Mystery film: 16 - revealed!

Follow, follow, follow, follow the yellow brick road along with our fantastic guessers this week; Zena, Stephen and David over on Facebook and Ian on Twitter, who all figured out they weren't in Kansas anymore and recognised the scene from the Wizard of Oz.

The 1939 film, which is based on L Frank Baum's book of the same name (good trivia for quiz-fans there), was surprisingly a box office failure when it was first released. That didn't stop it being nominated for six Academy Awards, of which it won two; Best Original Score and Best Music Song (for Over the Rainbow). It has gone on to be frequently nominated as one of the top films of all time in many film polls.

Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!

We'll be back with another mystery film tomorrow. See you then!
