Quiz: How Many Of These Classic Kirk Douglas Movies Can You Name?
"I'm Spartacus!"
If you consider yourself to be a Golden Age movie fan then this quiz might just be for you! For over 50 years, Kirk Douglas has graced our silver screens and is still with us today at the young age of 102 years old. [BUZZ NOTE: Of course this was posted before his recent birthday] Before picking up his spear in Spartacus, Douglas started out playing the good ole' boy in films such as "The Strange Loves of Martha Ivers" and Walt Disney's "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" and took a turn into more tough guy roles with "Ace in the Hole" and "Out of the Past" co-starring Robert Mitchum and Jane Greer.
Along with his remarkable career and success, Douglas was also a pioneer in the industry as he took a stand against Hollywood's Blacklist and recruited black-balled screenwriters including the great Donald Trumbo who wrote the iconic "Spartacus" and the Oscar winning film "Lonely Are the Brave."
In honor of Kirk Douglas' birthday, take this movie trivia quiz and see if you can name all of these movies starring the legend himself!

You might think I'm a bit of a classic movie buff, but I only got 67% on this quiz. I made one bad mistake where my mouse slipped when I clicked it on the answer, but it couldn't be corrected. Maybe I would have made it up to 69%or 70% if I could have fixed it, but I couldn't.
If you still like doing them there are some really good ones available, like being able to tell the name of a movie from a hint of just one word. For example, if the word were "transit" I would think of the "Letters of Transit" that was the McGuffin in "Casablanca", or "shower", I would think of Alfred Hitchcock's "Psycho". The fact that the quizzes give you 3 choices does make it easier because you can often discount two of them as ones you know are not correct.
So give it a shot and let us know how you did.
Doesn't anyone want to try this quiz? Don't be embarrassed if you don't get a good score - I only got 67% myself.

I flipped it the bird.

It told me I sucked and I did suck!
That’s ok. We don’t suck at the important things! 😉
Not much difference. Oh well, like I told Sunshine, we are better than our scores! 😁
