Poem improvised by prospective husband-material at family dinner that begins with a pile of thick strands of pasta sauced with wild fennel:

"Snails to eat

And woman sweet--

An incredible treat!"

Or something to that effect.

101 Dalmations and Fatal Attraction. Glenn Close plays her psychos with such panache, eh? My favorite is her Marquise De Merteuil from Dangerous Liaisons.

A recap to remove solved puzzles:

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

Also, we're getting some repeat movies. Try not to use "Pretty Woman", "The Godfather", "Cool Hand Luke", "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom", "Fargo", "Moonstruck", "Repo Man", "Mrs. Doubtfire", "Fried Green Tomatoes" and "Dirty Dancing" as they've all been used twice.

CONGRATULATIONS TO:

-petite tête de chou for correctly guessing that #186 (Our villain gets sprayed with eggs, milk, showered with sugar and dumped with flour and eventually gets baked in a big cake) is the filn "101 Dalmatians".

-dsquare for solving #187 (Our heroes try to get watermelons from a group of crazy ninja-karate birdbrains. Nobody gets the watermelons in the end) as the animated film "Ice Age".

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

WAITING FOR CONFIRMATION:

-petite tête de chou has guessed that #174 (Raw corn, bananas, scenery

CLUE: The actor won't eat the banana, but does chew the scenery) could be "WarGames".

#154 is not "The Notebook" nor is it "Jamon, Jamon"

#174 is not "1492 - Conquest of Paradise"

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

STILL UNSOLVED AND TAUNTING US:

154. REVISED CLUE: A floor picnic of roast chicken, rudely interrupted by monetary concerns and time constraints.

CLUE: Every meal in the movie was disrupted by SOMETHING, but no other by money.

CLUE: The hero speaks to an older woman, and her comeback was quite memorable.

CLUE: The lady came to the hero's place of work in order to watch him. No food was visible at the moment, though the aura of ham was present.

158. "I love their eggrolls" " Eat your eggs" and four perfect T-bone steaks

173. Jack Nicholson film: features a lot of barbequeing (as I recall)

174. Raw corn, bananas, scenery

CLUE: The actor won't eat the banana, but does chew the scenery.

177. I hid behind the car. I didn't want to get any ketchup on my dress.

CLUE: I've been carrying around this ketchup bottle for weeks!... WEEKS!!!

184. sushi, including 'masago' and 'amachi'

CLUE: in a separate scene, Noodles eaten from a paper carton (on a park bench)

188. Poem improvised by prospective husband-material at family dinner that begins with a pile of thick strands of pasta sauced with wild fennel:

"Snails to eat

And woman sweet--

An incredible treat!"

Or something to that effect.

New Clue in honor of watching an old favorite---I rewound four times, so I hope I heard it right:

A Mexicali Chili Barb

A Double Chubby Chuck

Two Orders of French Fries

Two Cherry Cokes

Deserted before the order arrives, to go look for liquor.

American Graffiti! What a perfect, all-American film to watch over the Memorial Day weekend. LOVE it. Paired with The Last Picture Show it would make a great a double bill.

Yep.

You wanna knuckle sandwich?

I see that a lot of the clues are just drifting, drifting out there in space.

If no one gets #154 by Thursday, June 27, I will reveal the name of the movie and explain the clues.
