Star Wars Question 9
The Many Faces of Tom Hanks - Tom Hanks starred as Ray Peterson in this campy comedy/horror flick that also featured a "Goonie" and a "Star Wars" alumnus. What movie am I talking about?
The correct answer is 'The 'burbs'
"The 'Burbs", a 1989 film directed by Joe Dante, features Carrie Fisher as Tom Hanks' wife, Carol Peterson, and Corey Feldman as Hanks' next door neighbor Ricky Butler. The premise of the movie is based on Hanks' (along with Feldman and a few other neighbors) increasing suspicion concerning the behavior of the new family on the block. Not Hanks' best flim (in my opinion), but still a guilty pleasure of mine.
Star Wars Question 10
Citizen Kane (Part 2) - Another significant character introduced at this point is Kane's childhood friend Jedidiah Leland. Leland is portrayed by Joseph Cotten, who would go on to star in a number of films with Welles. Which of these was perhaps the most famous film, aside from 'Citizen Kane', in which the two were featured together?
The correct answer is 'The Third Man'
In 1949, Cotten and Welles were both featured in Carol Reed's classic film noir 'The Third Man', Cotten as Holly Martins and Welles as Harry Lime. Another of Welles' Mercury players, Cotten also starred with the former in films like 'The Magnificent Ambersons' and 'Journey into Fear'.
Cotten once proudly boasted, 'Orson Welles lists 'Citizen Kane' as his best film, Alfred Hitchcock opts for 'Shadow of a Doubt' and Sir Carol Reed chose 'The Third Man' - and I'm in all of them.'
