early 30's german but hardly ever seen till 2010s (found and restored).
fate is a gambler!

[niminy-piminy]

whoever will guess right can collect cash either 1/ from table or 2/ from chair.
but beware! all the cash comes from evil forest demon.

[niminy-piminy]

you might think, "With cash, I can afford a forest rendezvous (and thus spice up my Waldeinsamkeit)," but your pleasure won't last long.
remember: pact with the devil has its consequences!

not called exactly LOVE IS COLDER THAN DEATH but almost.

director of this film is more known as a pianist.
(making a film was his hobby.)

[MrCarmady]

bold move to go for a film with 3 ratings on letterboxd

[niminy-piminy]

oh, my first pick was solved almost immediately so i thought my second pick must be something rarer.
obviously, i am still not attuned to ideal picks for this game.

[niminy-piminy]

a film with 3 ratings on letterboxd

please, carry on the burden of this pastime.


whoever wants to watch the film, soon in Res.

oh, was it such a terrible burden? but thank you, you have at least got a few people interested in watching it

[niminy-piminy]

well, i must admit i rather enjoyed this kind of spamming with pics.
but i must also admit i am still clueless what movies to choose for this game.
whatever i thought might be suitable, when i checked on ltbxd it was viewed by twodeadmagpies, greennui, nrh, wba, etc., etc. so it was obvious once i will post a still from such a film, the riddle is immediately solved.

[niminy-piminy]

on KG they play "Guess the actors and actresses eyes" and i have always considered it an "extreme sport".
but once you, Sally, was able to guess the film right based on Clémenti's scalp (with absent eyes) i got the idea i must come up with something extremely extreme!

[MrCarmady]

I agree it's a tricky balance, and the movie looks great! I only figured out what it was because of your last clue about the composer so someone else can go if they've got something. If not, I'll put something up later this week.

cold Waldeinsamkeit in Res.

[sally]

oh it's my fault is it? am pretty sure that's the only rear head i'm ever going to go 'a-ha!' at. i'm usually rubbish at recognising even films i have seen! my strategy was always to try and find a film that was vaguely popular, and then post progressively more revealing screenshots until someone got it. at least that was the theory, but now it's just whatever film i've got laying around that i haven't used before...

but i LOVE the idea of actor/actresses eyes! can we do that?

[niminy-piminy]

but i LOVE the idea of actor/actresses eyes! can we do that?

well, based on your super-familiarity with Clémenti's scalp i somewhat overestimated the average clairvoyance of this forum.

i can start such a thread, tho i would like to include "scalp guessing" or "mustache guessing" too.
stay tuned!

this is what i found to the matter.

[Umbugbene]

I got #27 right off the bat. That's tough though. #18 looks more like Jane Fonda to me than #17.

[Curtis, baby]

Only got 27 and 29. And some of the others are among my fav actors!
