Well, I had fun. Sorry if I wasted your time.
I for one am glad you posted the answers. I only got one right, Hal in 2001.
ReplyDeleteNo - you didn't waste our time. It was a fun idea but many film-goers are like me - we don't retain details of films we've seen. There are so many other things to fill your brain with.
ReplyDeleteWell that was fun.
ReplyDelete:)
For what it's worth, I knew 5, 7 and 10. And I've seen Raising Arizona. Zany!
ReplyDeleteI thought it was a bit of fun too!
ReplyDeletecheers
Shooting Parrots, Yorkshire Pudding, A Lady's Life, Rosilla (Hi, Rosilla!), and Helsie, thank you for restoring my faith in our little band of bloggers!
ReplyDeleteThe winner by default is Rosilla, who knew three out of the 10, unless it is Elizabeth Stanford-Sharpe, who knew more than three but didn't comment on my blog. (Full disclosure: She communicated with me another way. No, it wasn't by mental telepathy. No, it wasn't by carrier pigeon either).
