World's Hardest Movie Quiz The Village Voice has offered a whopper of a contest. Unfortunately, the prize is rather measly.

  • and here are the answers.
  • Oh, you've gone and spoiled it all now, sciurus - I'm not strong enough to resist the temptation of looking at the answers.
  • World's hardest question.
  • Here's the answer.
  • The only one I recognise in the first section is number 1, and even then I'm not sure. Do we want to post answers? (Edit: I mean 1A.)
  • Might as well, the contest is over anyway. I can't really participate since I already looked at the answers. The only one I recognized right off the bat was 1B.
  • I think 1A is "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?".
  • Oh, is number 11 Humphrey Bogart?
  • I only got 1A and 1D (and I've checked the answers too, so I cannae participate), although I knew two of the languages from the last question, but couldn't remember the names. The two I knew were very nearly the only two films referenced in the list I'd actually seen. (Stupidly, I didn't twig that you were allowed to look the answers up on the internet.)
  • Uh, I knew 1A was from some classic vintage movie, I could even hear it in my head but I had the image of Joan Crawford and Bette Davis on the beach instead.
  • Name the other 3 *Four Seasons*, excluding Frankie Valli. . . .don't cheat. . .
