    your right it is in benny and joon, but its not the movie,this time around my clues are a bit more off,
    i may have to give another hint towards my first clue,
    the movie i am looking for has that song above is just by association, not in the movie
  • thedjfish@comcast.netthedjfish@comcast.net Posts: 1,692 ✭✭✭
    clue #2: the group that sings that song also sang a song in the movie

    I have two other movies in mind, but I'm going to not guess. I might be green with envy if someone else wins, but that's the price I pay. I don't want to be the only one guessing here. But if everyone else is lost in a swamp, I might jump in again. I could just be dumb for not guessing, but I can only think of two movies with a song other than that one by those Scottish twins. But it would be even more dumb to get caught up in this sick, sick game.

    Actually I was hanging out with an ex and she guessed it, I called BS...then saw the swamp reference, so she was right, but what she doesn't know won't hurt me. ;)

    Okay, my turn. Clue #1 It's based on an ancient book.
  • ddubridgeddubridge Posts: 3,978 ✭✭✭
    Jungle book?
  • kaspera79kaspera79 Posts: 7,250 ✭✭✭
    The Ten Commandments ?
  • perkinkeperkinke Posts: 1,572 ✭✭✭
    Jungle Book is based on an ancient book? Didn't know that, which one?

    Oh, and nope and nope.
  • perkinkeperkinke Posts: 1,572 ✭✭✭
    Hint 2: a beloved animated character shares the name of the ancient author.

    Doh! I can think of a ton of movies based on the writings of this guy. I'm gonna go with O Brother, Where Art Thou? It's the Coen Brothers adaptation of the Odyssey, anyway. I've gotta figure I'm on the right track as far as author, at least.

    Great movie. I couldn't resist answering this one. I'll have to think about a trivia for a bit. I'm moving next week, so how about once I get settled in, I PM you the new address. We sign the lease on Saturday, but I'm not sure when utilities can go in our name. As soon as they switch over, we get the keys. If I can get it done today, I'll send you the address.

    Now I want a Donut (said in my best Homer voice but in classical Greek).

    Okay, here's clue #1...my high school marching band played music from the score to this movie twice, once while my sister was in the band and once while I was in the band.

    Not Star Wars.

    Clue #2: I had a college professor with a degree from an Ivy League School who wrote several papers and either a thesis or dissertation (don't remember which) on the composer of this score, but didn't know he'd written this score and thought I was crazy when I brought the music up in class (ear lab for music theory, when I used the music as an example of a certain interval).

    I know my clues are pretty vague, but I thought I'd get a couple of guesses at least...so clue #3: The composer of the score to this film was a major composer and director of classical music in America in the 20th century.
