The Challenge

The question asks which iconic film from 1978 made one actor a superstar. Four portraits sit in a neat grid, and four answer options wait below them. Your job is to recognize the performer and link them to the right movie.

Visual Clues From the Image

The graphic is clean and simple, so the clues are subtle but helpful. Here is what you can see:

  • Person #1 appears in the top-left square, lit evenly like a studio portrait.
  • Person #2 fills the top-right square with the same bright, even light.
  • Person #3 and Person #4 complete the bottom row, all shot against the same plain background.
  • The clapperboard and film reel icon signal that the question is about movies.

Because all four portraits share the same lighting and style, the design itself gives no hint about who is who. Look closely at faces, hairstyles, and expressions instead.

General Hints About the Category

Late 1970s films were full of bold music, bright costumes, and memorable dance scenes. Many of the biggest hits from that period still show up on television marathons and movie nights today. If you grew up watching classic films, you may already have a good instinct for this one.

How to Play

Start by studying each portrait for a few seconds. Then read the four answer options carefully and eliminate any movie that does not fit the 1978 clue. Make your best guess before you check any hints.

  1. Pick the portrait that feels most familiar.
  2. Match it to the film from 1978 that you remember best.
  3. Choose one of the four answer buttons.
