In 1994's "Speed" when madman Howard Payne takes a bus hostage, SWAT member Jack Traven (Keanu Reeves) teams with passenger Annie Wilkes (Sandra Bullock) to save the day.

Answer: George Clooney

Whilst you may, briefly, catch a glimpse of the rest of the crew as the debris hits the shuttle, the rest of this film is dominated by the presence of Bullock, as Dr. Ryan Stone, on her first shuttle mission, and Clooney, as the mission veteran Matt Kowalski. Beyond that, the voice of Ed Harris as Mission Control is heard as are five other voices.

From Quiz Sandra Bullock

Answer: Nurse

In "In Love and War" (1996) Sandra's Agnes nurses the wounded 18-year old Ernest Hemingway back to health after convincing his doctors not to amputate his leg. The movie itself is mostly about the romance that develops between the writer and his nurse, a relationship which eventually has no future. Even though the movie, directed by Richard Attenborough, took lots of liberties with the facts, it is actually based on a true story. Hemingway's experiences in Italy towards the end of World War 1 served as basis for some of his works, with Agnes von Kurowsky especially present in the character of Catherine Barkley in "A Farewell to Arms".

From Quiz The Movies of Sandra Bullock

Answer: Murder by Numbers

"Murder by Numbers" tells the story of two rich high school students who team up and execute elaborately perfect murders, just because they can, and of the two detectives who try to catch them. The film is very loosely based on a pair of real murderers. The movie also stars Ben Chaplin, Ryan Gosling, Michael Pitt, Agnes Bruckner and Chris Penn. The estimated budget was $50 million and the estimated gross takings were $31.8 million. This dramatic film was quite a departure for Bullock, as in it she portrays a tough single cop with a secret in her past that drives her in the present. Not a whiff of comedy.
