Answer: Dazed and Confused

I love the tagline for "Dazed and Confused" which was "It was the last day of school in 1976, A time they'd never forget, If only they could remember". The film showed many of the less honorable parts of high school like bullying, hazing, drinking, and smoking as well as the influence that music had on the graduating class.

11. Josh Kovaks (Ben Stiller) and Charlie Gibbs (Casey Affleck) enlist the help of a criminal named Slide (Eddie Murphy) in this 2011 comedy. What is the name of this film in which corrupt businessman Arthur Shaw (Alan Alda) is robbed out of money that he had robbed from other people through his Ponzi scheme?

Answer: Tower Heist

Interestingly, the development behind "Tower Heist" began in 2005 and originally the film's plot was to have the cast rob Trump International Hotel and Tower.

Answer: No Country for Old Men

Featuring top-notch acting by Josh Brolin as Llewelyn Moss, Javier Bardem as Anton Chigurh, and Tommy Lee Jones as Sheriff Ed Tom Bell, "No Country for Old Men" masterfully mixed the western genre with a fantastic story and action. Taking place in Texas in 1980, Moss takes a briefcase containing $2 million after he comes across a drug deal gone awry in which most of the culprits have killed each other. Tasked with locating Moss, Chigurh coldly kills anyone that gets in his way to retrieve the money.

Eventually Archer and Troy battle each other with Troy's character being killed and Archer's character having his face transplanted back to its former state.
14. Interestingly, this film was the first in the Eon Productions "James Bond" series that was not formerly a title of an Ian Fleming story. What was this 1989 film that starred Timothy Dalton on a personal vendetta against Franz Sanchez who had tortured his friend Felix Leiter?

Answer: License to Kill

"License to Kill" is widely considered one of the darker films in the "James Bond" series. In addition to torturing Leiter, Sanchez's henchmen also murder Leiter's wife. Bond is able to get revenge on Sanchez by destroying his drug smuggling base and causing his explosion that ends up killing him.
15. With music by Irving Berlin, this film featured the acting talents of Judy Garland, Fred Astaire and Peter Lawford. What was this movie that ends with two dance partners falling in love and getting engaged during a holiday?

Answer: Easter Parade

"Easter Parade" was released in 1948 and it is well-known for its songs including "Easter Parade", "Steppin' Out with My Baby", and "We're a Couple of Swells". Fred Astaire starred as dancer Don Hewes whose partner has left him to start a solo career.
