I don't recall it from there and I don't see it on the soundtrack listing.

It's certainly a Celtic air and the composer is a Scot, not that he is well known...

That one might be a foul on my part. That's not my genre. I haven't seen the movie, but the clip is unmistakeable. Feel free to put me in the penalty box smile.gif

We could close this round soon, award the Triwizard Cup and Eternal Glory, and start Round 2.

Q: Is anyone reading the scores in post #2 at the top of the thread? Does it matter?

I don't mind keeping track but if it's not important we won't worry about it.

If we do continue scoring, I had an evil idea of effectively handicapping people who are good at this game: initialize the Round 2 scores as the minus values of their final scores in Round 1. That would be a big hole for the high-volume players to work out of.

Would that be too wicked? This is supposed to be fun; if it becomes irritating then it has strayed from the purpose.

PM me with your thoughts.

Here's different clip from the same movie, but by a different artist. I've heard this used in other places: football specials?

Name that artist, song or movie.

I think it's fun as well. FWIW, I really enjoy this thread, it's become one of my favorite spots to find out about movies that I've never heard of, or should have watched.

I wasn't aware that ranked scores were tracked until now. Pretty cool. Whether you continue to keep track or not, I enjoy this thread!

Yes sir, you are correct. Fascinating look at the life and times of Bob Marley. A well done documentary released in 2012.

CREATOR: gd-jpeg v1.0 (using IJG JPEG v62), quality = 90

It's streaming on Netflix and the quality is very good...watched in Super HD. Recommended.

Your trick worked on me, I thought it was the bar scene from Grifters at first glance.

Correct! That is one memorable hairdo, otherwise I thought of using a pic of Burt dumping the car in the water.
