The clue for Number 61 makes me think it is some sort of WW1 movie -- (so does the menu, really), so "anti war movies" is my defense (and I am sticking to it  :laugh: ) for having no idea!!! How else could I have missed that much food in a movie?

Another clue for item #61

If it's any consolation, the characters in the movie also miss most of the food for a variety of reasons beginning with a misunderstanding about which night the guests have been invited for dinner.

A recap as the day ends...

Please don't assign numbers to your new movie foods...if a movie is solved before it gets put into a recap, I don't give it a number since it's out of play.

Also, we're getting some repeat movies. Try not to use "Cool Hand Luke", "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" and "Dirty Dancing" as they've all been used twice.

CONGRATULATIONS TO:

-Human Bean has solved #92 ("for a relaxing time, make it santori time") as the film "Lost in Translation".

-GordonCooks has correctly guessed that #91 ("the World's Greatest Sandwich") is from the film "Spanglish".

-I_call_the_duck has solved "It is written, "He who makes the best egg salad shall rule over heaven and earth" as the hilarious film "What's Up, Tiger Lily?".

-racheld has solved "Finally being old enough to drink coffee. Is good? Is good." as the film "I Remember Mama".

************

WAITING FOR CONFIRMATION:

-Racheld has guessed that #78 is "The Brass Bottle".

-waterdogs has guessed that #83 is "Enemy at the Gate" and thinks that #61 is some sort of WWI movie.

We also know:

#66 is not "Hairspray".

************

AS YET UNSOLVED AND STILL TAUNTING US:

61. The following items are on the menu in this movie:

melon with port, herring, snails ala mode Chablis, hare pate, grilled sardines, filet of sole, fried whiting, skate in brown butter, quenelles of pike, truit au bleu, vol au vent, three cups of tea, two with lemon, one with milk, three coffees, one with cognac, a glass of poisoned milk, three glasses of water, champagne, bread, lettuce, whiskey and soda, foie gras, ham, dry martinis, eggs, cheese, roast chicken, port ,omelet with truffles, guinea hen, soup, leg of lamb with beans, American canned beans, and in conclusion, leftover roast meat and a baguette for a late night snack.

CLUE: There's a long, long trail a-winding Into the land of my dreams

66. Pizza with "stinky junk, bits of sweaty sausage, a little tomato, nice, fresh spaghetti, an old cheese rind, lettuce that's good and rotten, one olive..."

CLUE: the original order was for a Neapolitan, no anchovies; and a Margarita with anchovies, and "can I have ham too ?"

73. "Can someone hand me my Evian"

78. eyebowl soup served in a metal bowl

CLUE: This is an old movie. It is actually a remake of an older movie and is the inspiration for the tv show "I Dreamed of Jeannie".

79. Extremely bloody piece of beef being roughly hewn in a very genteel restaurant

81. Waiter, there's a turd in my soup

82. Waiter, there's a fly (yes, really) in my soup

83. Try not to spill the soup, you Marxist bastard

84. "Why is there a watermelon there?" (no cheating by using Google!)

85. "they don't serve fried chicken and watermelon on a daily basis in my mess hall"

89. Corn on the cob cooked in a pot, on a hot plate, while in bed.

Ice cream eaten from individual pints.

Liver pate and cat food shown in the same frame.

hint: contrary to the films name, it is *not* about flowers.

93. An orange Big Gulp, a big Cadillac, and big hair

94. "Very clever dinner. Appetizing food fitting neatly into interesting round pie."

****

NOTE: If you post a movie, please check back to see if the guesses on your movie are correct or not so we can keep the "Still in Play" list accurate.

Also, consider posting more clues if your movie remains unsolved.

Another new movie food:

"It is written, "He who makes the best egg salad shall rule over heaven and earth."

edited to make the clue less obvious

I was just thinking about that one.

What's Up, Tiger Lily?

You got it! I always thought it was a very funny movie.

The full line from the movie is:

"It is written, 'He who makes the best egg salad shall rule over heaven and earth.'

Don't ask me why egg salad - I've got enough aggravation."

Yeah! I didn't even have to Google this one! :biggrin:

94. "Very clever dinner. Appetizing food fitting neatly into interesting round pie."

Totally wild-@ss guess: Sixteen Candles.

It has the feeling of one of those quasi-Chinese stereotypes that are in American comedies, but I can't quite place it.

You are correct! The quote was from the character Long Duck Dong, the foreign exchange student, tasting quiche for the first time.

Another clue for the movie would have been "Grandma opens a box of doughnuts and says 'Voila. Breakfast is ready.' "

Yes! The remake. Congrats!

My favorite part of the movie is when the housekeeper, Chessie, waves goodbye to the Dad, twins and fiancee and says "I would pay big money to see that woman climb a mountain!!"
