Movies Quiz PART 1 🎬🍿🎵 'National Cinema Day' 2nd Sept




Here is a straightforward 'Music From The Movies Quiz'. There are two ways of playing it.


First, you could print off screenshots of the rounds as handouts, with members guessing at the name of the movie from the pictures and answering the questions. A few selected ongs can then be played in between rounds to break it up a little.


The second way of playing is to print off the movie posters and play music from the attached Spotify playlist randomly and members having to name the movie and link the music to the movie poster.


There's a lot of material here - nine rounds of ten questions, so you could split it up into several sessions. Make time for listening to whole songs if members wish and for discussion about favourite movies.


You could enhance the session by playing video clips from YouTube.
