Movie Trivia Quiz # 592

This is Movie Trivia Quiz # 592; GOOD LUCK, and we hope you enjoy! There are also many more Movie trivia questions for you to enjoy on our website. At any time, you can go to the main Movie Quiz index, or try a random quiz.

Movie Question 1
"The Return of the King" - The Bloopers! - Samwise the Brave, temporarily in possession of the One Ring, charges into the Tower of Cirith Ungol to rescue Frodo. The minions of Mordor have mostly killed each other off over ownership of the mithril shirt, but Sam still encounters some big Uruks on the stairway. In the theatrical release, Sam sees four, and then three orcs--a blooper that is finally explained in the Extended Version. How many orcs are actually alive at the time Sam starts to climb the stairs?
 Four
 Two
 Three
 Five
The correct answer is 'Five'
In the theatrical release, we initially see four orcs descending the stairs. After we see Sam's shadow and hear him growling as he climbs the stairs, we flash back to the Uruks--and now there are only three. One of them has run up the stairs, but if you look closely, it's not the same orc that confronts Frodo later. The mystery is solved in the Extended Version, where we see the fourth Uruk slinking away with the mithril shirt! That makes four Uruks on the stairs--and the leader that intends to kill Frodo makes five!

"Sabrina" is the story of a chauffer's daughter who is in love with the playboy son of the family her father drives for. These lyrics play when Linus (Humphrey Bogart) and Sabrina (Audrey Hepburn) are in the boat on the sea. The other three choices were 1954 Best Picture Academy Award nominees.
