    Yes C571 is the Australian film The Picture Man from 1977.

    At the beginning of the1900s a man, his son and a piano player travel around Australia showing the first silent movies
    . (edited from The Picture Show Man inclusion on IMDb).


    The touring movie shows in Australia took place from the silent film days through to the sound period and continued until the late 1960s. and in Tasmania at least until the very early 1970s,

    Correct. Great film performances all round. In The Heat Of The Night from 1967.


  • A clue for C574 is an interesting cameo appearance from someone importantly involved behind the scenes with the creation of this film.  
  • When I first saw C574 it reminded me of the 1956 Invasion of the Body Snatchers. I went to imdb and Sam Peckinpah is listed in the credits! Is that it? If so, what did he have to do with it?

    Good thinking Bruce but unfortunately it isn't the case. 

    The following information will hopefully assist. The person in question, along with the film's director adapted the screenplay from a novel by another famous novelist from that period of time,.
  • C574 is Double Indemnity.  Ugliest car of the late 30s
  • jayn_j said:
    C574 is Double Indemnity.  Ugliest car of the late 30s
    Correct. Double Idemnity from 1944. An internet source credits the car as being a 1937 La Salle touring sedan.

    My clue referred to Raymond Chandler who with the director Billy Wilder wrote the screenplay that they adapted from the novel written by James L. Cain.         



     
    Raymon Chandler's cameo appearance, in the film.

  •  C576  C577
    Two more film images to be hperfully identified.
  • Two wild guesses
    C577 Dante's Inferno
    C576 Gypsy

  • Bruce said:
    Two wild guesses
    C577 Dante's Inferno
    C576 Gypsy
    The first wild guess for C577 is incorrect. I do like that you had a go though Bruce.

    Your second wild guess for C576 was spot on though, so well done. Gypsy from 1962, Three supporting actresses appear in the below scene.

     .
  • A C578 clue is some original censorship problems.
  • Is C577 Freaks (1932)?


    Peter
  • edited March 16
    Is C577 Freaks (1932)?
    It isn't Freaks. Think sexual content bring involved rather than horror.
  • The Outlaw or Hell's Angels?

    The Outlaw or Hell's Angels?
    Sorry but the answer for C577 isn't either of these films.

     How about ''Peel me s grape'' then,  Does this assist?
  • C577 - I'm No Angel (!933). That clue gave it away!


    Peter
  • C577 - I'm No Angel (!933). That clue gave it away!
    Correct. Part of an amusing line I remember was spoken by Mae West in the film.
