Stonekeeper's Winter Game: I recommend THIS Mystery Movie #194 [White Sun of the Desert (1970), guessed by FredBurroughs]


So you guys like to play games? Here is an investigation game that can be time consuming but it's lots of fun. Basically, I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guys are going to guess, I will give a hint that CONNECTS your guess with the movie I have in mind.

Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve a love triangle.

- The winner can either start a new game or say "pass". In case of a pass, the OP gets to start another one.
- After 12 hints, the point goes to the OP and he/she gets to start another one.
- Movie must have at least 3500 votes on IMDB.


Hint 1: Santa Paws 2: The Santa Pups (2012) - Fewer than 100,000 votes on IMDb.
Hint 2: The Gods Must Be Crazy (1980) - Takes place outside the Americas.
Hint 3: Byzantium (2012) - Drama genre in common.
Hint 4: The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc (1999) - Shares the keyword: "soldier".
Hint 5: The Great Train Robbery (1978) - Released earlier than 1980.
Hint 6: Papillon (2017) - IMDb rating over 7.0.
Hint 7: Soldier of Orange (1977) - Set in a non-English-speaking country.
Hint 8: Zulu (1964) - Released later than 1960.
Hint 9: The Guns of Navarone (1961) - The setting is a war in the first half of the 20th century.
Hint 10: Two Women (1960) - Runtime between 80 and 105 minutes.
Hint 11: All Quiet on the Western Front (1979) - The movie was filmed in a communist country.

FredBurroughs wins with White Sun of the Desert (1970), a great Soviet movie set in Central Asia in the time of the Russian civil war.

By the way, that's set in the Americas, which contradicts one of the hints.

French Guiana? Why was I thinking of the Med? Elba, maybe. Guess I fail geography for today.
