Thanks to the irrepresible Agrajag for a very good quiz. Here's what he predicted:

As I write this, I have no idea how easy/hard my quiz turned out to be, but if I had to guess at the rankings, I'd guess:
1 point: Down With Love -- A recent film with a vaguely recognizable Ewan McGregor getting some split-screen action from Renee Zellweger. Anyone who's seen the film should easily remember the hilarious positions these two got into...
2 points: Rio Bravo -- Yes, that is Dean Martin's profile as he and Walter Brennan stare at a pair of tights just thrown out the window above by John Wayne's Chance in this classic Western.
3 points: Caché -- Not sure how many have seen Michael Haneke's latest film (before the Funny Games US remake), but for those who have, I doubt you'd be able to forget these omninous postcards.
4 points: Basquiat -- I don't know how recognizable David Bowie is here as Andy Warhol, nor is "Flowers" one of his better-known paintings, but I used this simply to get people to hear of it. I still remember years ago, Dan using a shot from a movie I had never heard of, Happy Accidents. After looking at the IMDb page after the quiz, I decided to rent it and loved it. I hope someone has a similar experience with Julian Schnabel's first film with the amazing Jeffrey Wright.

Well, thanks for playing... Maybe next year I'll be able to earn hosting duties with a #1 finish...
