I never said anything about obligation.  If a category is going to be included, I'd prefer my voice to be part of the outcome.

Throne of Blood - A Moving Forest (got a screenshot?)

I can get you one, but it's the movement of the trees through the fog that makes this one great.

Is this the shot you're referring to?:

That's it.

Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?

Best Line - "If talent had anything to do with success, then Brooks Brothers would go out of business. Movie studios would be turned into supermarkets."
and
"We're warming up a top rewrite team to rewrite the last top rewrite team."

Best Scene - The Commercial Break. ("Ladies and gentlemen, this break in our motion picture is made out of respect for the TV fans in our audience, who are accustomed to constant interruptions in their programs for messages from sponsors. We want all you TV fans to feel at home, and not forget the thrill you get, watching television on your big, 21-inch screens.")

That's it.

Cool.  Part of me was wondering if you were talking about the later shots with the men and horses visible.



(got a screenshot?)

If anyone would like vid clips instead of screenshots let me know via PM.  I'll gladly get the clips for you and post them up.  Or you can do them your own with free software:

For some shots, I think a clip would be better than a screenshot; while a screenshot can say a lot for certain shots.

Sweet Smell of Success - "Mr. Falco, let it be said at once, is a man of 40 faces, not one - none too pretty, and all deceptive. You see that grin? That's the, eh, that's the Charming Street Urchin face. It's part of his helpless act: he throws himself upon your mercy. He's got a half-dozen faces for the ladies. But the one I like, the really cute one, is the quick, dependable chap. Nothing he won't do for you in a pinch - so he says. Mr. Falco, whom I did not invite to sit at this table tonight, is a hungry press agent, and fully up to all the tricks of his very slimy trade. "

Interested in how that line is delivered since it's the kind of sentiment that usually works better when implied rather than directly stated.
