Name That …

Several years ago, my wife and I put on a party in our senior community; (we were the "youngsters" living there.)  The activity we created that everyone loved was "Name That Movie" (clips of old classics, of course).  The social room with a kitchen and big-screen TV was perfect for this. It was like what we did decades earlier with young couples for Valentines in East Mill Creek; (you guessed it –lots of romantic movies.)

The idea came from the old “Name That Tune”  --“a television game show that put two contestants against each other to test their knowledge of songs. Premiering in the United States on NBC Radio in 1952,  …”  --Wikipedia.

The following are examples of what you can put together yourself, according to your own group’s interests.  They come from TV, radio, newspaper, magazines, and movies –to search and learn/verify the source, or medium.   Try it with a friend and see who can guess first, before relying on the Internet, or who can search the fastest, right out of the gate.

I hope you searched and found a few.  It’s fast, and food for fun.
