    Correct. The Third Man was a 1949 release. Certainly one of the movie greats, and who could forget the opening credits solo zither music soundtrack by Anton Karas playing The Harry Lime Theme.

    C39 Taps

    It is, but you obviously missed that Sven had successfully answered it a little earlier.

     C37 is still waiting to be answered and I would think this film would be in your wheelhouse.
  • C37 River of No Return?
  • Correct. Yes it is River Of No Return from 1954, and it is a guilty pleasure of mine.

    Four more film images to be identified. They should be well known films, with the exception of one guilty pleasure of mine which doesn't cater for every ones tastes. 
  • C43 Pale Rider

  • C40 The Killing
    Correct. The Killing from 1956. An excellent early directed Stanley Kubrick film, with brilliant use of music applied during the opening film credits, which you can view a clip of this on youtube.com.




    Sven said:

    C42 Brewster McCloud
    Correct. Brewster McCloud  from 1970 and directed by Robert Altman. Certainly a strange film and not for all tastes  but I enjoyed it.



    Bruce said:
    C41 Green Dolphin Street
    And correct again.. Green Dolphin Street was a 1947 release.

     C46  C47

    I'm sure one shouldn't have any problems remembering these scenes if these films happened to have been viewed in the past. I would say, as certainly in my case, once seen not easily forgotten.
  • C44 Casablanca
  • Sven said:
    C44 Casablanca

    Correct. Casablanca from 1942. One of the great scenes in motion picture history from one of the great films.

  • C47 Breakfast at Tiffany's

    C47 Breakfast at Tiffany's

    It is indeed Breakfast At Tiffany's from 1961.

                                                             
     I am not the greatest fan of Breakfast At Tiffany's, and that I am not in the majority of people who have seen the film and do like it. To me the male marmalade tabby cat played by Orangey is the best thing about the film. I will list few facts about him. He had a long acting career ( for a cat,) making ten feature films ( 1951 / 1965 ) and as well as making appearances in eight television series including Batman. 


    Appearing with Eartha Kitt as The Catwoman in the third series of Batman, 

      

    Rhubarb ( 1951 ) appearing in the above scene with Ray Milland, and  also The Incredible Shrinking Man ( 1957 ) seen menacing Grant Williams.

    Orangey won two Patsy Awards for animals, and is the only one to have won the award twice. He received the awards for Rhubarb ( 1951 ) in 1952 as Rhubarb  and for Breakfast At Tiffany's ( 1961 ) in 1961 as The cat.   
                                                                                                                    
  • I'm with you Lawrence, I know BAT gets alot of love, but I could take it or leave it...
  • I reckon BAT is one of the most overrated movies. Nice daybill though

    A big problem I have with the film is in the casting. George Peppard who was so good the previous year in Home From The Hill lacked something in his performance here.  What completely didn't work for me though is that the really great actor Mickey Rooney was totally miscast in his role,

    Yes the Australian daybill is nice, except the image on it which was copied from U.S.A. artwork of the cat, is that of a kitten. It also appears  to me to be  a female cat, and not an image of an adult male cat.

       

  •   Clue for C45 is Randolph Scott. 

      Clue for C46 is you need to figure out who is behind the woman in the wheelchair. 
  • C46 Kiss of Death. Richard Widmark the man behind the wheelchair
  • C45 Ride the High Country?

  • Sven said:

    That is correct. Kiss Of Death from 1947. This was the impressive film debut of Richard Widmark who payed the sardistic Tommy Udo. He is seen  seen below about to throw an old lady down a flight of stairs.
