And They'll Continue Singin' It Forever Just Because...

Well I had so much fun with our little game yesterday for JD's Endings Blog-a-thon over at Valley Dreamin' that I figured I'd take the opportunity of its continuation through today to do it all over again! Whee! Might as well spend my holiday somehow, and my brains are getting a little bit stir-fried from all the movie-watching. So here goes. Ten Thirteen (!) more final shots from ten thirteen (!) more of my favorite flicks. You tell me what they're from in the comments. I went a smidgen tougher this go-round - seriously, just a measly smidgen, I measured - because y'all proved your mettle quick-like yesterday. Now go!

Cache - guessed by Joel

Chinatown - guessed by Joel

Punch-Drunk Love - guessed by Mike

The Ice Storm - guessed by Janis

Holy Mountain - guessed by unclemike

Harold and Maude - guessed by Two Sheds

#3) Punch Drunk Love. I only remember hating this movie. I'll have to re-watch and re-kindle why.

Joel said...

1) is Cache i believe?
2) Chinatown?
7) Showgirls? (big guess on that one!)

Mike, you are correct on naming the movie, and WOEFULLY wrong on saying that PDL was anything less than FANTASTIC. ;-)

Joel, right on all three counts!

PS - I'll be away from my computer for the next few hours so I won't be able to call y'all's answers as right or wrong until later this afternoon. Keep guessing though!

Dennis

No. 9 (The crying lady) is definitely from Trois Couleurs: Bleu.

Number 4 is from "The Ice Storm", now is it not?

DirtyRobot said...

I also think:

4. THE ICE STORM

13. CHILDREN OF MEN

And...

10. THE CONVERSATION

11 is american psycho, non?

I do believe the one after Showgirls, of the little girl in the dark tying her ballet shoes, is from Audition.

I believe #5 is either El Topo or Holy Mountain (I saw them both in the same day, one right after the other, so they kind of blend).

Jason Adams said...

You all are so awesome I can't feel my feet. I go out for a couple hours, come back, and everyone's guessed everything correctly. Yay! Great job, everyone!

unclemike, it's Holy Mountain, and I can totally understand them blending together since they do in my brain too. Although, is it weird that I generally prefer HM to ET? I got a little bored by ET but was completely enthralled by HM the entire time.

And I knew more this time, GAH.
