A FOOD ORIENTED GAME

If you want to dine at the new Hollywood hot spot, Babette’s, you better know your movies. All the items on the menu are titles (or portions of titles) of films. But the chef feels there is no need to actually name the foods, just facts about the films. See how well you would be able to order:
