The Stranger?

The Stranger?

No but sort of close in a weird sort of way. Kind of.

Qwijybo · 2012-02-15T17:37:48.000Z

The Trial.

Rory_Stewart · 2012-02-16T04:44:20.000Z

Qwijybo:

The Trial.

Correct!

Directed by Orson Welles, it’s ok not amazing but sort of amazing sometimes. I think you can get better copies than mine nowadays too.

I just saw it a couple of months ago and I agree with your assessment. It has some amazing parts: the typical high quality mise en scène, in particular the workplace and trial scenes, and I really liked Perkins’ performance. The whole didn’t quite hold together, though, I suppose suffering from the incessant perfectionism of Welles. Specifically, the rampant dialogue overdubbing, despite how proud he may have been about it, stands out like a sore thumb.

Anyway, 20:20!

Hmmm. I’m gonna guess The Fugitive?

tomchick · 2012-02-16T19:09:53.000Z

Yay, in color and 'Merican! Not that I know what it is, though.

If that is Harrison Ford im going with Random Hearts

Qwijybo · 2012-02-16T20:42:05.000Z

Not The Fugitive and not Random Hearts.

Rory_Stewart · 2012-02-17T04:36:16.000Z

Road Warrior?

Rory Stewart:

Road Warrior?

I’m going to guess Mad Max, if it’s any of those movies. Way more cop cars in that one.

Upside Down Car?

Omniscia · 2012-02-17T05:34:17.000Z

Given that the letters on the door appear to be “OUNT,” it’s reasonable to presume the entire word is “COUNTY,” and who drives law enforcement vehicles with the word “COUNTY” on them? Sheriffs.

So there is a remote possibility that this has something to do with folk-hero truckers in the Deep South.

Smokey and the Bandit

Slumberland · 2012-02-17T06:13:45.000Z

The Blues Brothers

Qwijybo · 2012-02-17T07:45:18.000Z

Yup, it’s Upside Down Car! Er, no, none of the above.

40:40 might help establish location:

Slumberland · 2012-02-17T07:50:55.000Z

First Blood?

Rory_Stewart · 2012-02-17T08:05:38.000Z

Slumberland:

First Blood?

I’m pretty sure this is right if only because of the weird blurriness on the sides of the image.
