StoneKeeper's Guessing Game #1476 - Breakheart Pass (1975) IS THE MOVIE - MONSTAR WINS.


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.

For each guess, a connection is posted. Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, actor, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve Cabbage Patch Kids. Also, you can use Metascore color or rating, Rotten Tomatoes score, any award wins or nominations in common, same number of words in the title, plot keywords. Note: "Plot" in the IMDB advanced search links to "Plot Summary" on the film's page. "Keyword" in the advanced search links to "Plot Keyword" on the film's page.

Helpful search engine: https://www.imdb.com/search/title/ Click on Feature Film and TV Movie. Then modify for the hints as they are posted.

- 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 and 15 incorrect guesses, the point goes to the OP. He/she gets to start another one.
- Movie must have at least 3500 IMDB votes. Otherwise, add a bonus hint. No documentaries.
- Maximum 2 guesses per player per hint.
- Can't edit a guess once posted. Delete ONLY
- Post one Hint at a time.

YES YES YES YES.

That was tricky. Ben Johnson won the Oscar for The Last Picture Show, for which JEFF BRIDGES (Starman (1984)) was also nominated and first recognized. Charles Durning had 2 Oscar nominations. Ben Johnson was in a lot of westerns; didn't know he won an Oscar.

I don't think if I've seen this film, but it's been scheduled lately on the digital "retro channels" associated with locals for the US network affiliates.

Hi! When are you going to start the next round?

reply

I was helping someone move yesterday and got home very late. They are mostly moved, but I have a car full of boxes and bubble wrap for what is left. I doubt if they need me for anything more.

There should be 3 players for this game. The title you want to run has probably already been done: To see if your film title has been used in a previous game, do a Find search here: https://moviechat.org/general/General-Discussion/5ed7f020eadc5870c51c98ab/StoneKeepers-Game-list-of-movies

You can always save the title you want to run for a future week of "What You Watched this Week, (The Force is Strong With THIS one!)" Just back-date it.
