Zeek 12 #5 is Repulsion (Catherine Deneuve's hands holding the razor).

Zeek 12 #8 I'm going to guess as The Damned, based solely on the Brownshirt.

Correct on both.
Very well done indeed. These ones were tricky!

Just 2 left now.

I'm probably WAY off the mark here, but I have this weird feeling that #3 is a flashback or sequence from a film that isn't in black and white. Am I right?

Yes, you're on the right track.
The movie begins with some disturbing footage of the past, then quickly jumps to present day (in colour) where the young boy in the shot is now an adult.

Not a bad guess. But No.
Similar era though. You're very close with the year of release

I don't recognise the still but maybe Knight Moves?

McSasquatch

Total guess because I haven't seen it in years, but is it Raising Cain?

Sorry, no. But a good guess all the same.

Some clues


4. A sci-fi thriller from the 2000's. I don't think it got much attention. This shot is from a "presentation" being attended by the main character.


7. Film set in Paris and released in both English and French dubs (I think). That's the director pictured (in the main role).


9. French film, which won a ton of awards in France and starred a famous french father/son pair (playing the same character at different ages).

Correct!

No, but you're on the right track: it's from a few years later.

5. Cet obscur objet du désir?

(I reckoned it had to be one or the other!)

delbertgrady

You reckoned right.

Is 6 Mesrine?

delbertgrady

It is Mesrine. (Part Two: Public Enemy Number One).
Well done.

4. I think this is Diane Keaton and Alan Alda in Manhattan Murder Mystery
7. Wayne's World 2?!

ButtersSuki

I half-thought 5 was "The French Connection", but something said "no" to me. Glad I didn't commit!

And yes, I know that's Fernando Rey and I know he's in TFC!

8. Looks like it could be from JFK, but i'm not sure.

It is Keaton and Alda in Manhattan Murder Mystery, retracing the route of the "bus to heaven", as Woody calls it.
And yes, it is the twin "Graduate" churches from Wayne's World 2.
Well done.

It is indeed from JFK. Well spotted.

I didn't recognise the character, but the sharp/grainy B&W film and old American car reminded me of JFK.

1. 1950s melodrama by the master of the genre
2. Alliteratively-titled early film by one of the great American directors
9. 1972 action drama: the man behind the wheel is arguably best-remembered for an earlier cult driving film
10. Fancy a girl who looks like that being a lowly fish cannery worker...

Complete guesses
1. Written on the wind??
Woman in the pic looks like Lauren Bacall.

10. Clash by Night

delbertgrady

Complete guess = correct answer. Well deduced. Douglas Sirk's Written on the Wind, with Lauren Bacall (pictured), Rock Hudson and Robert Stack.

Nope. This was answered a few pages back. It's Steve Martin having a conspicuous dinner for one in "The Lonely Guy".
