Filmbrain's Screen Capture Quiz: Round 10, Week 11

With last week's quiz, I completed the trifecta of directors that were responsible for the (sadly) disappointing New York Stories. We had Woody, Marty, and now Francis. Yes, that's Colonel Kurtz's bedtime reading pile from Apocalypse Now, and if you dip into Frazer's The Golden Bough you'll find the origin of some of his ideas. As for the alt-text clue, the reference was to that oft-quoted line from Conrad's Heart of Darkness, "Mistah Kurtz - he dead." I've been terribly busy this week (as I'm sure most of you are) with both preparations for the holidays and playing catch-up with a few 2006 films that I missed earlier in the year. So far, there's been one late entry into the top ten (Children of Men), and who knows....there may be others. This week -- I desperately wanted to do a Xmas-y screen grab, but drew a blank as to films with appropriate scenes. So, for the first time, I've selected a film that I've used in a previous round (although it was a long time ago.) In what film will you find this particular Yule tree? Name the film, and have a very happy holiday. Submit your answers to this address. Good luck!

Dammit, the moment i saw "Golden Bough" I thought of Apocalypse Now; I just don't remember that particular shot. You don't count might have beens, don't you?

"So far, there's been one late entry into the top ten (Children of Men)"

I'm eager to hear your thoughts on that one, Andrew. I'm a big fan of Cuaron but had been hearing mixed opinions about Children of Men. I won't get to see it until its wide release. On the subject of late additions to the Top 10, I was blown away by The Queen last night and am trying to decide if it'll find its way onto my list. (Frears is on pins and needles in anticipation of the decision, I assure you.)

I'd also be interested to hear your thoughts on The Fountain, if you've seen it. I thought it was amazing.
