    I'll do a few, some are harder than others! Think hard about the first one, it's a memorable scene from a director who's on the news and tv lately...

    I'll give a clue, it's an early film by a now fairly well-known director. He's very bald and very English.

    Need an extra clue?
    This character's name is Fag-ash.

    Ok, here's the next round! I'm not sure if number 5 is too easy or too hard...There is a dead giveaway and it was a very popular film.

    Deepblue - You are 100% right! Philippe Petit looking beautiful there. It was a challenge to find a screenshot that wasn't too easy or too hard.

    tricky d -It is THX 1138, well spotted. Again, 99% of this film would be very, very easy to recognise.

    These three left

    Both wrong, but DeepBlue is closer.

    For 5. the squiggle on the sign is significant, isn't it?
    It seems familiar but I can't quite place it.

    Yes that's the big hint! Think hard and you'll get it!

    It's very mainstream, not a typical film for this thread.
