How to play Movie Clues

Answer five multiple-choice film questions.

Rules for the Solve Meadow edition. Examples are constructed lessons, not today's answers. How these guides are made.

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.
