Wow, perfect through the first 7 and hopeless on the last 3. Joel Send a noteboard - 28/02/2012 07:28:27 PM
The British film critic Barry Norman recently produced his list of "The 100 Greatest Films of All Time". See if you can identify these films chosen from his list.

1. Walt Disney computer-animated film (2001) about an ugly smelly green ogre with a heart of gold.

Shrek
2. 1989 film for which Meg Ryan is best known for the scene in which she fakes sexual ecstasy in a busy restaurant.

When Harry Met Sally
3. 1941 film that looks back on the life and career of a fictional newspaper magnate played by Orson Welles.

Citizen Kane
4. 1972 film musical starring Liza Minnelli as the cabaret singer Sally Bowles.

Cabaret
5. 1959 film comedy starring Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis as two jazz musicians who disguise themselves as women.

Some Like it Hot
6. 1938 Errol Flynn film about the outlaw hero of innumerable tales and legends set in medieval England.

Robin Hood, presumably (OK, fine then; I am counting this one.)
7. 2007 film of book by Cormac McCarthy about the violent world of drug-trafficking near the Rio Grande.

No Country for Old Men? Really have no clue here.
8. 1933 Marx Brothers movie whose title refers to an easily accomplished task or assignment.

A Day at the Races, I hope; I had always understood horsefeathers to be a synonym for nonsense. And now that I have checked: Bah, should have gotten it. :[
9. Award-winning 1997 film adapted from 1990 novel by James Ellroy.

No earthly idea.
10. Stanley Kubrick's 1957 film about mutinies in the French Army during the First World War.

Again, not a clue.
