The Impossibly Difficult Name that Movie Game

There's nothing quite so memorable as an evening of dinner and dancing...especially in such a beautiful location as this. A few of these characters remembered this evening well, but how sharp are your memory skills? Does this scene look familiar? If it does, tell us the title of the film you think it is from and you'll win a prize! 

 ( Click on the image to view it larger...but alas, it won't be any clearer.)

As always, if you are not familiar with the rules to The Impossibly Difficult Name that Movie game or the prize, click here!

GAME OVER. 

Congratulations to The Tactful Typist for correctly identifying the film this screenshot came from - Island in the Sun ( 1957 ) starring Harry Belafonte, James Mason, and Joan Fontaine. Some of the local island socialites are enjoying a country club dance in this scene.

    Is it "Love is a Many Splendored Thing" ?

      No, CW...good try but guess again! These dancers aren't barefoot, they have shoes on their feet!

    It seems like I should know this one! Um, I know it's not, but could it be Roman Holiday?

      No, I only wish Roman Holiday was in beautiful color like this film!

    Could this be a scene from Nancy Goes to Rio? Elizabeth Taylor wore a similarly coloured yellow dress...

      Was Elizabeth Taylor in Nancy Goes to Rio? It's been such a long time since I've seen that film I don't even remember her in there....but no, sorry, this screenshot isn't from the film!

    Is this a scene from Houseboat with Cary Grant and Sophia Loren?

      A good guess! It does look like that country club dance scene, but no, that's not the film. Try again!

    This is such a wonderful blog. Thank you for all your efforts and insights. That sort'a looks like Dean Martin in the foreground. Is it Ten Thousand Bedrooms by chance?

      Thank you, Mr./Ms Unknown, we're glad you enjoy our blog! Ten Thousand Bedrooms...now that's a rare film and a really good guess, but sorry, it's not correct. Try again!
