Until someone eventually finds Film 1 (see pictures, clues and giveaways, above), as this is getting a bit too long, I am starting Film Quiz 3 !

Edit 10/15/08: Film 1 (nobody'll find this I believe) is HALLELUJAH THE HILLS !

Judging by the truckload of replys my Film Quiz 3 has aroused, I conclude that you, dear Autopuzzlers, aren't such assiduous moviegoers. Nevermind, I won't lose hope. For the newcomers, here are the first 3 pictures, plus a new one as a bonus, of this Quiz.
Who will prove me wrong? This is a very famous film.

War of the Worlds?

Ray B. · « **Reply #28 on:** October 15, 2008, 04:34:54 PM »

Nope.
The actress was a big star a long, long time ago.

Was Robert Mitchum also in the movie?

Maybe these Bette Davis' eyes?

Yes he was, and if I say so you're going to answer...

Allemano · « **Reply #32 on:** October 16, 2008, 05:01:25 AM »

I rather stay quiet...

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #33 on:** October 16, 2008, 05:04:55 AM »

Is it Cape Fear?

They're not as I've figured out...

Yes! Too bad I can't give points for these.

And now for Movie Quiz N°4

Allemano · « **Reply #39 on:** October 16, 2008, 06:36:50 AM »

I've seen it! It's Jack Arnold's "The Incredible Shrinking Man" from 1957.

Ray B. · « **Reply #40 on:** October 16, 2008, 07:55:07 AM »

Hey, you're good. I didn't expect anyone to identify this with just this picture !

Allemano · « **Reply #41 on:** October 16, 2008, 07:59:05 AM »

I just remembered the scene as he navigated the boat into the mysterious cloud!

Ray B. · « **Reply #42 on:** October 16, 2008, 08:08:01 AM »

As for today, the count reads:
Otto Puzzell - 2 points (Plan 9 From Outer Space, The Night Of The Hunter)
Allemano - 1 point (The Incredible Shrinking Man)
No one - 1 point (Hallelujah the hills)

A quick Google-search for "infinitesimal and the infinite" did the trick for me. But that feels like cheating!

By the way - just because we don't know obscure movies from the Fifties, doesn't mean we're not 'assiduous moviegoers'...

Of course! But I was just teasing. This said, I'm glad to learn that you did google this one. It shows your interest.
I too see mostly recent films now. But those from my quiz are not "obscure" usually, just old. And often quite interesting, as you may find if you ever watch them. The Night of the Hunter, for instance, is a true masterpiece.
