Montage Round - Issue 119
Here are a few hints to this month's British films montage quiz...

STOP PRESS: CLICK HERE FOR THE ANSWERS TO THE BRITISH FILMS MONTAGE ROUND IN ISSUE 119 >>

Our British film montage was created during the halcyon days of the World Cup, when an English team flew the Union Jack for our big-arsed island and stuttered all the way to a shabby quarter final exit. Great days. Still, just because our football teams are pants, doesn’t mean our films are too; even if they are a little hard to figure out in Montage format. Here’s a friendly, helping hand…

The tombstone… think of another word for one of ’em, and then what someone who walked around saying the inscription may be. The film’s Scottish, by the way.

Lots of trouble with the Leonardo DiCaprio one, and, fair to say, it’s perhaps the most obscure film on the page. But, to help you out – think of one of Leo’s roles, and what family of instrument a French horn falls into… Should get it from there.

The three chaps (one with guitar, one with cap, one called Jamie Oliver) are all from the same county. Perhaps more famous for its girls.

Green man will be a struggle for anyone not particularly well versed in recent British music. But, to give you something to Google, the bloke’s name is Mike Skinner.

As for the poem – it’s by Rudyard Kipling, and refers to a great, great Malcolm McDowell film set in a big old public school.

Hope that helps – feel free to ask for further clues should you need, but in the meantime bone up on crime and gangster films. For they’ll be here next month – and one of them is the hardest clue yet… Enjoy.
