Just save the pic, change the file name, and upload it on some server...

That's WAY too difficult, can't I say some magic word instead?

Yes! Dennis Hopper and one of the most beatiful women in the world? You could have posted Kyle's picture as an additional hint, but that would have been overkill. DH on nitrous is a classic for fringe movie afficionados.

Something funny about me is that if I have seen the movie, I can identify it from any scene or frame (providing it wasn't of something without feature, like a piece of paper). I would be good at this, but I don't watch movies much at all.
 
  • #16
Hmm.I seem to remember that Jack Nicholson is on that movie?

He has a rather wolfish smile, I think.

The earliest movie I've seen with Jack Nicholson in it is 'A Few Good Men'.
But I'm going to take a stab in the dark and say that it is 'The Two Jakes'.

He plays an ex-astronaut, but I can't remember the name of the movie. Is it "Terms of Endearment"?

i also don't know her name...by the way she is not the main actress of the movie...and if i estimate her role in the movie is not more than 2 minutes...

I previously thought you were talking of the 2nd snap of this movie..
