I'm thinking of a movie....

To steal an idea from pugmalion1 on the IMDb message board...

Here's the deal. I'm thinking of a movie, and you have unlimited questions to guess which one. They have to be "yes or no" questions. Guessing the movie counts as a question. The thread will stay open for one month to give everyone a chance to figure it out. If no one guesses the correct film, I will give the answer and then either post another one, or hand it off to someone else (depending on my mood and how busy I am).

Oh, and you can't ask me if it was made between years x and y. That's two questions. You can ask me if it was made after year x or before year y, but not both at the same time.

Simple enough? Good. I'll post the answers to the questions asked on the main thread, for ease of use. The first person to guess correctly wins and gets to start the new thread. Go!
