Correct! I didn't think it would be that easy with the clues had I listed. Anyway, the explanation for the clues (where needed):
Clue 2: Features two reteamings between its stars. Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis were in the movie "Some Like It Hot" (1959). Tony Curtis and Natalie Wood were in the movie "Sex And The Single Girl" (1964). Clue 4: The person who scored this movie has worked with the director on a number of movies. Henry Mancini worked on many of director Blake Edwards' films, including the Pink Panther series. Clue 5: Received an Academy Award, but not for best picture. "The Great Race" won an Academy Award for Best Sound Effects. Hamlet53, it's your turn. |

A lucky educated guess!

This further added to the supposition. Lemmon and Curtis were always such a winning combination. I am surprised that that 'lightning in a bottle' was not used more often. The date made sense, but the two other clues I did not even consider. As I said just an educated guess. Something I learned the full advantage of years ago when taking the SAT and GRE. ![]() So new film. I hope I manage to hit the sweet spot of difficulty with these clues.

“Shoot, a fella' could have a pretty good weekend in Dallas with all that stuff.” JFK was assassinated in Dallas before the film was released, and the line was dubbed to substitute “Las Vegas” for “Dallas.” Quote:
Brig. Gen. Jack Ripper tells Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake that he will only drink distilled water or rain water because he believes that water fluoridation is a communist conspiracy to poison American's “precious bodily fluids.” This was actor James Earl Jones' first film role, a minor part as one of the bomber crew.

Clues #2 and #4 were my jumping off point. And Dr. Strangelove is one of my favorite movies so the pieces just fell into place.
Onward Clue 1 - 1970's film Clue 2 - Police Drama Clue 3 - although this film is award winning, it was the director's next film that is argueably more famous (also award winning) Clue 4 - The film director also directed an Opera in the 00's (decade of 2000 - 2009) Clue 5 - Includes one of the most famous car chase scenes |

Nope, but good guess.
Clue 6 - The movies main character is a bigoted alcoholic Clue 7 - The movies main character shares a name with a cartoon character Clue 8 - The narcotics trade is involved Clue 9 - The car chase is actually a car - train chase Clue 10 - There is a nationality as part of the movies title |

If this is correct, and I am 99.99% sure it is, maybe it is what SneakySnake was going for and he should get credit? Last edited by Hamlet53; 07-13-2011 at 10:00 PM. |
