Fair enough - I guess I assumed everyone had seen it as it was an Oscar film. I think my problem with The Pianist is probably I have WWII-overdose, and I felt The Pianist added very little from what I've already seen or read (a vulgar formula would be Schlinder's List+The Diary of Anne Frank=The Pia...

I agree with NSpan. I did buy the authenticity of the film (mostly) without having to give a crap about the characters. Now, I'm not saying PA is a good film.

Gotta be A

Okay then 3 is The Omega Man, Charlton Heston

3 is Will smith in I Am Legend?

I'll also take a stab at 18 and say Tale of Two Sisters, no idea who the actress is

I just realised what 10 is (got thrown off because I'd hardly consider it a fitting film for Halloween, but anyway)- it's Jimmy Stewart in Hitchcock's Vertigo

Yeah Woody has taken a few steps back from the days in which he openly bashed the pretentious hypocritical pseudo-intellectual snob. Like that one scene in Anie Hall, where at a California party a guy is talking on the phone (a young Jeff Goldblum, I believe) and says "I've forgotten my mantra".
