I'm both pretentious AND lowbrow! How do I do it?

Sep 15, 2005 17:55

Stoled from calamityjon and spinooti, among others, and presented with apologies to my gal ninafarina, who hates memes like I hates okra.

1. Pick 20 films you love/thoroughly enjoyed.
2. Find screen captures (stills) for each film. If you can't find a still, pick a new movie.
3. Post the pictures with the rules; let your readers guess from what movie each still is.

I've tried to mitigate the lameness of the fact that I'm posting a meme by making it essentially impossible to do. Enjoy! )

movies, memes

Quadruple DING!, and partial credit for #16 -- it's a John Wayne flick, but John Wayne wasn't in Shane.

OH! Fuck, I didn't mean Shane! I meant The Searchers. I know that movie at least had a similar shot because my photo teacher in high school showed it as an example of framing.

Also, that's totally Patrick Swayze in 2. Don't know what it is, but I'm telling you. Swayze.

Nope. Not Swayze. Pervert.

Nobody recognized "Night and the Hunter" yet? For shame!

Man, I only recognize Blade Runner and Blazing Saddles---though #11 looks super familiar.

Clearly, we are not meant to be e-chums.
