O.k. let's run with Sunday then. In the meantime for others a couple of clues that hopefully will assist.

A clue for C608 is had a huge hit title song of the same name.
A clue for C609 is short film.

dedeposter · July 13

Hmmm, don't think my guess for C608 will be right then, I'll answer 609 later today if no one else does.

dedeposter · July 13

C609 - The Music Box (1932), classic Laurel and Hardy (remake of the now lost "Hats Off").

If no one else answers C608 tomorrow I'll hazard a guess, although I think I'm wrong.

Correct and well done. A very funny film. I saw it when I programmed it at the film society that I was involved with many years ago. Two other Laurel and Hardy short films Liberty (1929) and The Battle Of The Century (1927), along with a number of Buster Keaton, Charles Chaplin , D.W. Griffith and other notable short films that were mainly silent titles were screened including the well known The Great Train Robbery from 1903..

Yes C608 is indeed Georgy Girl from 1966. Lynn Redgrave appearing in the image.

So much for me thinking it might have been Rosemary's Baby!

C611
These two images I am thinking shouldn't present a problem in one being able to provide the answers for them.

Bruce · July 19

I am 99% sure C611 is Robert Altman's Nashville. I loved most of the movie, and thought two of the songs ("I'm Easy" and "200 Years") were among the best original songs EVER in any movie.

dedeposter · July 20

That's what I would have said too.

Correct and well done. Night And The City from 1950.
The previously pictured Googie Withers was the Australian connection clue. A great recommended Jules Dassin film noir classic film.

Is 613 Paths of Glory (1957)?

Thanks for having a guess, but it isn't Paths Of Glory.

HONDO · August 2

Too difficult to answer it does appear, so I will now reveal the answer for C613 to be the Elia Kazan directed Man On A Tightrope from 1953.

Loosely based on real incidents involving the Brumbach Circus, which escaped from communist controlled East Germany to West Germany in 1950. (IMDb)

Your latest challenges.

HONDO · August 16

I thought C614 would be difficult, but on the other hand that C615 would have been easily recognised.

dedeposter · August 16

C614 looks so familiar but I just can't find it.

HONDO · August 16

A clue for both C614 and C615 is gambling involvement.

HONDO · August 17

The following are clues for some later television adaptations of the above films in question.
