Cool. Then here's the replacement question for #4:
4. In a controversial 70's film, a mathematician and his wife move to Britain in an effort to escape American violence. Unfortunately for them, Britain seems worse. Many viewers were in an uproar at quite a few sequences here, including a woman apparently enjoying being raped, and a terribly violent showdown where the passive mathematician must make a stand defending his home. Name the film. Also if some further hints are needed on questions that have been around a while, I think people should be able to request that. EDIT: I think Melanie has the record for fastest answer to a question. Geez... |

I think it was Katharine Hepburn. I know she went like 25 or 30 years or something between Oscars at one point, it's hard to imagine a longer streak. But I could be wrong. |

Katherine Hepburn has the second longest record. The woman who holds the record did it in two different categories. First as a leading actress and the second as a supporting actress thirty eight years later. |

UPDATED LIST: 1. Name the 60's French film, considered a masterpiece of the medium, where the central character was actually a donkey, and some believe a metaphor for Jesus Christ? 2. What famous film director is known to refer to his actors as "models"? 3. Name this film - 4. In the backseat of a car in a classic 1950's film, the younger brother of a character played by Rod Steiger talks about what he could have been. This speech became quite famous, and is repeated into a mirror by a character in an equally famous 1980's film. Name the original film, and the 80's film. 5. What classic Western had a "Yee Haa scene" that was talked about and imitated by characters in a later film, City Slickers? |

I think it's more dumb luck. I know a few things but not quite as much as you. I watch this movie every time it's on:
In the movie Stalag 17, there is a soldier who sings at the Christmas party. He was uncredited. Who was it? |

1. Au hasard Balthazar
2. Robert Bresson I admit that I had cheated about number one, but I thought it was unanswered long enough. Sorry. (Seems like an exceptional film, btw)

1. A title of which 2005 release is a phrase originally used by a renowned film critic?
2. In this classic, we never learn the names of most of the characters and the plot involves a simulation of an old man walking. Name the film.
