Film Quiz Friday: Famous Last Words...

Share this Article:

Dolly back your deckchair in astonishment! It’s time for another Friday film quiz, and some of the questions in this week’s selection come from the very end of the movies they’re about.

There are another 30 movie-related questions in this week’s edition, suitable for solo or team play or simply nicking and reading out because it’s your turn to quizmaster for friends and family. It’s a nice chewy sandwich of a quiz this week, with some famous last lines flanked by more general knowledge questions in the first and last rounds.

At the bottom of this post, you’ll find a link to a separate post with the correct answers once you’ve completed all three rounds. Please do get in touch in the comments and let us know how you did (scores out of 31 this week!) – we’re open to any other feedback or requests for specialist rounds too! Here’s your first round…

ROUND ONE – This Week in Movie History

This round is around about new releases and general film history from this week in years past – we’ve given you the year at the start of each question to help out!

ROUND TWO – One Last Question…

This round’s nice and straightforward and quite tough, probably – if these final lines from movies are the questions, then the titles of those movies are the answers. Once again, we’ve included the year it was released, and all you have to do is name the movie…

“I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?” (1986)
“Say friend, ya got any more of that good sarsaparilla?” (1998)
“Eliza? Where the devil are my slippers?” (1964)
“One more thing, Sofie… is she aware her daughter is still alive?” (2003)
“Well, I know what I’ve got here. Come on. I’ll buy you a drink. You know, a drink?” (1981)
“Kevin, what have you done to my room?” (1990)
“What about the person we show it to? What happens to them?” (2002)
“What are you thinking? How are you feeling? What have we done to each other? What will we do?” (2014)
“Now, where was I?” (2000)
“It’s too bad she won’t live – but then again, who does?” (1982)

(And for a cheeky bonus point, which 2011 movie closes with the typewritten bit pictured above?)
