Since it's been four days and no wildcard takers, I'll take it. I think this might be an easy one, then again, let's find out:

I figured that would be an easy one.



So Trevor, it's your call, good sir!

Oh, wow! I actually recognized a movie, let alone a screenshot!

Give me a few minutes. Mine always end up being easy, maybe I'll make it slightly less so.

Brings to mind Nilsson's Northern Lights (1979), but this is probably an older film.

The only movie I can think of is Wuthering Heights (1939). However, I'm almost certain that it's not correct.

No, this film is a decade or two after that, and not American.

This film has appeared in a previous thread, and is on a lot of best of all-time lists iirc.

Dreyer's Ordet (1955)

The wildcard is up for grabs, but I might decide to post something myself. Whoever's first.

Since no one guessed the first one, here's the second and third shots:

Is anyone even still playing?

Next two shots (Note that they both feature the film's star):

It's cool. Although I hate to say it, these might be the easiest shots that I got to identify this movie.

Re: Guess That Movie By Screenshot: 'Round Midnight

Alright, we'll try a couple more images. Let's see how you do:





Here's a few hints:
The film's star was paid $12 million to star in the film

The film is based on a best-selling novel

Considering its budget, it was also one of the biggest disappointments of the year it was released.

An old-time actor campaigned hard to be in the film and eventually was hired to be a part of it, for a considerable fee I might add.

The film's original ending was reshot after test audiences hated it yet glimpses of it made it to the film's theatrical trailer.

***

If you can't get this film with all of these clues, then I guess I'll have to get more shots. I'm running out of the ones I currently got.

Man I was wondering when someone was going to get that one.





It's now on you, good sir, to make a decision.
