Clue Game #49 - the more the merrier - Circle Theater Forum

Movie about a mistress who bore several children for a wealthy married man. Everyone knew about her including his wife. When he died she tried to attend his funeral, but they ran her away. Don't remember the rest.

Sorry I so often don't remember the names of films and actors. If you guys want me to stop doing this, I would understand.

Bestlawn, I don't know about the others but I'm OK with your method of guessing. In fact for my last guess I knew that Anthony Quinn was in the movie and I remembered some of the details but couldn't remember the title. I kind of cheated and searched IMDB for his films. Would those of you who have been playing a long time let us know if it's OK for us to do things this way?

If u want my opinion, I'd say no. It takes the title to win (but others could help u out with that).

As I said, Minnie, I only give 3 clues in total. However I always like to give people enough time after that last clue to guess before I give away the answer.

Don't worry, folks, this will be my last one. As I told CB, unlike the old days when the game was more challenging, no one has any fun guessing mine.

The answer is: 2003's "I'm Not Scared" (or "Io non ho paura" )

Oh, and Minnie I'm not surprised you haven't heard of the film although in no sense is it considered obscure. You're proving my point that I shouldn't give clues anymore. Ever since the whole garden web transition this site has a handful of true blue cineastes left but it's mostly now just filled with lots of casual movie watchers.
