    Default Game #425 - D-Day The Sixth of June

    Game version 1
    One picture from one movie:

    Rule 1:
    NO IMAGE HOSTING ON EXTERNAL SERVERS.
    Images for the games need to be ATTACHED to the post, and thus uploaded to our server.

    Rule 2:
    TWO GUESSES PER PERSON PER POSTED PICTURE!!! Those two guesses are not allowed to be in the same post, NOR in a consecutive post. I.e. you can post one guess, then have to wait for someone else to guess: your second guess is not allowed to be immediately following your first guess.

    Rule 3:
    The WINNER of the game can start a new game IN A NEW THREAD.
    NO ONE ELSE (unless yielded so by the winner).

    Rule 4:
    Once there's a winner, PLEASE post the correct name into the thread (spelled correctly, and capitalized correctly, and not in italics or bold face.)

    Rule 5:
    The correct title format is: "Game" / space / "#" / number.
    Example: " Game #12" (without the ")
    (no space between the # sign and the number!)

    Rule 6:
    The film selected should be one that has had an international, theatrical release.
    I.e. a made-for-TV movie only shown in the USA would hardly be a fair entry, as
    we have international players also.

    Rule 7:
    These complete rules (1 to 7) have to be copy & pasted into each new game's first post.


    It's a bit late for this one...

    Bedtime for bonzo here. But here's another frame, and a clue.

    Based on a book, with a similar, but not identical, title as the film.

    I'll be back in the morning.

    Not "Grrrrrrr".

    Not "The Guns of Navarone", either.

    The lead actor mentioned in Post#5, who participated in the event that is central to the film, also played a character in another film about the same event.

    D-Day the Sixth of June (1956)
    The Korova milkbar sold milk-plus, milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom, which is what we were drinking. This would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence.

    I didn't, you gave it up. All I did was feed your clues into IMDB. Well almost, I did have a hunch that the 'event' might be D-Day. So a bit of luck too.

    "A parachutist during World War II, Richard Todd actually took part in the invasion of Normandy on 6 June 1944. "

    So you typed "actors who participated in the event that the film they were in was all about." ??

    I really thought it was, despite the "Based on a book, with a similar, but not identical, title as the film." clue making it impossible.

    Well, whatever you entered, it must have been well-worded!

    Here are some frames that would have really helped to give it away!!

    I knocked "The G of N" on the head in Post#8, Mal.

    From IMDb: "This movie is based on the fictional 1955 romantic war novel, 'The Sixth of June' by Lionel Shapiro."
