    #2 is Do The Right Thing. (The 1955 movie is Night of the Hunter, but I don’t know the 1975 movie.)

    #4 is Dog Day Afternoon

    #7 is Dark Victory (where George Brent gets Bette Davis.)

  2. deblipp says:

    Mel, we know you’re good. (The 1975 movie is The Rocky Horror Picture Show).

  3. Roberta says:

    #5 is Dune! Yay me; never read it, never saw it! (Sting be the rock star.)

  4. deblipp says:

    Wow, pretty good for never read it, never saw it.

  5. maurinsky says:

    Damn, I was just going to post Dune, which was the only one I knew.

    As for the rest: duhhhhhh, dunno?

  6. deblipp says:

    Wow, maurinsky, if I hadn’t seen Roberta’s answer so fast, you’d have gotten credit. 3 minutes is pretty close. Sorry.

  7. Roberta says:

    Well I TOTALLY knew Dog Day Afternoon, but got here too late for it.

  8. deblipp says:

    Okay, I’m just saying: 3 minutes.

  9. Well, that didn’t work. I meant to say #6 is Dead Man Walking.

  10. Ken says:

    #1 is Dante’s Peak – and your Bond connection is Pierce Brosnan

  11. deblipp says:

    Ken, that’s funny. I announced in December I wasn’t doing the Bond connection anymore, and yet, there it is.

  12. OhKen says:

    I remember you saying that…. but I had literally just finished watching Seraphim Falls when I clicked into your site, so Pierce was on my mind.
