Radio Times The Big Film Quiz
161 Answers
Just wondering if anyone else is attempting this quiz? I think I have over 30 answers, which I am happy to share if anyone needs help. Stumped on the feather, big pink knickers, red kite, black tower, bbc microphone (thought The King's Speech but mic probably too modern), milk bottle, carrier bag, two stetsons.
Many thanks
Many thanks

Not convinced by either Gladiator or Braveheart for the guy on the wall but will have to plump for gladiator if all else fails. Not convinced about Catch 22 either but I can only find 39 potential answers - had a look with a magnifying glass and difficult to tell if it's 22 or II. Also the Kite runner? there is a film called the Red Kite but it's a bit obscure so not sure what to go for.
Hi Bronzino
Re your question about 40/41. I've done two lists. Based on everyones previous best choices. One with nothing replacing the Bag to keep it at 40. OR dropping the Moon instead of the Bag and making 40 that way. Another alternative combination is to add On the Beach, not The Beach as that was ruled out by RT, for either bag or moon. Yet another possibility is On the Waterfront another iconic movie for the Bag.
Cheers for the compliment!
The difference is an extra postcard or two! No stated restriction is there?
Re idea of Man for All Seasons, he was a priest not a warrior.
Black Hawk v Apocalypse Now. I doubled checked and suggest latter as 'copters for first not same type and the large number more fits title too.

Thanks to linda and quiz_girl. The comment about 'no restrictions' is very helpful! I must say i think the Moon is a clue. Look at it carefully - you can only see the moon that much detail, in daylight anyway, with a binoculars. It also fits with the easy clues 'clockwork orange, black swan, tom jones' etc. I also agree with getoverit - i have middle aged eyes too! I see II not 22. I think On the Waterfront is a nice idea - but the Bag is too glaring for me to ignore; it just happens to be the right colour too.
I am not entering this quiz But I LOVE trying to find the answers. I am sure that the grid/ gate behind the elephant man is something but I am not sure.
The red shoes are very ugly and don't represent the lovely shoes in "the red shoes" or the wizard of oz. But I think it must be "the red shoes". Also the fact that there appears to be two sets of lamps ( one with the blue lamp) and another further down. Is this significant I ask myself. Can't figure out that stone image as have seen Gladiators a few time and that stone image doesnt appear to represent anything related.

I thought the red kite was the film 'The Red Kite' or is that too simple? I think '2001' for the black monolith, 'Milk' for the milk bottle and 'Brokeback Mountain' for the two stetsons. Not sure about the microphone, the carrier bag or the knickers. I wondered about Bridget Jones or The Railway Children. What's the kid with the money?

I've now read all your answers so ignore my previous posting.
The large plane is a Lancaster (Dambusters) not a Flying Fortress (Memphis Belle). The helicopters are definitely from Apocalypse Now. I'm not sure about Gladiator for the plaque. It looks more mediaeval rather than Roman to me. I think the moon is too prominent in the picture not to be a clue so I'd go with Moon. I think Tightrope is more well known than Man On Wire. The cowboy hats are definitely from Brokeback. Google images for the fi;m and you'll soon see. I think Catch 22 is the clue they expect us to miss. I'm not sure about the red shoes. I'd go with The Red Shoes because they don't look like Dorothy's shoes from Wizard of Oz. I'm undecided between Tom Jones (my first answer) and Mars Attacks. I can't remember the latter well enough to picture Tom Jones in it but unless the picture matches exactly I think the answer has to be Tom Jones.

Does anyone read the previous posts before continually giving and asking the same question/answer that have been given umpteen times already.
Where has Catch 22 come from? The fang and the diary are from one film. The photo is here- http://harrypotter.wi...i/Tom_Riddle's_diary.
The feather is here -http://www.jonathanrosenbaum.com/?p=6960
The wire walker is here - http://blog.deeperque...uestion-of-imbalance/
The only answer i don't think has been found yet is for the red kite.Could be something to do with the wind (gone with the wind).
Every other film has already been answered in this thread.There is nothing left to find.
