Filmbrain's Screen Capture Quiz: Round 13, Week 3

Nope, this isn't going to be an all George Segal round. (Though that's not a bad idea.) That he happens to be the star of both Blume in Love and last week's quiz, No Way To Treat a Lady is pure coincidence. Well, maybe not so pure. Jack Smight's 1968 darkly comic policier isn't a great film by any means, but it has a lot going for it -- wonderful New York City location shots, Rod Steiger hamming it up to the nth degree as a psychopathic Broadway producer-cum-serial killer, a breathtakingly lovely Lee Remick, and, of course, George Segal as a Jewish detective with mother issues. (One of Remick's first lines to Segal is, "What a fascinating nose!" Ah...the 60s!) This week, a film that was missing from my collection for years (one of the dangers of lending discs to friends), but was replaced with a new copy just hours ago. This is a film everybody needs to see at least once. Name it. Submit your answers to this address. Good luck!

Ah, I love this movie. Too bad I had no clue on the last two.

I think you've inspired me to watch this again this week.

This one's too easy. Do you know this actor is now a major investment banker?

A film everyone has to see at least once? No way - this is a film that everyone must see every time they come back home from the pub slightly worse for wear.

I've seen the first 30 minutes of this film (then fallen into a drunken stupor) moore times than I care to remember.

Almost definitely the most quotable film of all time.
