Film Quiz: Anne Hathaway

I haven’t done a film quiz focused on one star since Bruce Willis six months ago, so it’s time for another. Anne Hathaway is an acclaimed and multi-award winning actress, including an Academy Award, in a varied career that encompasses comedy, drama, action and adventure. As her films all cover this century, I’ll stay away from the added clues. How many can you work out?

Film Quizzes: Jake Gyllenhaal

After such a long gap before my recent William Shakespeare quiz, I thought I’d better not leave long before my next one. And I wanted to do an actor who I’ve long respected and admired. I remember Jake Gyllenhaal well from when I first saw him, in the first film in this quiz. I could neither spell or pronounce his surname, but remember thinking just what a future this guy had. I’ve been delighted to see how far along he has come. Do you have a favourite role of his? How did you do this time around?
