Darn, triple wrong, talk about a trick question But doesn't Depardieu get killed by Nazis at the end of 1900 (granted, not decapitated). Still, confusing as hell

I aim to confuse.

From my *very* hasty research after you posted your answer, it looked as Depardieu character isn't killed in 1900. Obviously, not having seen it, I can't say with certainty.

Damnit what is wrong with my memory! I distinctly remember him getting killed, though that must be another film entirely (not Danton, I haven't seen that one) -

AFGNAACP Red River was correct, LOL. Good guess. So now you need to replace #5. Ha ha.

I'm lacking inspiration, so I'm going to steal jjacob's question that had to be withdrawn beacuse of the procedural issues. (I don't know the answer, so he must keep track of that one)


THE LIST:

1. Lucien's duty...

2. What poet appears in an incredibly long movie reciting all 4000+ pages of one of his poems?

3. Which famous director also worked as an actor, before losing an eye when a jackrabbit leapt through the windscreen of his car?

4. Which really famous singer got a small part as a CIA agent in a strange (but famous) American movie?

5. Which actor who starred in a succesful 1970s TV series recently returned to the screen in a role which won him his fourth Golden Globe nomination?

3. Raoul Walsh

5. Can't believe I hadn't thought of it before....David Carradine. The movie is Kill Bill vol 2 and the show is Kung Fu.

To avoid confusion I'll wait for confirmation before posting a new question.

Ok fine, i guess it's time for me to join in on this again, instead of just keeping things in order. Straw Dogs. I'll wait for confirmation because I'm not 100% certain. She called Straw Dogs the first American fascist work of art or something. Maybe another film was just, "the first American fascist film."

Damnit! It was my instinct to say that, but I couldn't specifically remember there being a yeeha scene. Guess that's what I get for watching all my westerns at 4:00am...

And, yeah, Spiwak, Raoul Walsh was the correct answer.

The Illuminati I think. On Eyes Wide Shut. I'll await confirmation on this one.
