Well, congratulations to Jonas. I tried so hard, though! I had 84 locked down. All About Eve, Duck Soup (I just couldn't tell which Marx Brothers it was from that clip!), Sneakers and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels had me stumped. Damnation.
Anyway, great job with the montage, Alonzo.
Damn! So close! SNEAKERS had me over a barrel too, for a while, and then it came to me like a dream (It helped that I'd just seen THE UNINVITED, featuring David Strathairn.) I had 87 out of 88, after a mighty struggle with, of all things THE STING (I almost put THE COLOR OF MONEY!). But it was OCEAN'S ELEVEN that did me in. I didn't recognize Don Cheadle, and just assumed that any movie featuring Brad Pitt, sirens and a bit of stubble had to be SEVEN. Big ol' rats!
Oh, well, the most important thing is wishing Alonzo well on his upcoming journey into the magical land of fatherhood. Hardest thing you'll ever experience at times, but also the most utterly rewarding and wonderful. All the best, A.M.!
