Criterion Newsletter: Clues and More, Volume Four

Those dolls do look like they've set their motherfuckers to receive some tea

[Brian C]

Good god, I didn't even notice the tea. Hmm ... there are three dolls, and the third result when I search for "tea" on IMDb is Team America: World Police! Finally, Kim Jong-il enters the Collection!

[FrauBlucher]

One of the dolls is mouthing the words, "oh pass um, please."

It's a release of Arrested Development the complete series. It's definitely a drawing of the scene where George Bluth has a tea party in the attic.

[FrauBlucher]

Looks more like a waiter

It seems like CC has doubled up on clues a bunch of times this year.

with the second film being The Servant?

Actually, what I meant was two clues for the same film. First clue in NYD Wacky drawing and then repeated in the Newsletter.

[captveg]

To this day I still can't get over the fact that when we finally got a legit double clue (Ride the Pink Horse and The Black Stallion) all of completely missed the Black Stallion part of the clue.

My Man Godfrey Blu Release.. Cant believe no one got this

[Finch]

^ Please let this be true. My all-time favourite comedy.

[FrauBlucher]

I guess no Newsletter?

[swo17]

What?

[jedgeco]

Turtle grill?

[Morgan Creek]

His Girl Friday.

[jindianajonz]

Is it a grill, or one of those old roll top desks?

[dda1996a]

Obviously a box set of the teenage mutant ninja turtles films. That vanilla ice phantom page wasn't for nothing

[comicfan1969]

Turtle grill?

I can't tell if thats a grill or a roll top desk.

[cdnchris]

It looks like a roll top desk, though his legs sticking out are making it confusing

[silveremulsion]

I think it's hinting at King Hu's Dragon Inn. Unless there's some Turtle in a Desk movie I don't know about.

[zedz]

What?

I don't know if that's supposed to be a dinosaur, a lizard or a turtle, but presumably that's a desk. The only vaguely connected thing I can think of is Turtle Diary, which is hardly worth bothering about.

[swo17]

His Girl Friday

Bingo. "Get back in there [the rolltop desk] you mock turtle."

[Feego]

Morgan Creek got it right. It's His Girl Friday. In the film, the condemned man hides in a desk just like that, and Cary Grant says, "Come out of there you Mock Turtle."

Edit: Swo beat me!

[domino harvey]

Nope.
Dino = Dean Martin
Roll (top desk)= of dice, as in gambling
Some Came Running 100% confirmed

[comicfan1969]

His Girl Friday

Bingo. "Get back in there [the rolltop desk] you mock turtle."

Oh yeah. I'd forgotten about that line, which played on the fact that Cary Grant played the Mock Turtle in Alice in Wonderland.

[zedz]

His Girl Friday

Bingo. "Get back in there [the rolltop desk] you mock turtle."

Well, that's a relief.

[McNulty]

What?

I don't know if that's supposed to be a dinosaur, a lizard or a turtle, but presumably that's a desk. The only vaguely connected thing I can think of is Turtle Diary, which is hardly worth bothering about.

Perhaps a possum that's both ill and sore?
