StoneKeeper's Super Awesome Movie Guessing Game: I recommend THIS Movie #1077 [It Happened in Europe (1948), guessed by MonStar]
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, actor, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve Cabbage Patch Kids. Also, you can use Metascore color or rating, Rotten Tomatoes score, any award wins or nominations in common, same number of words in the title, plot keywords.

MonStar climbs another rung up the scoreboard with It Happened In Europe (1948), also known by its alternative English title Somewhere in Europe. The movie is about a group of children orphaned by WWII aimlessly roaming the countryside in Hungary. They eventually show up at an abandoned castle occupied by an anti-fascist musician laying low there, and under his guidance they regain some structure in their lives and remake themselves as an anti-fascist resistance group. It's considered one of the all-time great Hungarian movies. Highly recommend.
