What's the Movie?

[Shocker]

I was googling Earth vs flying saucers, and found a picture with a very prominent spherical tank. so let's try that movie.

Sorry, not that one. One year out, if that helps at all.

I recognize Baron Zemo in the background of the first picture.

 

Not anyone else.

Not Baron Zemo, but the man in the background is the key clue. If you can identify him you'll have it.

 

[Shocker]

I'll leave this for somebody else then, or wait with baited breath for another picture.

I don't consider googling for pictures of a specific movie as cheating, I still need to know that movies name by myself though, just to check if the style and picture quality matches the clue

You're right.

Zola

[Lord Foul]

Ah, sorry, I thought you were talking about my picture.

Anyway, here's a blow up of the man in the background. Loses quite a lot of detail but might just be enough...

As I'm new to this game, and unsure of the rules, I'll be kind and give you an easier picture from the same movie.

Post a picture from a movie that you think we might guess.

 

That's it.

My personal shtick is to post another picture every 24 hours or after a couple people have guessed. If I check in.

But it is sort of ... Pick a movie people might have seen or is famous. Over on the old site we had someone post an image from a movie shown only on YouTube that was behind a paywall. I'm sort of old, I try to keep the 50s and 60s movies to the more famous or infamous ones.

Thanks for that. I think this one should be famous enough, but in any case if you can identify the two men I'm fairly sure it's the only film they were both in.

 

[Roughtrade]

Well, 50s era sci fi is usually one of the genres I can get, this one is eluding me. But I can try guessing some of the famous ones.

 

Destination Moon?

[Lord Foul]

Nope. Have another picture, and another well-known cast member to cross-reference...

And here's a BIG clue. The gentleman on the right is eponymous, at least in the UK release. I'll take either UK or US titles.

I’m still drawing a blank.

 

but ket me throw in my two cents about the “famous” movies. We are all at different stages of our movie knowledge. A whole lot of the “famous” movies posted here I have never heard about, or the ones I considered famous seemed to be unknown. While some of the less well known are immediately recognized. We are likely all hitting our head, once you have solved this one, because it’s a well known name, but just a movie I have not seen.
Again just my own personal opinion, I do like the challenge of having to think a bit harder what the solution might be. A little detective work is appealing to me. But that is just me.

Just don't throw up 1920's Soviet cinema (Well, other than Battleship Potemkin, of course). It's been done.

 

As for this, I could swear I know it but am momentarily blank on the title.

[Lord Foul]

Okay, people have generally been drawing a blank with this one. I'm going to give it one more go and if nobody gets it from these pics I'll reveal the answer.

To Re-Phrase:

All of us can find movies that we are almost certain nobody else has seen. Don't do that.
