Movie Title Game: Before & After


Just like the Jeopardy category Before & After.

The answer is a combination of two movie titles.

First one...
Matthew McConaughey is a lawyer who teams up with Uma Thurman to exact vengeance.

BullSchmidt had our inaugural correct answer with...A Time to Kill Bill

nice! thought it might've been a little obscure.

(The first movie is a documentary. Also, there's a slight cheat here; the common before/after word is pronounced the same but spelled slightly differently in the two films.)

Berlin has one of the world's most bizarre charities: based on the idea that sex can change the world, it raises money for its environmental cause by selling home-made erotic films on the Internet which feature an Alabama man with an IQ of 75, whose only desire is to be reunited with his childhood sweetheart and who has a taste for chocolate.

(If you don't have a clue what the documentary is -- and it is pretty obscure, I had never heard of it until I searched for things I could match with the second film -- I encourage you to go ahead and Google away to track it down. I've made it pretty easy for you to do that. If you need to do that to figure it out but it strikes you as cheating, then go ahead and just don't post the answer here. Trust me. If on the other hand you don't consider it cheating, then go ahead and solve it and post the answer.)

EDIT: OK, it seems nobody is rising to the challenge. Also, it looks like this thread is losing steam. So I'll go ahead and post the answer. The two movies are:

And so ... Fuck for Forrest Gump

And to get laid.

"I'm sorry, I've got a headache."

"But it's for Forrest Gump. He needs us to do this, honey."

"Yeah, I guess you're right. OK."

Well, the movie title has an ampersand, not the word "and," so maybe you should get this.

This one's a triple:

Stranded in the past, a young time traveler discovers that his eccentric, elderly friend died even seventy years earlier and must go back in time to save him. He makes the trip, but with the time machine out of fuel the two are stuck in the past. They end up living between unusual neighbors; on one side are three bachelors forced to take care of a baby left by one of the their girlfriends, and on the other side an immature child bride holds her anxious husband at bay while flirting with an amorous Sicilian farmer.

I thought it was very creative of you to use a sequel number as part of the answer.

Thanks. But I'm more proud of the one I did above on this same page, which uses "Forest" and "Forrest."

Dang!
That was a creative one👍
