Great Mainly 1970s Filmways Quiz.
I have borrowed this image from Ves and I cannot let a great opportunity pass by .I have worked out 50% of the films and stars and will work on the others.Perhaps my previousr Quiz's were a little older in content for some members but come on a 1970s and some 1980s quiz should be right up everyones alley.

Niven is from Rough Cut...
Sorry been out all day today...give me a few minutes and I will be back with some nice close ups!
Thanks Ves whenever is convenient for you.I have worked out all the answers from the middle to top part of the poster but the woman under the running man across to an image of what looks like MM and down to the bottom of the poster closeups would be appreciated as a few there are giving me a few problems.
Sorry not Rough Cut. This image may present a problem as it is just an image of David Niven looking like dozens of other David Niven photos.I have worked out the answer but to say anymore will give it away. From one of his lesser known films.
Too right...bit older than in Rough Cut...
oki doki...here you go..
.
Thanks Ves for all your time and effort. You did more than I asked for and is very appreciated. One significant thing is that the person I thought was a woman under the running man image turns out to be a man. The period film images are a lot better but still a puzzle.
Sorry the film the image of David Niven is from is earlier than Rough Cut. He must have had some work done on his face,
Sorry not Robert Redford in The Candidate.
Gosh, earlier than Rough Cut...hmmm...
Monroe looks like she's wearing her number from Some Like It Hot...
See told you I was terrible at quizzes...only one I know is the bottom image, and that's because I own the poster...sheesh!
Not Some Like It Hot.
If you are referring to the action period images on the bottom please share as this is a real mt\ystery to me.My guess is from a foreign film possibly Italian of French. A look at the original poster would be great.
''What we've got here is failure to communicate". I'm sorry if I didn't possibly explain myself properly at the beginning of this thread. The thread is called '' Great Mainly 1970s Filmways Quiz'' and the daybill poster we are looking at has Filmways Presents on it. All the images on the daybill poster should have been copied from film material bearing the following or similar Filmways logo.
I have found all the images less four were taken from films distributed in Australia by Filmways. One of the four I am hoping Ves will post an image of and it will be Filmways as well.
This leaves only three images of three stars that present a real problem as answers I am receiving are probably correct but they are from Paramount and 20th Century Fox films not Fiilmways. Possibly the three images appeared in a documentary or two that Filmways released in Australia but to this point I have been unable to confirm this.I really don't know the answer to this mystery but I will continue to work on it.
In the meantime there are still four more Filmway released images there to solve.
Scene at the bottom is from the daybill for The Man In The Iron Mask:
Yes you are correct in stating where the image originated from but why is a Paramount released film image appearing on a Filmways poster? Another point if you can explain this
