All correct. Very well done!
The Irish actor in no.8 was Richard Harris (just in case anyone is interested)

Just no.6 left now.

Gettign slightly difficult to follow all of the threads within the thread here! Were the above answered? I know I've seen 10, but can't for the life of me remember what it's called. 9 looks weird enough for me to have a look!

It'd be worth adding a "may be NSFW" to the title too. I'd be done at work if I was caught looking at some of the more recent screencaps!

EDIT: or maybe put the more risque screencaps in spoiler tags.

Minimized window definitely advisable for a few of these :pac:
Which just adds to the challenge even more!

1. At a guess - Paper Moon?
9. Foreign Correspondent

delbertgrady

Paper Moon is wrong, but Foreign Correspondent is spot on! Well done.
No. 1 is from a black and white sequence in a 1969 colour film.

Clues for some of this lot still left:

1. 1980s "indie" movie
5. Oscar winning drama from the 90s
6. An Oscar winner for best foreign language film
8. 1960s film from an acclaimed European Director, which featured an Irish actor

No clue for 2 - it's too easy. Someone has to spot it:)

is number 2 Shine?

delbertgrady

I think I got that one.
That was The Hours.

Guessing Rear Window and Shadow of the Vampire? I can see a couple of the others wrecking my head too :pac:

Correct! Caché should give you a clue to no. 6.

Right again - which should give you a clue to 2-4.

delbertgrady

2 is Cary Grant and Jessie Royce Landis in the peerless North By Northwest!
4 looks like Madeleine Carroll and Robert Donat in The 39 Steps.
6 is Amour. (edit: Zeek 12 below beat me to this, while I was still editing my post)

I've never seen it, but is 3 actually glaringly obvious in being "Champagne", the early Hitchcock comedy?

is #3 The Apartment?

All correct - well done. It's not Champagne, or a comedy. It is a Hitchcock though.

If you're talking about my no. 3, then nope.
