The game's question
Read each clue aloud, let the memory come, then decide together.
Mid-1960s: one name on the marquee was enough to fill a movie theater. Picture the line at the box office and the posters by the door. Here is what people say: in 1966, and again in 1967, theater owners named Julie Andrews the No. 1 box-office star in the country. Decide together: is that true?
- True
- Not true
- Only in 1966
Need a hint?
Imagine the posters outside the theater in those two years, one after the other. Whose name do you see at the top, above the title?
See the answer
Answer: True—No. 1 at the box office two years in a row, 1966 and 1967.
Why this game : True or not, the question gets you talking about the movies of those years and the ones you loved most.
