| It seems that stumping you is going to be a more difficult task than Filmbrain imagined. How was it that so many of you were able to identify this minor moment from John Frankenheimer's Seconds? Regardless, if you haven't seen this film -- you really must. Years ahead of its time, Seconds is a horrifying film that says more about America than it might appear to. Let's just hope that Hollywood doesn't decide to remake this one! Once again, Aaron H was first in with the correct answer. Well done, Mr. H. With the New York Film Festival in full swing, Filmbrain didn't have a lot of time to think about this week's quiz. So, at 1:14AM he randomly grabbed a DVD off the shelf and chose the following scene. As usual, send your guesses to this address. Good luck! |

Seconds -- nice choice. I agree, years ahead of its time. For what it's worth, I recall having heard (about two years ago) that Mel Gibson was interested in remaking it but that news item quickly fell away from the trades.

I have a friend who works for the studio that is indeed remaking Seconds, currently with Jonathan Mostow rewriting and set to direct. Still on the back burner though.
