Last time we tried to resurrect the quiz it lasted all of one week. Part of the problem was that the blog's lengthy hiatus lost most of its old movie readership, so that the choice of a Charlie Chaplin film as the quiz reopener (even a classic like Modern Times) led to a total of two correct answers.

So this time, I've chosen a movie that even people who never watch Turner Classic Movies should get. (In fact, I expect to hear from the quiz champeen Wayne A. Palmer about it being too easy, but then, he gets them even when they're not in English.) You can hear the audio clue here.

No other hints this time, but if you've seen it, you should recognize it immediately. If you do know it, send me an email before late Sunday night, and next week the quiz will actually have a winners' circle again, and your name will be in it.
