Filmbrain's Screen Capture Quiz: Round 7, Week 10

Let's see....Bergman, Fellini, Maya Deren, more Bergman, Ken Jacobs, Bela Tarr, still more Bergman, Philippe Garrel, and of course, Bergman. That grainy, somewhat surreal black and white image from last week's quiz stumped a good many of you, but still a small handful were able to spot Charlotte Rampling in Stardust Memories, from the adjectival Woody Allen (wrench). Easily one of the Woodman's best (and a Filmbrain fave), it was made while he was well into his Euro-influence phase, so the Bergman/Fellini guesses are understandable. This week -- what's going on in the creative bullpen? Name the film, and for a bonus point, describe the somewhat vague Lenny Bruce reference that appears towards the end. As always, submit your answers to this address. Good luck!

This one's almost as easy as the "Citizen Kane" still that started this contest.

Well...after last week, I thought I'd throw out an easier one. Still, nobody's yet to come up with the Lenny Bruce-related reference.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to pitch a film by throwing out all the jawboning and just walking in with a still like this one? Such a picture has to be part of a movie, and if the movie had not been made yet, it would need to quick.

I didn’t get that last one because I was thinking Euro too. And maybe also because I almost never think about Woody Allen anymore. Bet I’m not alone on that.

I think a guy named Mussburger was in the house band when Lenny Bruce played the Copa in 1957.

[Filmbrain]

Hmmm....I wonder if that's verifiable. Still, not what I was going after.

Of course, I could be wrong about the homage to Lenny. . .

If I could *remember* the ending I still wouldn't have a chance....

These screen caps (here and at cinephiliac) are invariably a humbling experience.
