The answer to this week’s contest crossword is a well-known movie of the 1980s.

Your cruise director is in deep trouble. "Well Known" and "Movies from the 1980's" are different spheres of knowledge.

Well known from the 50's are - North by Northwest, To Catch a Thief, White Christmas

Or the 60's - 2001:A Space Odyssey, Bonnie and Clyde, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Doctor Zhivago, The Graduate

We will be showing these movies in the ship's lounge all weekend.

The call for a nudge may come quickly. The meta movie better be really "well known" or I am toast.
Fortunately--but maybe you didn't really want to hear this--movies from the 1980's are old enough to be aired on Turner Classic Movies, where my TV seems to be stuck.
This movie is well known enough. I've come across more then one reference to it in the last week. Of course, you don't see and read the same stuff I do.... or do you?

Clever one, but we were less than enthusiastic.....

Here we go:

Upside down,
Boy, you turn me
Inside out,
round and round...

On the beach! While I've never seen this film, I did perform in a play with one of the stars several years ago. So, guess I can check THAT off the bucket list.
