Bibliogryphon 9,589 Posted August 16, 2018 I have updated the Masterlist. Game starts on Monday 0001 BST late entries will be accepted but no late entries can duplicate actors. Nice to see some Forum favourites here A Night to Remember & The Great Escape. Who reckons round 1 will be over by Christmas? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not at all, I was tempted to pick The Eagle Has Landed, but I'm not convinced any of the living cast are in a great hurry to go yet, thankfully. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nakadai was the lead of a film that won a Bafta,Oscar and Cannes Kishi is a Unicef Goodwill Ambassador I think both would be 80-90% certain to get DDP Obits Misako Watanabe is a bit of a punt,obit chances dependent on the Guardian having a writer on staff the week she passes being a fan of the Yakuza Film "Youth Of The Beast".Not entirely impossible because The Guardian had multiple articles on the Director Seijun Suzuki the decade before he passed. That said a Japanese person in their mid 80's is like 70 for everyone else, so I would be shocked if any of them died soon 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
