C603 -the staircase scene from Sunset Boulevard (1950)

Correct and well remembered. The image is from the famous scene where the memorable line "'All right Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up'' is spoken. I just watched this acene on Google again and it gave me chills watching it.

The musical on Broadway was great for that scene, it had an enormous video projection screen that covered almost the entire stage, when Norma walked toward the front of the stage for her 'closeup', it was on the screen, so she did actually get an enormous closeup (similar to the picture below).

Very effective!

604 The Third Man

Yes indeed C604 is The Third Man from 1949. Well spotted.

A classic Carol Reed film. Once heard who could forget the Anton Karas The Third Man soundtrack theme that he played on a zither

Well done. Peter Finch seen below as he appeared in his Academy Award winning Best Actor roll. William Holden who was also nominated for Best Actor was also excellent in the film in a less showy role.

606 clue is heist.

dedeposter · July 4

C606 reminded me of The Ladykillers (1955), it has the same colour look that the film does, but I don't think it's that film.

Yes you are right in thinking that it isn't The Ladykillers.

A clue is not a British film, but one set in a more exotic country. Ponder this clue along with the earlier mentioned clue heist.

How about I extend my previous clue heist to be another heist, I just wish this great film was better known today.

HONDO · July 6

A final clue for C606 is a strong connection to a classic heist film from the 1950's.

C606 is indeed Topkapi from 1964.

A great suspenseful film well worthwhile seeking out.

I'll check it out! I like heist films.

HONDO · July 11

C608

C609
Something a little different this time around with one of the images presented. here.

dedeposter · July 11

C609 - Too easy, so I'll leave it to someone else.
C608 - I'd be guessing because I think it's from a film I haven't seen, so I'll wait a bit.
