First and Last, Sky Shots

the first and last images from motion pictures. So many movies begin with a sky shot. But do you know which movie this is?


another clue: the first and last lines of dialogue

first: [screaming]
last: It's not too late.

Can you guess the movie?

check your answer after the jump.

 

Congrats to Zak. This was a toughie but it's the Ethan Hawke vampire film DAYBREAKERS. Well done Zak.

That last image feels vaguely "Piano-ish" but I really don't think that's right at all. Not enough green in that first image.

Daybreakers.

I saw it few days ago. Completely laughable waste of time.

Mikhael -- well, it is a bat!

Erich -- lol.exactly. total french movie ;)

The Descent?

March 23, 2011 | Unregistered CommenterDan

Dan: He confirmed it's a Gene Hackman movie. I've seen 11 movies that have him in a role. (He barely has a role in Reds, however.) It's not any of the ones I've seen (Bonnie and Clyde, The French Connection, Superman, Reds, Unforgiven, Young Frankenstein, The Conversation, Antz, The Royal Tenenbaums, Runaway Jury and Welcome to Mooseport. That last one was EMBARRASING. No wonder he retired.)
