Game: guess from which war/historical movie is the picture?

[Waleed Y. Majeed]

Going a bit too far for nothing useful

Waleed

[Helmut0815]

Well, the scene with the british soldier who sacrified his life for that drop container full of useless red berets from "A bridge too far".

Although Waleed proves to also know the scene, Helmut wins by correctly giving the situation and the title.

' A bridge too far ' ( 1977 ), by Sir Richard Attenborough.


You can take the command now.......

The Pianist - Full Movie HD (E)


I found the 1-DVD version (143 minutes) a few years ago for just 1,- Euro, the 2-DVD extented version, plus documentaries, etc. (?) is so far not known to me. Is the 2-DVD version worth it, maybe someone can report briefly on it..?

Hi Herr RandJS,

Correct, Sterling Hayden as "Brigadegeneral Jack D. Ripper" in the 1964 movie "Dr. Seltsam oder: Wie ich lernte, die Bombe zu lieben".

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dr._Selts ... _zu_lieben

Sterling Hayden was always archaic, an exceptional actor, a character type, brilliant in many old gangster movies, the actor Hayden is a legend...

Your turn, please...

[Waleed Y. Majeed]

Hans, he did say “If correct, I pass my turn, just checking in on my lunch hour. Please someone else carry on with the quiz.” In other words the quiz is open for anyone to post the next movie.

Keep them coming...

I know how Jack D. Ripper feels, that Putin has been trying to sap and impurify my precious bodily fluids for at least twenty years.
