Stonekeeper's Summer Game: I recommend THIS Mystery Movie #590 - Ooh, Shiny! [StoneKeeper pays the rent in full on JOE'S APARTMENT]


I wonder, I wonder...

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.

Let's get it on!

Hint 1: Another Woman (1988) - Runtime under 100 minutes.
Hint 2: Selma (2014) - At least two Oscar nominees in the cast.
Hint 3: Out of the Past (1947) - USA/English
Hint 4: The Night of the Hunter (1955) - Plot keyword 'singing'.
Hint 5: Easy Rider (1969) - Same aspect ratio - 1.85:1.
Hint 6: Cry-Baby (1990) - Under 100,000 IMDB votes.
Hint 7: Charlotte's Web (1973) - Adapted from prior material.
Hint 8: Around the Bend (2004) - Director also has writing credit.
Hint 9: The Country Bears (2002) - Comedy genre.
Hint 10: The Hollywood Knights (1980) - An actor from this film's cast has appeared in the same movie as a cast member of this mystery film.
Hint 11: Look Who's Talking (1989) - Apostrophe in the title.
Hint 12: Frankenweenie (2012) - Sci-Fi genre as well.

Looks like Stoney Homey got me with Joe's Apartment (1996), a stupendously funny hybrid of icky 90s bug animation and Busby Berkeley / Fred Astaire musical conventions.

If this hint did not exist, it would be necessary to invent it.

By the way, that's a shame about your hint.

Trust me, Wilbur. People are very gullible. They'll believe anything they see in hints.

Oof. That's a pretty dang good pick there.
