Guess XY by his/her eyes/scalp/mustache/hands/feet/ears/nose/lips!

Post by Holdrüholoheuho »

By popular demand here we come with a brand old/new game.

Image
(FOR YOUR BEAUTIFUL EYES, Henri Storck, 1929)

Rules of the Game:
1/ choose either someone from the film cast, or someone from the film crew
2/ keep posting pictures that reveal only person's eyes/scalp/mustache/hands/feet/ears/nose/lips
3/ when the identity of the person (in question) is recognized the game is over

Playfully deceptive pictures are welcomed!

4/ = 1/
etc., etc., etc. ......................

here we go with one especially charming character.
no, it is not Madonna! (the singer)
she has anything to do with pop music (tho she sings well).
she is belladonna of cinema.

in "Rio das Mortes".
obviously, too easy.
so, please carry on not only the burden of "guess the movie" but also the burden of "guess eyes/scalp/mustache/hands/feet/ears/nose/lips".
i hope you won't feel overburdened.

it's not too easy! i was going to go with arielle dombasle

but i think guessing the film as well is too hard, can we just make it the actor? then we can post deceiving pics from all different types of movies :)

guessing the film is not compulsory.
one is supposed to guess right the person.
i just thought it is easier to pick a film and keep posting pics from the film.
usually one doesn't have at hand many films with some particular person.
and i thought it could widen the scope of this game.
thus we can guess Barbara Stanwyck several times (with all kinds of hairdos).
or Turhan Bey with or without the pencil mustache.
but if anyone has at hand more movies with the person i guess nobody will complain if stills from different films will appear in one round.
and deceptive pictures are more than welcome ofc. :)
if i will ever play Nicolas Cage i will post instead of his eyes the pictures of two snails or instead of his hand a picture of an octopus!

updated the rules.
omitted the mention of guessing the film.
changed "film" to plural "film(s).
added a notice about deceptive pictures being welcomed.

rules can be updated even in the future!

updated rules and title so even filmmakers (and not only actors/actresses) can become the subject of this game.

In countries with low gender equality, including the USA, females showed significantly better recognition of famous female faces compared to male participants, whereas this difference was abolished in high gender equality countries.
LOL, but not really helpful at the minute

i tried to enter into the search engine "actress silent era bow eyebrow" and the suggestion was Clara Bow.
but it is obviously not her. :(
i must substantially improve my guessing skills because i feel i might be very good at "the frustrate everyone part"!
