There’s an Oscar-related theme here. See if you can guess it. (Theme solved by George, comment #7.)

1 Spiderman
3. The Secretary
7 is Pulp Fiction. 4 sounds familiar, but I can’t place it.
Is 6 Last Holiday?
Tom, I never thought you’d pull out Last Holiday! Excellent.
# 4 Legends of the Fall?
Barbs, no. Although I haven’t seen Legends of the Fall, so maybe there’s a similar scene.
Is the theme that all the scenes in your clues feature actors/actresses who presented Oscars on Sunday? So far we have Dunst, Gyllenhal [sic], Latifah and Travolta…
4 = the Accused.
Is #5 A Perfect Murder?
George, fab guess on the theme, you’re right, but #5 isn’t A Perfect Murder.
I’m full of surprises. 😉 Actually, I haven’t seen it, but I did read reviews.
Would #4 be “GI Jane”?
Or perhaps “Frida” for #4?
#5 I keep thinking of Compromising Positions. No idea if that’s right.
Is #5 Brokeback Mountain?
Ah wish ah new how ta quit yew…
Based on current events, I was really hoping #4 was going to turn out to be Crossroads II.
Was it freaking Casino Royale?
We haven’t had our Bond answer yet, have we? It’s Eva Green and Daniel Craig in Casino Royale.
Roberta and George, I’m giving it to both of you, since you got stuck in moderation (for reasons that elude me) and your answers didn’t appear.
Fully clothed shower. Had no idea that wasn’t as big a gimme as Royale with Cheese.
It was actually the first thing I had thought of but then when none of your Bond people had gotten it, I figured I was remembering wrong.
It’s my favorite scene in the movie. The raw emotion blows my mind.
