Stump the LAMBs Movie Trivia Quiz Answer: The Grand
Image via Wikipedia Okay, this is more like it. I made the last question harder and only one person got the answer. One other LAMB gave it his all and submitted multiple guesses, but unfortunately none of them were correct. I like that he tried so hard though!
See the bottom of this post for the next question.
Here’s the last question again:
A movie was released sometime in the last decade that had a scene featuring a character wearing a yarmulke covered with images of playing cards. Name the movie and the actor.
The answer:
Brett Ratner in The Grand
For those who haven’t seen it, The Grand is a mockumentary about a winner-take-all poker tournament. Similar to Christopher Guest’s movies (though Guest wasn’t involved), there was only a loose script and most of the dialog was improvised. Brett Ratner was only on-screen for a few minutes, but his yarmulke covered in playing cards was definitely attention-getting.
Woody Harrelson, Dennis Farina, David Cross, Richard Kind, Cheryl Hines and Michael McKean star in The Grand, along with other great improvisational comedians. Everyone’s performances were great, but what made it really worth watching for me was Chris Parnell’s (30 Rock’s Dr. Spaceman) take on the obsessive-compulsive characteristics of some actual professional poker players — absolutely hilarious.
Here’s our only winning LAMB:
DJ Heinlein from MATTE HAVOC
Dean Treadway from filmicability with Dean Treadway gets honorable mention for his guesses:
Martin Landau in Rounders
Eliott Gould in Ocean’s 11, Ocean’s 12 or Ocean’s 13
Adam Goldberg in The Hebrew Hammer
Here’s the next question:
A movie featured a character who slept outside in his yard on a bed with an end table and lamp on either side of it. Which actor played the outdoor-snoozing character and what is the name of the movie?
