Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Gary Cooper won best actor as Will Kane, battling Frank Miller's gang singlehandedly in this 1952 classic western.

Answer: High Noon

This one is riveting from beginning to end. I think it's Gary Cooper's best role, and arguably the best guy movie ever. With Grace Kelly, too.

2. Paul Newman eats 50 eggs in this 1967 classic story of a born loser.

Answer: Cool Hand Luke

Another great movie about a guy who refuses to give in. And that car wash scene.

3. James Cagney shoved a grapefruit in Mae Clarke's face in this 1931 gangster classic.

Answer: The Public Enemy

He shot to stardom as Tom Powers in this violent story about social conditions. And Jean Harlowe, too.

4. Howard Hawkes directed John Wayne in this 1959 classic western with drunk Dean Martin, old coot Walter Brennan and kid Ricky Nelson, battling a gang of criminals.

Answer: Rio Bravo

In "El Dorado", Robert Mitchum played the drunk. "Rio Bravo" shows a young Angie Dickenson in her underwear (Of couse, that's a full outfit by today's standards).

5. In my opinion, John Wayne's best movie is this 1956 John Ford western in which The Duke chases down his niece who was kidnapped by Indians.

Answer: The Searchers

No girls, but a very mean John Wayne.

6. In this 1973 western, Clint Eastwood turns the small town of Lagos into 'Hell' in order to exact his vengance.

Answer: High Plains Drifter

Eastwood is at his meanest in this film.

7. This hilarious Paul Newman movie introduced us to the Hansen brothers, who recently made some beer commercials.

Answer: Slap Shot

This movie has too many funny scenes to count. The part with Hanrahan's wife is one of the best.

8. This 1987 Mel Gibson, Danny Glover buddy movie had 3 sequels.

Answer: Lethal Weapon

Any movie with a Three Stooges influence is a guy movie.

9. Kevin Costner battled Al "Scarface" Capone in this movie with Sean Connery.

Answer: The Untouchables

Robert De Niro played a great Al Capone in this great gangster movie.

10. This comedy featured Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon disguising themselves as women to avoid gangster Spats Columbo (George Raft).

Answer: Some Like It Hot

That description might not sound manly, but this movie has it all, hilarious jokes, menacing gangsters, and Marilyn Monroe.

11. Martin Scorsese and Robert DeNiro team up again to tell the story of gangster Henry Hill in which great movie?

Answer: Goodfellas

What can I say about this movie that you don't already know?

12. 1990's 'The Two Jakes' was the sequel to what 1974 Jack Nicholson classic?

Answer: Chinatown

13. Jack Nicholson played a super villain in what movie?

Answer: Batman

He's a big part of the reason that you know 'Batman' much better than those other three movies.

14. Humphrey Bogart played a prospector looking for gold in Mexico in this 1948 John Huston classic.

Answer: The Treasure Of The Sierra Madre

This is Bogart at his most vicious playing Fred C. Dobbs. His appearance in that Bugs Bunny cartoon with the penguin when he keeps hitting up Bugs for a handout was inspired by this role.

15. Robert Mitchum and Gregory Peck starred in this 1962 classic about a released convict seeking revenge on the lawyer who put him away.

Answer: Cape Fear

This one was remade with DeNiro in Mitchum's role.
