How to play Movie Clues

Answer five multiple-choice film questions.

Play dailyPlay practice

Make your first move

Read the decade clue. Reveal another clue if you need one, then choose a title.

Each question starts with its release decade. Reveal the director, release year or title initial when needed. Choose from four titles. One answer per question; wrong answers earn zero. Clues are generated from the included 39-film facts edition, not plot text or screenshots.

A quick example

Director and release year can narrow four possible titles to one.

Common mistake

One answer per question. Wrong answers score zero; extra clues reduce the available points.

Strategy to try

  1. Start with the decade: eliminate titles released outside that period before revealing more.
  2. Use the director or year clue when the remaining choices are close. Extra clues reduce available points, but a correct informed answer can be better than a zero-point guess.
