I watched Casablanca again recently. It’s obvious why it’s considered one of the definitive classics. It got me thinking what other really awesome one word films there are. Turns out, more than you might realise. How many did you get? Any others you like that aren’t on the list?

Yes! Alien! That’s what I was hoping to see. I haven’t seen se7en or memento in years and now have a real urge to watch them. “I’m chasing this guy…no he’s chasing me” 😂
“You know, I’ve had more rewarding friendships than this one. Although I do get to keep telling the same jokes.”
I managed 6
One of your better scores 🙂
🙂 It was one I could milk
9 out of 15
One of your highest scores.
And last 😜
12/15 missed metropolis, m and amelie. in my defense, ive only seen amelie of the 3 🙂
Solid score. The first two are incredible if you get the chance. I still can’t look at gnomes the same way after Amelie.
😉
14 out of 15, I missed “Amelie.”
So very close. Super impressive. Could you choose a favourite out of those 15?
Thank you.
Yes, Goodfellas.
I too got 14 out of 15.
High level stuff Vinnie. Which one stumped you? M?
No, funnily enough it was Argo. I’m kicking myself about that one.
There are so many other great one word titles. I might well do a second quiz on them. If I do, you may well get them all on it 🙂
We’ll just have to see how I fare.
13/15. Should’ve gotten 14, but I drew a blank on Amelie. That’s probably because I’m not as high on that one as everyone else. I haven’t seen Amadeus so that was my other miss.
You will love Amadeus! Astonishing movie.
12/15 🙂
Solid stuff. Which ones stumped you?
13/15 – I missed M and Amelie. I watched both, but quite a long time ago.
A very strong score. I’m curious how you’ll do in the second one.
Reblogged this on WILDsound Writing and Film Festival Review.
Thank you for the reblog 🙂

14/15. Couldn’t get M. Don’t even know it. Great post.
It’s a wonderful film. I hope you get the chance to see it.
