Answer: Robin Hood

This 1922 film has the full title of "Douglas Fairbanks in Robin Hood". It cost significant money to make at the time, at over a million dollars. The film follows a now well-known story of Robin, who joins a band of outlaws that fight oppression by robbing from the rich and giving to the poor.

Answer: The Raven

3. Which classic film has a large number of scenes set in a place called Rick's Café Américain?

Answer: Casablanca

"Casablanca" is considered by many film critics to be one of the greatest films of all time. Set in late 1941, it blended a story of war, drama and romance with a now iconic cast of Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman. The film's theme song, "As Time Goes By", forms an integral part of the plot as it is the song the two main characters associate with their original romance in Paris.
4. Which horror film, originally released in 3-D, involves a monster called Gill-man that emerged from a body of water?

Answer: Creature from the Black Lagoon

"Creature from the Black Lagoon" was released in 1954. It follows the expedition of a group of scientists who are looking for a prehistoric creature after evidence is found in the Amazon. Enter Gill-man, a dangerous creature with gills and webbed feet who threatens the crew, killing several before being captured.
5. Which 1963 film is based around a large diamond?

Answer: The Pink Panther

The film starts with a princess receiving the world's biggest diamond as a gift.

The film is famous for its theme song, a simple but catchy piano tune.
6. Which film begins when a girl called Regan starts displaying strange behaviour, including speaking in tongues?

Answer: The Exorcist

"The Exorcist" is a 1973 classic horror film adapted from a book of the same name. Linda Blair plays Regan, a teenage girl who is possessed by a demon. As a last desperate measure, her mother hires a priest to exorcise the demon, which turns out to be a very difficult task.
7. Name the 1976 movie featuring Robert De Niro, set in New York just after the Vietnam war.

Answer: Taxi Driver

"Taxi Driver" follows the story of Travis Bickle, an ex-US Marine struggling with depression and insomnia. He takes a job as a taxi driver to try and get over some of his issues, where he meets some interesting people, although it doesn't appear to improve his life as hoped.
8. A 1984 comedy about a group of college misfits is titled "Revenge of the Geeks".

Answer: False

The correct title is "Revenge of the Nerds". It tells the light-hearted story of two, persecuted, computer science students, Lewis and Gilbert, who attempt to join the cool Alpha Beta fraternity. As the title foretells, they are ultimately successful, and celebrate with a memorable rendition of Queen's "We are the Champions".
9. Which movie uses a floating feather as a repeated theme, along with a saying comparing life to a certain sweet indulgence?

Answer: Forrest Gump

"Forrest Gump" begins with a man dressed in a suit waiting for a bus, beginning to tell his life story. Throughout the start and finish of the movie, a feather floats above him, representing the various parts of his eventful life. As people come and go we hear about his childhood where he struggled with bullies and leg braces, his teenage years and love of his best friend Jenny, and his incredible adulthood where he met several notable people.

The saying he often uses through out the movie is "life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get".
10. Which fairy tale adaptation, released in 1998, stars Drew Barrymore in the main role?

Answer: Ever After
