Crime....8/10. I saw most of these by renting videos or watching them with my grandmother as a teenager. I love the classic movies, especially the old black and white films.

Number nine was pretty easy, considering you can read the word Compulsion on the book cover in the poster...

I got 7 out of 10 right 👍! There's a picture of Kolchak, the Night Stalker above my results, Darren McGavin 😄. This was a good quiz 🙂👍! I watch a lot of film noir movies so I was able to puzzle out the titles.

The poster with Robert Mitchum on it is for one of my favorite movies featuring him in it. Also, one of these posters actually has the answer to the question on it. MeTV should've Photoshopped it off before putting it up. Fun quiz, MeTV 🙂👍!

Welcome to Movie Quiz Night.

It is hard to describe the brilliance of this movie. I think X Movie is X director best film and is a textbook example of a great director at the peak of his talents. The film crackles with raw energy and enthusiasm, the film is superbly directed and the final sequence is nothing short of stunning. The script is also excellent with memorable quotes, the story is never less than compelling and the pop and rock soundtrack is winning. The cinematography and detail is immaculate, and the ensemble cast is one of film's finest. X actor won an Oscar for his performance, and as good as he was, he is perfectly matched by other actors in the film. All in all, it is a brilliant film and an instant classic no matter what time, day, week or year. Easily hits most everyone's top 100 if not 25. Once watched you will never forget the quotes, scenes and actors in this hit blockbuster. One actor has 2 Oscars and another for this movie. I found this just a week ago to my surprise. It will keep you on the edge of your seat to say the least.

You know what they say? Give one give all--



What we have here is 120 episodes of The Fugitive-

The Fugitive (1963-1967) I believe they are all Black and White except the last season.
Rating as an average 8.2 and the last two episodes 9.1 and 9.2.
Creator
Roy Huggins
Stars
David Janssen---William Conrad---Barry Morse---
Bill Raisch(The One Armed Man- 12 episodes--
+ 100"s more through out the episodes.
I am only giving the stars for the 1st episode below
Fear in a Desert City- S1 E1- All are around 51 minutes including Double Episodes-
Stars
David Janssen---Vera Miles---Brian Keith---Harry Townes-
Barry Morse---Paul Birch---
There are a couple of ways to watch this at the site. You can click on the running list above on what episode or to the right on H.264 Files . There should be 120 files. You should be able to double the size of the Screen by clicking the expand icon. The first part of the episode should be just a tad grainy then goes into a better resolution. Once you get used to watching it you won't want to stop after about the 5th episode. It just gets better and mega stars playing in different episodes. Any questions just ask. Also on the first link below is a summary of each episode.
