’s easy!

The Taking of Pelham 123.

I tried thinking of a clue to that excellent film but gave up!

Well done Amac! Thought it would last a bit longer!!

Theta and king gave it away but still a good clue. Next:

Cannot start like Trump.

Idlewild?

Both apt words but sadly not correct Devo. It’s of a similar vintage though…

Idiocracy
I know it’s not right but wanted to put it out!!

Off Beat or Dead Beat

No sorry to both. This is a mid noughties film which did win one of the main 4 BAFTAs.

Closer?

Well done PR! Just in case anybody is in doubt:

Cannot start = C

like Trump = Loser

Over to you…

Thanks Amac. Next: Parent gets publicity retrospectively aspiring perhaps for a futuristic vehicle?

Madagascar

That’s the one Amac. Well done.

Thanks PR. Next:

Virgin and an officer are surrounded by holy men.

This 1990s film did win one of the minor BAFTAs and nominations for a previous best actress Oscar winner at both the Oscars and BAFTAs.
