2. Winter Break (George Lazenby)
10. The Lady Says No (David Niven, also Casino Royale)

Beyond the fact that these films all feature one or more actors who also appeared in Bond films, I can't find anything more specific than that to link them.

Wichita Lineman

Correct on the last 2 the actual link was that each of these movies had an actor appearing who actually played a character named ‘James Bond’ in a movie.

1. Daliah Lavi
2. George Lazenby
3. Timothy Dalton
4. Roger Moore
5. Ursula Andress
6. Daniel Craig
7. Sean Connery
8. Peter Sellers
9. Pierce Brosnan
10. David Niven

Well you certainly didn't make them all easy .

8 is showing now, is that Tim Curry? Looks mad young.

1 could be the Aviator?

NothingMan

9 is Chris Klein and the only army one I think he's in is We Were Soldiers. Awful actor.

Wichita Lineman

1. is The Aviator and 9. is We Were Soldiers.

4. Ragtime
6. I'll Do Anything
8. A Chorus Line

4. Ragtime
6. I'll Do Anything
8. A Chorus Line

All correct. That leaves 2,3,7 and 10. Any ideas yet on the theme?

NothingMan

Is 10 Problem Child? Or am I just being gingerist?

No and yes, probably

Not a clue. It's certainly not obviously Oscar-related. There are a lot of potential possibilities. I did think initially it might be to do with celebrity offspring (Michael being the son of Kirk Douglas, Danny being the son of John Huston), but I had to abandon that when nothing else leapt out.
Then I thought it might be that every film had a cast member that appeared in the Lord of the Rings trilogy (Brad Dourif, Ian McKellan), but I disregarded that too.

Wichita Lineman

Delbert is closer than he thinks - it is offspring and Oscar related but a bit more obscure than the names he mentioned. Look deeper my boy!

delbertgrady

The films all feature actors or actresses who have a parent that won an Oscar for either acting or directing.

2 is Elvis and Annabelle, starring Max Minghella, son of Anthony, Oscar winner for Best Director for The English Patient.
9 is The Babysitter's Club with Schuylar Fisk, daughter of Sissy Spacek, Best Actress Oscar winner for Coal Miner's Daughter.

Joely Richardson is in I'll Do Anything: her mother Vanessa Redgrave won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for Julia.
The two fathers I've said already (Kirk Douglas [honorary] and John Huston) have Oscars.

Surely it's no more complicated than that?

Wichita Lineman

2 and 10 are Elvis and Annabelle / Babysitters Club.

Very close on the link, it's actually Franchesca Scorcese, Max Minghella, Kimber Eastwood, Max Nichols, Mason Lee, Amy Brooks, Catherine Wyler, Nicole Fosse, Christian Gibson and Annie Costner all had roles (some very small) in these movies and their Dad's Martin, Anthony, Clint, Mike, Ang, James L, William, Bob, Mel and Kevin all won an Oscar as Best Director.

Use the names above as the clues to close off 3 and 7.

3. Freeway Maniac (Kimber Eastwood as "Girl Camper")
7. The Skeptic aka The Haunting of Bryan Becket.

WAY too obscure for me.

Yeah, you're right. Only one of the bunch that's not a sci-fi!
