A Century of Cinema, Twenty Questions at a Time

Quizzes on the movies that stay watched

Double Feature is a movie trivia hub with one subject: the films people still argue about long after the house lights come up. The quizzes here cover the classic canon and the people who made it, the Best Picture winners across thirty ceremonies, the horror repertoire, and the decade of the multiplex, the 1980s. Every quiz runs in the page it lives on — pick a subject and start answering.

An answer key written twice

The answers come from a dataset compiled twice over, by two authors working separately, then compared entry against entry: a table of classic films with their directors, years, and genres; the Best Picture record from 1995 through 2024; and a catalog of cinema firsts. All seventy-seven keys agreed. Where the two candid drafts genuinely split — one famous film sat in the crime column for one author and the thriller column for the other — the question was cut rather than settled by fiat. A contested fact makes rotten multiple choice.

Some material was left out on purpose. Box-office records change hands, so they are not here. Films too recent to be settled are not here. And there is no quote bank: reproducing famous lines by the page is quotation by the pound, and we declined.

Four options, no account

Every question offers four options. Choose one and you see at once whether you were right, with the correct answer shown either way. At the end comes a full review of the round. Your best score is saved in your browser, and nothing asks you to sign up.
