This has to be the new Smurfs movie. I love all the new "dark" reboots... =)

Nope, it is not.

I hope this nice clue will help reveal the title. The previous pic wasnt too clear, indeed, but it's hard to find caps for this movie that dont say everything.

It's Bob Hoskins, isn't it? I have to say that I identified the actor by his chest hair. But no idea what's the movie.

Hm, I never watch male actors' chest hair when I watch the movie. I wonder...ah, nevermind. :mrgreen:

But it's Bob, indeed, now who's the female star? 1 to 1 and youll have the title of the movie. I hope. It is an absolute classic, considered one of the best crime movies ever made and one of the top 20 - according to some polls - British movies of all time. And it wasnt big hit of course, commercially.

Following your hints the movie is probably "The Long Good Friday". So the female star is Helen Mirren? I wouldn't have guessed that...

No I didn't. I used IMDB to find out who the female star was... :oops:

Well, it's not an outtake from Chariots of Fire I suppose, but running must be important in this movie. It's British though, Im sure.

Correct so far. It's not "Chariots of Fire", it's British and running (in some form) is even in the title.

No, in fact it is about the opposite of sprinting...

In that case, I'm guessing Iron Maiden has made a song about the same book this movie is based on.

I'd guess it's the loneliness of the long distance runner.

Yes. "The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner" it is.

Your turn, Zyx...

Gah. I don't watch that many movies these days, so it's difficult to come up with something...

Anyway, google images draws blank on this one so I have to wait until I get home to take a screencap.
