There’s a duplication of sorts in the e’s: > [@Colibri](#): > > **Earthquake** [This](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071455/) 1974 movie is the one I was referencing. There are two other movies by this name. > [@Sparky812](#): > > **Earthquake!** Since this one is [a two minute short,](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0343619/) I’m not sure it counts. There don’t seem to be any other movies by this name that use the exclamation point. The OP can make a ruling if shorts count. > [@Uncle\_Brother\_Walker](#): > > Ghandi I think you meant [Gandhi](http://www.imdb.com/find?s=all&q=Gandhi).😉 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/new-game-one-word-films-a-z/514706.md?page=22) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/new-game-one-word-films-a-z/514706.md?page=24)
