That's practice baby's trip down a stairwell, a lengthy pause in a sky banner message, a popcorn filled diaper concealing a dead bird, and whacking material.

/\ I like that poster so much better than the DVD cover.

That actually is the image on the cover of my DVD, but I got it at Big Lots and it has a Canadian rating on the back.


First in a series of movie characters holding signs that say "Wildcard," here's Norma Rae:

Norma Rae. I'm pretty sure that's right, so wildcard.

Safe to assume this was a little gag of some kind?

Mommie Dearest?

No. It's from an earlier decade.

However, like Mommie Dearest it features an Academy Award Best Actress winner in the cast.

This looks so familiar. The Mad Room?

The Mad Room isn't correct.

This distinctive shot may help you.I might as well throw a clue out ... the title of a movie from the 2000s included an indirect reference to our film, and its star-studded cast included one of our film's featured players.

One more before I go out to sit in traffic ...A clue to the movie's country of origin.

Boccaccio '70?

Wildcard if correct.

You are correct vasb.



I didn't know this before posting but director Mario Monicelli (Big Deal on Madonna Street, this movie's segment Renzo e Luciana), who was writing and directing films in the mid 1930s (and has continued to do so into the 2000s), is still around, born May 15th, 1915.

Edited to add: signore, felice compleanno!

Leading ladies:

I guess I'll retract my wildcard

throwing these out quickly because I may not be able to post anything until this evening

shots 1, 3, and 5 all feature the film's protagonist

the verification code (3rd letter of the first name of each of the top 6 actors listed on the film's IMDB page) is CCPMCC
