Does anyone see a big green dinosaur in there anywhere? Maybe even just a foot?

Ah. I was thinking the swing + clock = Swing Time but the time (I mistyped and said "clock") would be a separate clue.

Perhaps not if that's just how they're generally positioned.

Clocks are shown at 10:10 in advertising, so the time has meaning. I would be thrilled with The Big Clock, and the clock pictured is kind of big.

The musical notes are just to signify the guy singing.

You just said they often pack multiple clues into the same area - there's no reason the musical notes in the tree couldn't be a separate clue entirely.

I don't know what they would be, but I don't think we can definitively rule them out either. If they were just for him singing, I would think they would be position differently and not conveniently in that tree branch or whatever.

So far..

Definites:

Klute
An Angel At My Table
Koker Trilogy
Bamboozled
War and Peace
Swing Time
One Sings, The Other Doesn't
Hedwig and the Angry Inch
Europa Europa

Strong possibility:

Diamonds of the Night

Maybe pile:

Children of Men
Funny Games
After Hours

Unknown clues:

"S" Balloon
Jesus holding "V"
Board Game?
The tree itself?

You're right. I'm just saying, it looks like the drawing of the musical notes are attributed to the guy's mouth being open, signifying him singing. I just think they happening to overlap with the tree, but it's possible it could be for the tree too.

Do the 19 stars signify anything other than establishing the scene is set at night?

That fits pretty well. I don't think I've heard of it personally.

The S balloon is probably for The Heiress (air-S).

Fingers crossed! That'd be an instant buy from me. More Agnieszka Holland on Blu-ray, please.

Are we sure the sled means Bamboozled? It looks like a bamboo sled, but could that be sugar canes? Sled + cane = CITIZEN KANE? I know it's a bit of a stretch.

sawdustandtinsel · 01-01-2019, 05:33 PM

Spike Lee box set coming? He Got Game(Jesus Shuttlesworth), Bamboozled, and maybe Clockers or 25th Hour.

If so, I hope it comes with a proper transfer of Do the Right Thing too

Anybody see any hope for Wildlife or The Death of Stalin in there anywhere? I know Criterion has a distribution deal with IFC, and neither of these are out on blu. Stalin is a dvd only release and Wildlife, which was released today on itunes, has no physical release. I cant make any sense of their drawings, but would be nice if these were on their slate.

Good point. Perhaps the coupon will work during the next flash sale.
