I was joking. There was no cropping.

So is there a database of pr0n magazines in film? Like the car one?

Manny EGo: this is a good choice of images because there is no way I'm going to google for movies or images with hustler in them.

Is the first black and white image from a movie being watched by characters in the movie being guessed?

There is a 1961 movie called 'The Hustler', starring Paul Newman, but somehow I seriously doubt the first picture is from that film... Razz

Hmmm; a movie which contains both black & white and color... The only one that comes to mind is Sin City. Confused

Is that an updated version? Because I don't remember Dorothy having a Hustler magazine. Razz

The black and white bit is more of an introduction.

I really know this film: at some point a character explains this or something like it:

some website wrote:

In the beginning of the movie Magnolia, a classic causal conundrum is dramatized. A fifteen-year-old boy goes up to the roof of his ten-story apartment building, ponders the abyss, and jumps to his death. Did he commit suicide? It turns out that construction workers had installed netting the day before that would have saved him from the fall, but as he is falling past the fifth story, a gun is shot from inside the building by his mother, and the bullet kills the boy instantly. Did his mother murder her son? As it turns out, his mother fired the family rifle at his drunk step-father but missed and shot her son by mistake. She fired the gun every week at approximately that time after their horrific regular argument, which the boy cited as his reason for attempting suicide, but the gun was usually not loaded. This week the boy secretly loaded the gun without telling his parents, presumably with the intent of causing the death of his stepfather. Did he, then, in fact commit suicide, albeit unintentionally?
linky

but I can't get the film!

Magnolia?

Edit - I'm hoping no-one noticed that I didn't actually read the first sentence of the thing that I just quoted. Embarassed

It is indeed Magnolia.

I loved Magnolia but I would never have guessed it from those clues. It is definitely worth watching.

It's a favourite Smile I don't remember the black and white bit at all - just the diagram. The frog would have done it though. Or a clip of the extreme dentistry *shudders*

Sorry for the following image. The next one will be sharper unless someone gets it first Smile

That one's Baron Munchausen (or however you spell it).

I believe at that point he's trying to escape from the moon on a very long rope.

You're up! Sometimes I have days where I want to escape from the moon using a very long rope.
