Brian Day 2 vs WinnR

Was confident of 5 when I submitted, then when I saw I got the first correct, I knew I had 6/6.   By the time I scrolled to the bottom I was left with 3, maybe 4

1) iambic. 2/2  I remember learning iambic pentameter, don’t know what it means but it was my only choice. Surprised to get it.  I agree w/Dave, iambic pays.

2) The Girl With the Pearl Earring.   1/2  Scarlett Johansson, and I think also Natalie Portman? Of course I know this.  But not quite.  I think since it’s a title, the ‘the’ will cost me.

3) Bob Hope. 0/1 went straight to Bob and never looked back, never bothered to look for an alternative.  A bad miss

4) Elizabeth 3/0 I agree with the group, how is this a fair question to 95% of the league? Unless you guess Elizabeth as a queen’s name to go along with George a king’s name.  Could be a common guess

5) the Maltese Falcon 1/3 never saw it, but I remember it was a mcguffin

6) Epsom.  2/1 as with Bob Hope, i latched onto salt and never Considered alternatives.
