A Movie Scene Quiz

I shouldn't complain because I don't have to go out in it, but, it would be nice to be able to get some grocery shopping done. I think we had about 6 inches last night. I don't listen to the weather report anymore. Too depressing!

Sorry for the delay -- the boss decided to work from home today so he didn't have to drive in the snow, which means it falls to me to deal with all the problems he'd normally handle if he were here, and several of them just came up. Anyway, I think things are under control (for the moment), so on with the game! (This one will be a piece of cake for you, I'm sure.)

Oldie

While riding a horse over some jumps on an infield, the rider experiences an attack of double vision which causes her to see two jumps where there's really only one. As a result, she steers the horse to the wrong jump, and is thrown to the ground.

Gosh that sounds familiar. The working situation, I mean.

Oh, would the movie be Dark Victory?

I knew you'd get it right away -- Dark Victory it is!

Oldie

After her cousin rejects him, she comforts him and,of course, they fall in love. He takes off to fight in the Civil War, but promises to marry her when he returns.

Thinking...

dare I say... Gone With the Wind?

My first thought as well but, who's the cousin??

Cant remember but was it: Scarlett and Melenie? -- Scarlett rejects Ashley for Rhett, then he marries nice Melanie...

Or did Ashley actually reject scarlett... Yeah, she was hot for him, but not the other way around. hmmm.

Can;t remember, it's been awhile.

Were Scarlett and Melanie cousins?

Jezabel?

Ashley and Melanie were cousins.

I knew there were cousins in there some where!

Not Jezebel or Gone With the Wind. You are in the right time frame though, but it never shows any Civil War scenes. And one of you has the correct tie-in. But, I think this film might be just a little too OLD for you gals and even for me when it was "made".
(Yep, Ashley and Melanie were cousins.)

Seems like I just saw this movie...

If you watch TCM, Turner Movie Classics, you probably did see it, EOE. I know I saw it last week.

TCM is having acadamy awards movies back to back over the next few weeks!


For a clue:

Birth of a Nation
Uncle Toms Cabin...

(I know, I know, it's for a clue... )

I know that's where I saw it. About a month ago. Just can't see the female lead.

Raintree County?

Oh, I know, Fealola. I can't wait for those Oscar movies.

Nope, none of the above. And I did give you a clue above:

"I think this film might be just a little too OLD for you gals and even for me when it was "made". "

But, here's another one:

He gets killed at Vicksburg. She's pregnant. So, she goes to Arizona to have her baby without arousing gossip.

Yikes!
