The Film Screenshot Game

Is that Roland Young? (On the left, I mean.)

Yes. Bloody hell, you're good, sir.

Go on...

[Ignatius_S]

Ha, that's about as far as I can place it - it's not one of the Topper films is it?

[Brundle-Fly]

A clue.

[Ignatius_S]

The Man Who Could Work Miracles?

[Brundle-Fly]

The Man Who Could Work Miracles?

Yes. Well done. I love that still of the angels.

[Ignatius_S]

It's such a lovely image - the first one was bugging me because I just couldn't place it!

Not fantastic image quality, so I've made it large...

[Brundle-Fly]

Hellzapoppin'?

[Ignatius_S]

Nope, it was actually a few years earlier - think more along the lines of one star.

[Brundle-Fly]

 So come on Ignatius, it's been over a fortnight; what is the film, I'm stumped and intrigued.

[Ignatius_S]

It's from Mae West's Belle of the Nineties and taken from this scene - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GuwHRRxIYyQ

Anyone want a go?

on Mae West?

[Ignatius_S]

on Mae West?

I won't judge.

[DJ Solid Snail]

Sure, I'll bite:



Clue: it's a woman holding a cat

[Dead kate moss]

Is it 'The Lady Who Wore Her Watch Far Too High Up Her Arm'?

[Ignatius_S]

The Killing?

[DJ Solid Snail]

No, to both. I was trying to avoid being too obvious, but I suspect I might've gone too obscure. So, hint: it shares a connection of sorts with Badlands.

[Ignatius_S]

Ah, in that case, I'll go for The Sadist, which is on a St Clair Vision Psycho-Rama collection that I have.

[DJ Solid Snail]

Yes! An ace film it is, too. I had no idea it'd had any kind of commercial release. Its copyright's run out, hasn't it?

[Ignatius_S]

Yup, absolutely cracking film! Pretty sure that it's now in the public domain as it's usually those films that are on the type of compilation I've got and it's the sort of film where the copyright is allowed to elapse - pretty sure it's had a couple of individual DVD releases.

Anyway, here's another chiller:

[Eis Nein]

It can get tasty on Skegness Prom of an evening.

[Ignatius_S]

*Clue* It's black and white. Also, I'm afraid Eis Nein dropped a red herring as most of the action takes place onboard a ship.

I think we got that it's black and white and nobody took Eis Nein's comment as a legit clue..
5 days without an attempt at an answer, Any chance you can give a better clue?

[Ignatius_S]

Hey, at least he had a go!

As most of you have probably noticed, the uniform is of a British admiral - the film was made the UK. The main character in the film is a very famous one and the person at the rear (or stern) of the still was married to the actor playing her.

Also, in the cast was one actor who died in 2010, who's arguably best known for comic roles and appeared with Peter Sellers in at least three films.

I would try and answer but fear I would end up with Dusty Bin

[Ignatius_S]

On the other hand, you would have made the best guess so far.

Another clue - there's a connection to Just A Minute.

[ElTopo]

Murder Ahoy!

[Ignatius_S]

Murder Ahoy!

Correct! I was going to reveal today, so well played.

[ElTopo]

I don't have many screenshots, so this will have to do:

[Eis Nein]

Santa Sangre.

[ElTopo]

Yep.
