  • C37 is Goldie Hawn in Foul Play

    It certainly is Foul Play from 1978. I did display a lot of Goldie. Did that do it for you? 



     The following two scenes are interesting. Any comments fron anyone?




  • Knew it right off.
  • With the additional two added C37 images any comments regarding them would be most appreciated.
  • In the first image, the poster is for a fake title.  I thought it was referencing This Gun for Hire, but the AI has a different idea

    The poster shown in the selected region is a fictionalized prop poster for This Gun Is Mine, a fake movie featured in the 1978 comedy-suspense film Foul Play starring Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase. [1, 2]
    • The Prop Poster: The poster mimics a classic 1950s crime/noir style, listing actors Alan Ladd, Phyllis Calvert, and Paul Stewart.
    • The Real Movie: While This Gun Is Mine does not exist as a real film, the prop uses artwork, cast credits, and visual elements from the actual 1950 noir film Appointment with Danger (which also starred Alan Ladd, Phyllis Calvert, and Paul Stewart).

  • Good work, but to add to the posters situation many other actual film posters are displayed outside as well as inside the theatre. Posters include The Racket as seen above, The Sea Hawk, Harvey, The Killers, The Desert Hawk, Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo and one for the obscure 1944 'b' western film Trail To Gunsight, along with lots more.

      

    Finally there isn't a film titled Killers Walk Among Us as advertised at the fronr of the theatre. No such film exists.
  • Not at the time of the film, but...
    https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6261434/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_3_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_killer walks

    That's why I didn't include that film.
  • Killers Walk Among Us and The Killer Walks Among Us (2013) are a little different film titles. 
  • C36 clue is was recently discussed.
  • Disappointing no one else has cared to comment on the answered C37 Foul Play images. 

    A C36 clue is more colourful this time around.

    I thought Bruce or Peter would answer c36.

    The Nuart Cinema is in West LA, while the film is set in San Francisco.  There, I did another tidbit.

    ... and even Rick.
  • Sorry, limited time at the moment, haven't got time to scratch myself due to work commitments.

    Understood. Hopefully things will improve for you soon.

    Time is up for C36 to be answered. The answer is Quick Change 1990. 

      

  •  C38                                          C39  C40 C41
    Four images this time around featuring members of the equine family.
  • C38 is Harpo Marx in Go West.
    C40 features Francis the Talking Mule, but I can't narrow it down to which film. They did seven of them.  Francis wears glasses in Big Town Francis, but the frames are different.

    Yes C38 is indeed the 1940 film Go West featuring Harpo Marx.

    Good thinking but it isn't Francis the talking mule.. Think horse and not mule.
  • It would now appear that some clues would be in order.

    A C39 clue is horse race.
    A C40 clue is duo.
    A C41 clue is parody.
  • Is c41 Rustler's Rhapsody?
  • jayn_j said:
    Is c41 Rustler's Rhapsody?
    It certainly is, so well worked out. Rustlers' Rapsody from 1985.

     
  • A final clue for C39 Dr. .
    A final clue for C40 is a stooge.
  • I have some thoughts on c40, but I seem to be the only one playing here.
  • C40 - It Ain't Hay (1943). That would be Lou Costello on the left.


    Peter
  • C40 - It Ain't Hay (1943). That would be Lou Costello on the left.
    Correct and well solved. My final clue of a stooge referred to Shemp Howard from The Three Stooges also appearing in this film.

    I hope you also knew the answer then.
  • O.k. time is up to answer C39. My doctor clue referred to Groucho Marx playing De. Hackenbush. in the 1937 film A Day At The Races.

    Nope, I was going for Hoofs and Goofs or the aequel Racing Tracks.
