"Inside Out" May 16, 2025

Post by Bob cruise director »

This week's contest is titled Inside Out by Matt Gaffney.

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

Inside Out Excel File
SAVE to your drive.
OPEN from your drive.
ALLOW permissions.

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.

Got it after a reasonable ponder.

Ashore. I remember my parents had this VHS (recorded, not purchased) and always being curious about it but far too interested in The Great Chipmunk Adventure to give it a shot.

I don't have anything clever to say, but if I did, it would go here.
