Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. A man attempts to rob a bank to pay for an operation for his partner, but the situation becomes one of hostages and then deteriorates into a media circus. What 1975 movie is this?

Answer: Dog Day Afternoon

Starring Al Pacino and Charles Durning, this movie was based on a true story. In 1972, Sonny Wortzik attempted to rob a bank, with, eventually, approximately 250 police, the FBI, eight hostages and roughly 2,000 onlookers in attendance!

2. What is the name of this 1960 movie about an orphan boy who makes friends with a wounded dog? The dog finds a gun and the rest would give the game away!

Answer: A Dog's Best Friend

The dog, a German Shepherd, is named King and the gun is a murder weapon! Soon, both the boy and the dog are being pursued by the killer. Harry Dean Stanton appears in a somewhat minor role. He was, by the way, best man at Jack Nicholson's wedding to Sandra Knight (they divorced in 1968).

Answer: Dog Collared

The dog ends up following Porky everywhere. With the voice of the inimitable Mel Blanc, this is a seven minute classic!

Answer: Dog Soldiers

Starring Sean Pertwee, son of 'Dr Who', this is a scary British movie! The soldiers are on patrol in Scotland and they come across a group of man eating beasts that turn out to be werewolves!

5. This full-length animated movie about a dog called 'Dog', from 1986, is well-loved 'down-under', not because it's an Aussie flick though. What's its name?

Answer: White Dog

With Kristy McNichol in the starring role, this powerful movie deals comprehensively with the issue of prejudice.
