Right, good call on the running time.

It was just Argentina's submission to the Oscars, it didn't actually get nominated.

Tbh I always find the narrowing of lists and research method not fun or interesting at all.
Like for this I would rather narrow something like genre, but with only 3 questions left, the list method is more likely to get a win, so you can if you want.

I've been holding off on running/modding one of these for a while, partly due to the above. But today I thought that when I do, I'll say no research or Googling for it. And I won't make it super obscure to make up for that. I really think that it's more fun that way.
Thoughts?

In some respects I agree with you. But here (and with many of these), with no research it would be impossible. The list method seems a little robotic and less fun sometimes, but you have to narrow the possibilities economically somehow.

Could narrow by imdb user ratings too.

Would also play a no research one obv, but you just have to make sure that it is someone/something that everybody has heard of.

Sounds like a useful narrowing tool. You pick the cutoff.

Okay, so unless xander has been watching Spanish porn I think there are only 2 movies that it can really be - The Headless Woman or Tony Manero. But I might be missing something.
