Well, I flunked a phone interview to audition as a Pop Culture Junkie for a game show as I was proposed the question - Name 10 films that won "Best Picture"? And what came to my pea-brain mind? "Titanic" and "Schindler's List". I was a bloody deer caught-in-the-headlights. What the hell?!? So, I did my research and made a mental note of these. I'm ready now for my big audition - bring it on! I mean, could YOU name ten of these films on the spot?
