> [@](#): > > #61 - Trick question. The first time Fox’s character (Marty McFly) is confronted by the Libyan terrorists it is at Twin Pines Mall. The second time he is at the mall is upon returning from the future a little early. He watches himself in the previous confrontation from a distance. And the name of the mall is now Lone Pine Mall - presumably because he ran over one of the pine trees in an escape from the farmer in the past. I apologize for not having all the information here. In a forum in The BBQ Pit (which see; I’ll post the link for it in this thread shortly), I said I had left the theater just after the Libyans fired on Lloyd and Fox so I didn’t know he encountered them again. The _department store_ (not a mall) was J. C. Penney. The unanswered questions: 60. Oakie, apparently drowsy or drugged, imagines he sees a dam bursting in the end zone, wails, “Oh Mama!” and runs the other way. (Sorry, I don’t know the title.) 62. It’s set in an amusement park. (Ditto.) 64. I still don’t know who played Kane’s “other woman.” 65. In _Run Silent, Run Deep,_ Clark Gable listens to Tokyo Rose’s broadcast and it seems she has personal information about one of his sailors that the Japanese could only have known if they inspected wreckage. So Gable gives them a red herring. 68. The Santeria cultist distracts the customs agent by using a hypnotic stare. 79. In _Kid from Left Field,_ the star pitcher “Bermudas” goes to third base while the other pitcher pitches to the one batter who hits Bermudas like he owns him. After this batter is retired Bermudas returns to the mound. 81. A tiny shoe. 83. Only one–the butler, Bristol. ---

#89: The actress who saw Mrs. Bates’ skeleton in the basement was Vera Miles. #91: It was the _Ile de France._ #93: Stanley sings “Trail of the Lonesome Pine,” gets clunked on the head during the song, and sings the last line in a falsetto voice. 😃 A few more: 105.

To Zoggie and others: I’m sorry, I don’t know about 97 to 99…since most other Dopers have considerably more exposure to movies than I do, the questions others have posted here are, almost without exception, a total mystery to me. ---
