The 'Number in the Title' Movie Quiz (1)

About This Quiz

Movie titles love clocks and calendars. Your only job: supply the missing number—the hours that test nerves, the days that change people, the weeks that fly by, the months that end in heartbreak.

Look out for look-alikes (28 Days vs. its jumpier cousin; One Hour vs. the 24-hour party). When in doubt, let the mood, setting, and wardrobe point the way.

Think of it as a quick scroll with friends—name the exact form and keep it moving. Parentheses? If you “see” them, they count.
