Stonekeeper's Springtime Game #435 ***Kontroll (2003)***


So you guys like to play games? Here is an investigation game that can be time consuming but it's lots of fun. Basically, I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guys are going to guess, I will give a hint that CONNECTS your guess with the movie I have in mind.

Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve a love triangle.

- The winner can either start a new game or say "pass". In case of a pass, the OP gets to start another one.
- After 12 hints, the point goes to the OP and he/she gets to start another one.
- Movie must have at least 3500 votes. Otherwise, add a Bonus Hint.

1-The Plague of the Zombies (1966) same aspect ratio
2-Pan's Labyrinth (2006) it's not in English
3-Snatched (2017) rated R
4-Let the Right One In (2008) imdb rating in the 7's
5-The Ghost Galleon (1974) under 2 hrs
6-The Skin I Live In (2011) drama genre in common
7-Knife in the Water (1962) imdb rating above 7.5
8-Diabolique (1955) one word title
9-Y Tu Mama Tambien (2001) same decade
10-Paprika (2006) same imdb rating

LauraGrace has it all under Kontroll (2003)
A tale about a strange young man, Bulcsú, the fellow inspectors on his team, all without exception likable characters, a rival ticket inspection team and racing along the tracks - and a tale about love.

I watched Fresh, 1994. That was a rough one. I had to pause it at one point, and go get some fresh air, walk around a bit. Very good film.
I'll put Kontroll on my watch list.

reply

hmmm... I feel safe in saying that it wont remind you of anything else.

But some dont like that effect.

reply

i think i might like it cause my Dad was a conductor on the LIRR.
Sometimes, on the easy runs, I'd go to work with him when I was a kid.
They always had a special car they would close off to the public, and drink and play cards. That was long ago, they've cracked down on those kinds of goings on now.

reply

Cool.

reply

Humm, that one looks pretty good
