A Movie Scene Quiz

Fealola, either you are too good at this, or I'm being too easy on yer, the film was 32 years ago and was The French Connection.

I think we've all be guilty of describing scenes too generically -- I try to insert something that is unique to the film but it's hard not to give it away!

Well, you won't have any probems with me. I need all the clues I can get.
Good for Fealola. I saw the French Connection not too too long ago and that didn't help me.

There wasn't any skill involve. Just throwing in Cop movies from the 70s! I'll be back with a new one.

Oh, machine gun guessing, huh!

A young man applies make-up in front of the bathroom mirror, then puts on a black leather jacket over his bare chest. He checks himself out and he is happy, satisfied. He is interrupted by his mother, needing to use the bathroom.

Blast it anyway. I have no idea and can't even come up with any reasonable guesses. Now he could be a young man wanting to join a rock band or maybe a biker, or maybe a teenage werewolf. Help: movie buffs.

I guess another hint is in order:

Think music.

Also: (a real question which turns out to be a hint too)

Where have you been, Raggedy?

Velvet Goldmine?

Mac, you already guessed that!
