I have been perusing my new book (CLUCK: the history of chickens in the cinema) and it is fab.
It has given me a new idea for a brilliant pub game.
I type in an extract from one of the chicken related descriptions of classic films and you have to guess the film :thumbsup:
Points will be awarded for correct answers and there will be a great prize for the one with most points when I declare the game over.
Will post a sample entry shortly :thumbsup:
-
OK
Here is an example. Have a few guesses and I will reveal the true answer so you can see how it werks :thumbsup:
"A gang of terrorists is holed up in a house. A pick up truck pulls up outside and a small flock of chickens dash in front of it. Inside the house the terrorists are sitting around some half empty boxes of KFC.
Lumet uses the imagery to make explicit his central theme of packaging."
What is the film??
-
Obviously the no Google/IMDB/Bing etc rule applies

-

I fink Nick's mistook was to focus on so called Classics (films everyone wants to say they saw but . . .)
So I offer this one (most certainly down market):
This film finds the hero on a covert mission to rescue hostages in Iraq. He kills an entire platoon of Iraqi soldiers, but when he runs out of ammo, there’s only one solution: he picks up a chicken, nocks it on his bow, and fires it directly into the chest of an enemy soldier, where it sticks in head first and lays an egg.
(yes I did copy and paste most of that)
