Ten Favorite Films with names in the title
First names, last names, nicknames, animal and pet names are all okay.
I picked two from my list of ten favorite one-word film titles posted here in April, but I chose the rest based on creative variations of how names are used in film titles.
AKIRA (1988)
BAMBI (1942)
BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN (1935)
CASANOVA’S BIG NIGHT (1954)
DR. NO (1963)
JOHNNY HANDSOME (1989)
THE MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE (1962)
MR. SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON (1939)
OUR MAN FLINT (1966)
THE STRANGE LOVE OF MARTHA IVERS (1946)
