Answer: Mandrake Falls

From Quiz Mr. Smith Goes to Washington

Answer: US Senate

Jefferson Smith is appointed to the Senate following the death of Senator Samuel Foley.

Two little boys watch Buster eagerly as he pulls the taffy.

From Quiz Questions on "My Bloody Valentine"

Answer: Chief Newby

The deputy tells the Chief someone left him a Valentine's gift on his desk. The Chief asks who left it there for him. The deputy does not know. The Chief fears it is yet another warning from Harry Warden, the killer. The Chief and the Mayor had opened a similar Valentine's box to find the first warning in it, along with a human heart. The Chief opens the box and finds just chocolates. He is relieved and opens the note. The notes is from Mabel and it says, "Be My Valentine". Chief Newby is upset by this because he had found Mabel dead earlier that day. The killer had placed her dead body in a dryer. Don Francks plays the role of Chief Jack Newby. According to Wikipedia, Don is born in 1932 in Toronto, Canada. In one interesting note, Don is an honorary member of The Cree Indian Tribe. His name in the tribe is Iron Buffalo. Don is also a jazz musician, he plays the drums. He did the voice for Skunk in "My Dad the Rock Star". Don does not have a great deal of screen time in "My Bloody Valentine", but in my opinion, it is still an important part. He is the one who discovers Harry Warden died 5 years ago. He is also the one who tells us that Axel sees Harry kill his dad.

From Quiz Do You Know "Mrs. Winterbourne"?

Answer: Ricki Lake

She plays Connie Doyle a "blue collar", 18-year-old, and very naive girl from New Jersey. Ricki Lake was in this movie before she had her own show on television. This movie was made, also, before she lost a lot of weight. Fortunately, this works since she is playing a girl who has just had a baby.

From Quiz Munich

Answer: Steven Spielberg

You may have heard of that Steven Spielberg guy, you know, the one who directed 'Jaws', 'E.T.', 'Raiders of the Lost Ark', 'The Color Purple', 'Jurassic Park', 'Schindler's List' and 'Saving Private Ryan'. 'Munich', in my opinion, compares favorably with the best of these films. Incidentally, though it did not win for any of them, 'Munich' was nominated for five Oscars.

From Quiz "Much Ado" at the Movies!

Answer: Both of these are correct.

Although the actors - Denzel Washington and Robert Sean Leonard - clearly sounded American, their performances were so good that, to me, their lack of accents did not detract from the rest of the movie. One more super actor, Keanu Reeves, definitely sounded "un-British," but again, was awesome in this film. Michael Keaton, an American, did use a lower-class sounding English accent for his role as the very odd Dogberry!

Answer: VP Ted Matthews

This secret meeting in the Oval Office was the main point of the movie. Someone had taken some money for allowing funding to a private venture.
