Here are the answers to the two movies from Monday, 3rd March, 2008:

Answer to movie number one:

The first movie for Monday was from 1991 and tells of a home for wayward and orphaned children. The child who is credited with having the worst attitude in the home clashes with the grim and heavy-handed headmaster, who exposes a regimen of hard labour and calisthenics. A hip music teacher ahead of his time arrives and he indoctrinates the boys in the forbidden pleasures of a largely forbidden type of music. He is also making time with the owner of a dance club on the wrong side of the tracks. She just happens to be the ex-flame of the town’s sheriff.

This movie was "Shout", directed by Jeffrey Hornaday and starring John Travolta, Heather Graham and Linda Fiorentino. The script was written by Joe Grayton.

Answer to movie number two:

The second movie for Monday was from 1950 and tells the continuing story of a middle-class woman from Europe. In the pallid capital city of her homeland, on a very special day for the military, she finds herself caught up in the exuberant melee following the wonderful news that heralds the end of the war. She has just come from a visit to her doctor and, realising that she doesn’t have a long time left to live, she bravely decides to keep the news from her family so that they may enjoy the end of the war and their final days together, as normally as possible, without the family realising they are their final days together.

This movie was "The Miniver Story" - the continuance of the original story of Mrs. Miniver. The movie was directed by H. C. Potter and starred Greer Garson, Walter Pidgeon and Peter Finch. The script was written by Ronald Millar and George Froeschel.

The first movie for today is from 1965 and tells of an amnesiac who is trying to learn why he is the target of assassins. Living in the eastern United States, he discovers one day that he cannot remember any part of his past life. Returning to his apartment from a big office building that was suddenly without lights and where a prominent man plunged to his death, he is confronted by a stranger carrying a weapon. The stranger informs him he is being taken to a man he has never heard of. Knocking the stranger out, he goes to the police for protection - only to find he is a thoroughly confused man.

The second movie for today is from 2004 and tells of a doomed doctor who once again animates the sad creature he created years before. Meanwhile, angry villagers storm his residence but now his secret financial backer lurks in the shadows. Elsewhere, in Europe, a mysterious figure confronts another doctor in a cathedral. His nemesis is a 19th Century person who answers to a cabal located deep within a Holy place in another part of the continent. Armed with a licence to kill fiends, madmen and certain others, the nemesis has no memory of his past and faces an uncertain future as belief in what he does wanes with time. As the next century approaches, his crusade now looks like a murder spree. The answers will be in Monday's edition. Good luck.
