Ah, 1960s cinema - before there were computer generated effects, before social media, when Hollywood was Hollywood and the actors were larger than life. This was a time of big names and even bigger stories. Rare were the remakes so common today. We had amazing novel adaptations, exciting westerners, psychological thrillers that broke new ground and some of the best directors the world has ever known. If you love 60s cinema or are just curious to see how much you may remember of the time - we've prepared a challenging and fun quiz for you to beat. The only questions remaining is: Are you a 1960s movie expert?
