All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. So goes the old maxim. And that’s probably why movies have been so popular since they came on the scene more than a hundred years ago. They offer an armchair journey to another place or another time, sometimes even into a distant future. They play an important role in our enjoyment of life and make a huge contribution to popular culture. Tonight’s Oscars will award the best escape vehicles of the past year. In recognition of the big event, see how many movies you can identify from this short clip. My guess: even if you say you’re no movie buff, you’ll recognize quite a few.
