It's not knowing how many words that's the problem!
Looking for th and e's in the longer ones.

I thought I'd leave out the number of word & letters, at least to start with, as every anagram includes a hint to the answer, but let's see how it goes...

For 4, just think of famous Coppola film...

7. Angels with dirty faces

WD! 

apocalypse now

9) Monte Carlo or Bust!

9 Monte Carlo or Bust

Favourite Jimmy Cagney film.

wd Jim

apocalypse now

Just 1 remaining:

3. Pole's ruin  (1 word)

wd Jim

Eh?

too slow

wd Des, HGS also got that one.

They’re very clever clues for an anagram quiz.

Was thinking the same thing myself

Oops apologies TNM, I was flying thru too quickly, lol!  reset:

WD TNM for Monte Carlo Or Bust, and Jim for a very close second

For 3, 'Pole' refers to the nationality of the director

replulsion

Hi s.kenbo, these are the type of anagrams (aptagrams, or semi-aptagrams) that take much longer to put together than actually solve, lol.

repulsion even

Excellent anagrams them hfink. Well done ursen!

repulsion

Aspro, you'll be glad to hear that's the last of that type of quiz! Aptagrams are bl00dy hard to find!

Never seen them before, but soon cottoned on (well, probably took a little longer). They're excellent!

more my type of quiz tbh ....heres hoping for another one ...cheers

Thanks HGS, I almost got "ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN":

PRESS NAILED THEM...but was left with the unpromising letters "LENT" !

Cheers Hfink. Hard afternoons quizzing. The Chablis beckons.....

beaten to it again

Did you think them up yourself, or borrow them from somewhere?

I always liked the Clint Eastwood anagram. I will have to Google it first though!

Cheers liqernpoker, they're a rare breed though, and lot's of playing with the Wordsmith.org anagram program to try to get something useful from remaining letters.

i always do the cryptic crosswords ....certainly helps ....

Old West Action - for Clint.

Take a look at the new thread guys. If enough interest we'll get going with it (need to create it first)

Hi kenbo, yeah, they're all mine, some go years back though. Myself and a colleague at work used to fire film anagrams at each other (in between work, as it were!), and I started to favour the 'apt' variety. But as I say, hard to find. You look for a name or something suitable in the title, then just try to work something around. Fails more often that not of course.

The Clint Eastwood one is "Old West Action".

*than not

Ah, yes, you put the Clint one before me kenbo

Like "Moon Starer" for Astronomer. There are quite a few listed on the internet somewhere.

thanks hfink, good clues.

Hi liqernpoker, if you like the cryptics, then I've got a number of film/film-related cryptic clues (i.e. newspaper type clues) I've collected down the years. I can put them up on here one week.

Cheers politics, glad you liked them.
