Filmbrain's Screen Capture Quiz: Round 15, Week 6

Grüße aus Berlin!

A thousand apologies for not posting any additional updates from the festival, but the days are long, the nights longer, and I've had little time to sleep, let alone blog. Lots is on the way, just have to get through a few more days of screenings, meetings, and, yes, parties.

Quick updates - the new Hong Sang-soo (Night and Day) and the Mike Leigh (Happy-Go-Lucky) films are wonderful. The Errol Morris (Standard Operating Procedure) and Isabel Coixet (Elegy) are disappointments. Best thing I've seen at the fest is Johnnie To's Sparrow, but more on that to come.

Up until yesterday my bet was that There Will Be Blood would walk away with the Golden Bear, but now my money is on Happy-Go-Lucky. We'll know in a few days...

The ingénue from last week's quiz was none other than Ms. Heather Graham, from Alan Parker's Rudolph's vastly underrated Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle. Speaking of Ms. Graham, her face is plastered all over the EFM on a poster for the awful-looking Buy Borrow Steal, a comedy about a woman who has only thirty days to conceive a child. Oh the hilarity!

This week: a well known painting co-opted. Name the film. Submit your answers to this address. Good luck!

Potter's field?

Alan Parker?! Tut, tut, Mr Grant. Surely you mean the much superior Alan Rudolph...

Mrs. Parker + sleep deprivation = Alan Parker. Thanks guys.

Great to hear that Mike Liegh is back on his game! All of Nothing was truly disappointing, like a parody of miserablism, and Vera Drake was very great but not to the level of his former work. I'm on the edge of my seat....

very disappointed to hear mediocre things about S.O.P... that was number one on my list of most anticipated new films. but I'll settle for a solid Mike Leigh film I suppose
