7. The Shout

Riskymove

In 8 is this a film within a film? i.e. it looks like a film set in the picture?

Is it about a stuntman or somehting like that?

You're on the right track, it is a set (of sorts). But it has nothing to do with stuntmen

Just these two left

Some clues for these:

3.A 60s British movie which makes a case to reform a particular piece of law

8. The lead actress was quite a recent Oscar winner at the time of this movie's release. Her male co-star would go on to be an Oscar winner and multiple Oscar nominee in later years.

for some reason "The Dead Pool" pops into my mind

Zeek12

Victim is correct. Well done.

8. is not The Dead Pool, it's an older film.

The Eyes of Laura Mars.

Faye Dunaway had won Best Actress for Network a few years earlier.
Tommy Lee Jones would later be nominated for Best Supporting Actor for JFK and Lincoln and win for The Fugitive.

Correct. Well done.

Incidentally Jones was also nominated for In the Valley of Elah

... meanwhile, poor Ms. Dunaway ended up in Supergirl.

Altered States is right - well done - but it's not Spellbound.
It's a different film with the same two men starring and directing.

Well done.

7. The Paradine Case?

delbertgrady

Yes, indeed. Well deduced.

6. La Guerre Est Fini (I'm sure that's Genevieve Bujold!)

delbertgrady

Extremely well done!
The still alone may seem ordinary enough, but it's a memorable sequence, if you've seen the film.

It's the right actor, but the wrong film. Much earlier.

2 is A Clockwork Orange, you sly dog! I've seen it enough times to know that particular Jesus anywhere.
5 is The Man in the White Suit.
8 is Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

8. is correct too. Well done.

Nope, afraid not. But you're on the right track with the actress!

delbertgrady

Then it's A Reflection of Fear.
I see Sondra Locke in a creepy looking house and immediately think Willard.

Zeek12

Its not A Reflection of Fear either!

delbertgrady

The Heart is a Lonely Hunter.

Which is not a creepy house movie at all - I was on totally the wrong track.

Bingo, that's it.

The house is more dilapidated than creepy!
