StoneKeeper's Delightful Movie Guessing Game: I recommend THIS Mystery Movie #1033 [The Red Detachment of Women (1961), guessed by tcrum]


I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you 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 Cabbage Patch Kids.
