But what about triple and quadruple clues? Gotta let the thread thread.

That's why it's getting sealed like a tomb by the end of today. ;)

And one of the most exciting. As far as I'm aware this great film has never been released on home video anywhere.

More exciting than a thrilling rescue like Being There?!

I didn't put together the literal pun of Tie-Pay Story until after I posted Greed. I just assumed someone was guessing Taipei Story because they've seen it and it's about an Expensive book, so I thought initially it was a guess from story context rather than a simple decode. I felt plenty stupid when I thought about for a minute.

In any event, I think it is clear the clue is actually for Midnight Cowboy.

It's even more exciting than the re-re-re-rerelease of The 400 Blows!

I was thinking along the lines of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. I'm happier for Taipei Story.

Someone's clearly fired if they haven't woken up that late.

Rin Tin Tin (Ring 10:10)

I'm usually terrible at these, though. I'm going with Meantime as being correct.

Saw this in a small enough image on my phone that I thought the lines were whiskers, so my brain immediately tried to justify Hour/Time of the Wolf.

MEANTIME seems correct, but I would love it if it, in some way, was AFTER HOURS.
