Stonekeeper's Fun Guessing Game: I Recommend THIS Movie #908 - Bring a Date [nyctc7 links it to THE DEFIANT ONES]


What could it be, what could it be? Each guess will bring you closer to see.

I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you 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 bearded guys named Steve.

- 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.
- Can't edit a guess once posted. Delete ONLY.

Let's get it on!

Hint 1: Sands of Iwo Jima (1949) - VFA runtime under 2 hours.
Hint 2: Gravity (2013) - This is an Oscar-winning film.
Hint 3: Babette's Feast (1987) - Drama.
Hint 4: Days of Heaven (1978) - USA/English.
Hint 5: The Bad and the Beautiful (1952) - Same decade.
Hint 6: Love Is a Many-Splendored Thing (1955) - At least one Oscar winner in the cast.
Hint 7: Somebody Up There Likes Me (1956) - IMDB rating is swimming in sevens.

The Defiant Ones (1958), a thoroughly entertaining two-hander with Tony Curtis and Sidney Poitier, covers a lot of ground in just over 90 minutes. Take a look and see for yourself. Congrats to nyctc7 for identifying this classic gem!
