Quiz: Name that movie

[Frindis]

@IndecentLouie It is not. I see why you would think that though.

 

[IndecentLouie]

I'm stumped, clue or a second screenshot?

 

[Frindis]

The picture gives a clue as to the title of the movie. I'll post a second screenshot a bit later if no correct answer has been given.

 

[I Will Haunt You]

Well, I see a man with what looks like a camera on a beach. That rings zero bells for me.

 

[Frindis]

It is a Sovjet movie from the late 1920s, directed by Dziga Vertov. It is a movie trying it's best to break away from the classic way of making movies. Even to this day, this movie stands out in its way of showing the camera becoming the film and the film becoming the camera.

 

[I Will Haunt You]

It is a Sovjet movie from the late 1920s

Dammit! I knew I should have majored in Classic Russian Films in college instead of computer technology.

Last hint before giving the answer:

 

[IndecentLouie]

I've no idea mate.

 

[Pifanjr]

This thread went from popular movies to 1920s Sovjet movies pretty quickly.

 

[Frindis]

@Pifanjr Not just any Sovjet movie, The Soviet movie (at least I think it is very good)

Since we have no winner, I nominate @Pifanjr

 

[IndecentLouie]

@Pifanjr ah it's all in good fun, it's a nice way to learn about movies we all might not have seen

 

[Frindis]

@Pifanjr Do you want to continue with a picture of your choosing or shall I nominate someone else?

 

[Pifanjr]

My comment was not meant as criticism, I thought it was just funny how quickly it went from pictures of the most popular movies to pictures of movies no one had even heard of.

My picture is somewhere in between probably. Not super popular, but I would expect most of you to know of it.

 

[Frindis]

@Pifanjr The picture looks very familiar. Especially that suit, though I cannot remember the ampoule. My guess is Pulp Fiction.

 

[indigit5l]

Limitless?

 

[Frindis]

@indigit5l ohhh, excellent guess!

 

[IndecentLouie]

I was thinking Limitless but I don't remember the pill being golden.
It's been a while since i've seen the movie though.

 

[Pifanjr]

No to both guesses

Edit: new clue

 

[IndecentLouie]

Equilibrium?

 

[I Will Haunt You]

Equilibrium?

Ooh, that has to be it. I totally forgot about that film.

 

[Pifanjr]

Equilibrium?

That's the one! You're up.

Ooh, that has to be it. I totally forgot about that film.

That was what I was going for, a movie that people know but have forgotten about.

 

[IndecentLouie]

@I Will Haunt You I also forgot, it's a great movie.

@Pifanjr thank you mate.
