    Has A been featured already?
    Is B Italian made?

    Yep. They were both shot at least partly in Italy & A has been mentioned before. A & B share a lead actor.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,273 ✭✭✭Morlar


    Got to say thanks to google for that one as I was stumped.
    Is B the original Manchurian Candidate???

    I thought that too. No idea what A is though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,159 ✭✭✭rednik


    Is B the original Manchurian Candidate???

    No and don't forget it is WWII movies on view.;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,159 ✭✭✭rednik


    Look to the actor on the left, he played many a role in war movies and as mentioned the role has very very strong Irish connections.;)

    I'm off to work now. All I can say is my brother Bobby would not be impressed with all of you.;););););)


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,159 ✭✭✭rednik


    I think the actor is Richard Todd, he was in the Longest Day and a few others
    Trying to think of the movie though

    Or do you mean the role is Irish or the actor is Irish?

    Not Richard Todd. The lead role is of Irish origin.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,986 ✭✭✭✭mikemac


    Ah, that's giving it away, I was sure that actor was Richard Todd but clearly not :o

    PT109 :)

    B

    Is A- miracle at st anna ? (Havent seen it but looks similair)
    B - Attack on Leningrad ?
    C- windtalkers ?

    (didn't show up for some reason)
    PS movie C does not show for me, also after this can we keep to the format of 2 pics per go ? Otherwise it could quickly get out of control.

    Was having trouble with it and fair enough to keep it to two so I've knocked out C
    You were correct though
