Better late than never, I guess...
Yes, it's the start of a new round (the 19th!) of Filmbrain's weekly screen capture quiz. The rules are pretty much as they always were -- every Wednesday for the next twelve weeks a new quiz will be posted. Responses must come via email (please don't post in the comments) and you can submit your answers up until the moment the new quiz is posted. At the end of twelve weeks, the person with the highest number of correct answers will win be able to choose DVD used in the round as their prize. (Unfortunately, the economic crunch has hit chez Filmbrain, and for the time being I can no longer offer the prize to the top three winners.) In the event of a tie, I'll keep posting quizzes until there is a clear victor.
There's a slight twist to this round, and the inspiration came from an exhibit I saw in Berlin back in February with The Auteurs' Danny Kasman called Vorspannkino, which was a celebration of the art of the opening credit sequence. In darkened rooms over four floors were monitors displaying credit sequences from approximately fifty films. Though most of the exhibit was from the usual suspects (plenty of Saul Bass), there were some nice surprises as well. As a tribute to the exhibit, this round will consist solely of grabs from opening credits.Should be fun...
I'll start off with an easy one. Appropriately enough, this film is itself a first. Name it. Submit your answers to this address. Good luck!
