I was confused reading the clue, and was trying to think of a Frank Sinatra film. Duh. Anyway, maybe Jen from Brooklyn will get it, but I doubt it. 0/3
I wonder if any of the contestants have seen the movie, esp the priest.
I’ll say ZERO right
This is this Oscar Winning director/screenwriter’s signature film… Danny Aiello was great in it, too! 1/3 correct answers.
I’ve never seen this film, but I know it takes place in a Brooklyn pizzeria. And I know of no other films that take place in a Brooklyn pizzeria. I’ll say 1/3.
