Correct. Raising Arizona from 1987. A great film and I am pleased that you appreciate it as well Ves.
I am positive that when I acknowledged that the High Anxiety answer was correct the reply from Ves wasn't present at that time, and only appeared sometime later. Technically is that possible?

Yep, definitely. All in the timing. Has happened to me before...
Wow, c83 is 5he African Queen. Near the start when the Germans destroyed Hepburns village.
Correct. The African Queen was released in 1951. Robert Morley never left England where all his scenes were filmed. There is one outside filmed on location scene in the movie using a double for Morley, which is extremely unconvincing. The double they used looked absolutely nothing in appearance like Robert Morley.
We are doing very well in receiving answers to my poster images, which is very pleasing, Let's see then if we can keep it going with these two new images.
Clues for C85, which may prove a little difficult to work out, are that this is a crime, drama and film noir genre film. The director and lead actress had a connection in real life. Finally there was an Australian born person who played a crucial part in the making of this critically well regarded film.
Yes the C85 answer is The Big Clock from 1948. John Farrow the Australian born director was married to Maureen O'Sullivan. They were the parents of Mia Farrow.
C87 is probably not a very well known film, or indeed worthy of being called a classic, but it is a underrated very well made film nevertheless. The above first image presentation is a clue in itself. A second clue is jazz.
Yes it is the cat fight scene from Destry Rides Again ( 1939 ). Marlene Dietrich and Una Merkel playing the feuding women. Destry ( James Stewart ) seen below breaking up the fight.
And a wild guess for C90 is Drums Along the Mohawk (a billion to one shot I am right!)
Correct in both cases. Bullitt from 1968 and John Ford's Drums Along The Mohawk from the year of my previously mentioned clue of 1939. The year of 1939 is considered by many as the best year for the greatest number of classic movies released in Hollywood history within a calendar year. Great guess with Drums Along The Mohawk Bruce.
And a wild guess for C90 is Drums Along the Mohawk (a billion to one shot I am right!)
Correct John Ford's Drums Along The Mohawk from the year of my previously mentioned clue of 1939. The year of 1939 is considered by many as the best year for the greatest number of classic movies released in Hollywood history within a calendar year. Great guess with Drums Along The Mohawk Bruce.
The reason I said "a billion to one shot" is because Drums Along the Mohawk is one of the few movies from the 1930s and 1940s by great directors that I have never seen, and I haven't even a clue as to its plot. But when you gave the clue about it being from 1939, it was the only movie I knew from that year with a setting that seemed to fit.
Normally I get your quiz answers because I actually remember the scene from the movie or poster. That is why I do so poorly on certain genres like war movies, because, except for the most classic ones, I mostly avoid war movies.
Please keep these quizzes coming! I really enjoy them. But it is a fine line between "too easy" and "too hard" and you do a great job walking that line!

Two more images to challenge you. I am thinking that the second image shouldn't present a problem in being identified though.
Correct . O Brother, Where Art Thou? from 2000. Another great Coen Brothers film.
C87 is probably not a very well known film, or indeed worthy of being called a classic, but it is a underrated very well made film nevertheless. The above first image presentation is a clue in itself. A second clue is jazz.
Two more images of films that have something in common.

A clue for C90 is the greatest year.
As there appears to be a problem also in identifying C90, a super clue then is 1939.
Two more images from extremely well known and loved films. I would think receiving answers for these two shouldn't present any problems.
