It is time to test your film knowledge with the December edition of I Have Scene It Before. Last month only 14 of the 21 films were identified. The films that proved challenging were: Clint Eastwood’s Letters from Iwo Jima (#3), 2014’s Batman: Assault on Arkham (#9), 1978 Best Picture nominee Midnight Express (#10), Ryan Reynolds’ indie gem The Nines (#11), the 1992 apartheid musical Sarafina! (#17), George A. Romero’s Monkey Shines (#18), and the 2012 documentary A Place at the Table (#21). Here is this month’s selection of film scenes. How many can you identify?

19. That looks like Henry Rollins, but he’s been a talking head in so many things I can’t even hazard a guess as to what it is from.
20. Fletch?
And for last month I almost guessed Letters from Iwo Jima. I’ve also seen Midnight Express and The Nines, but didn’t connect those images to them.
Yep, I decided to go a bit easier this month…it is the holiday season after all. Don’t worry, I will be back to my scrooge-esque ways next month.
#19 and # 20 are wrong, the rest are correct.
8. Looks like Christian Bale. The ones unidentified thus far IDK.
Nope, that is not Christian Bale. Though the actor in the image has had his share of controversy like Bale.
I did guess 1,3,4,5,7 and 13 but they have all been claimed earlier. So let me give an original answer.
15. Bicycle Thieves?
Correct.
20. Snow Day
Correct.
Ahh, this is so cool! Man, reminds me how much I don’t know. I knew only a few of them. Here it goes:
