The Impossibly Difficult Name that Movie Game


"Pop..pop...pop...pop!!" This old jalopy is sputtering down a wooded lane while a spiffy Rolls tags behind. If you've seen the movie this screenshot is from you would remember this scene. If you haven't seen the movie....oh dear, its a tough shot!

As always, if you are unfamiliar with the rules to the game or the prize, click here.

GAME OVER. 

The Tactful Typist correctly guessed this screenshot as being from the 1942 comedy A Yank at Eton. Mickey Rooney and his classmates had just hopped aboard a japoly ( getting a friendly push from another car ) to race back to Eton to get even with a young lad who needed a come-uppance.

  1. I'm going to make a wild guess - I haven't seen this movie in years but "Ball of Fire"?

    1. That's a really good guess, Phyl! It's not the right film, but I mighty fine guess just the same.

  2. One of these days you're going to post a shot from a movie I've actually seen! I'm sure of it :-D

    1. How do you know these aren't screenshots from films you have seen? Some of them we wouldn't recognize ourselves, and we post them!

    2. Good point. So far the ones that have ended have all been from movies I haven't seen, though.

  3. Haven't seen Small Town Girl with Janet Gaynor in a long time. Is this from when drunken college kids are headed to the football game?

    1. That's not the right title, but thanks for dropping it....you've just introduced us to a film we have not yet seen!
