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.

This is one of the better clues/drawings in recent memory.

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?!

This is about the fastest I've ever wanted to lock this thread. The answer is obviously Taipei Story

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.

Mike Leigh's Meantime

[knives]

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

[movielocke]

Dial 10-10-321 then one and the number!

[Ribs]

Ha, this is a great clue too.

[captveg]

Rin Tin Tin (Ring 10:10)

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

To Sleep wth Anger

To Sleep wth Anger

I would love if it is... Charles Burnett needs to be in the collection.

[Kauno]

Bad Timing

[DarkImbecile]

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.

[jazzo]

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

[solaris72]

Could it be Time Without Pity?

Point Break?!

Finally, Kathryn Bigelow makes her Criterion debut.

The Breaking Point

Has to be-- long rumored and actually a solid left-field acquisition from WB, unlike a lot of their choices lately
