Okay, let's do one that's a bit older.

Here's one that's aged about three decades.

No, not Blazing Saddles, but the same decade.

Okay, here's another shot with a more well-known actor (at least more well known here in America).

Since the guy on the left there is Don Knotts, I think you've got it.

That's it. Personally, I really like Jim Dale, but he's not as recognized in America as Don Knotts. (He's actually done all of the audio book versions of all Harry Potter books. Of course I haven't listened to them, but I hear he's done a great job on them.)

(BTW Mattcrampy, should it not be "un gâteau"?)

My colleague reckons that's "The Shadow" and the character is Genghis Khan...

Apparently it's a terrible film.

You're quite right!

It *is* The Shadow.

And it is a terrible film. BUT it is not just terrible, it is in the magic region where it's terrible enough to be absolutely spectacular.

Plus the Shadow's evil laughter rocks.

Your turn.

The original picture uses 'une'. I'm more interested in making it easy for English speakers to translate than for making a grammatically correct joke in French.

I guess I just didn't understand it as I've no idea where it's quoted from. On that same note, I'd like to pass my go as films really are not my thing. I'd only pick something too obvious - I doubt I've watched more than 20 films in my life and most of them are well known.

If someone could take my turn, I'd be very grateful.

This might explain some.

Alrighty then:

clockwork, clockwise?

Clockwise. The only thing I remember about the movie is that John Cleese is a headmaster.

Gah... I'm currently recovering from a nasty cold and can't really think straight, much less think of a movie I could use...

So if someone else has an idea - go right ahead, please...

np: Bola - Phulcra (Kroungrine)

Unfortunately not. I guess I should have posted a second one as a clue!
