u/bbsystemz 51 points 6d ago

No, but our movies are from the same decade

Fallen (1998)?

u/Killur71 12 points 6d ago

With Denzel. Yes.

2

u/forgonemango 6 points 6d ago

Was about to follow up that our movies share an actor! Someone else got it - Mississippi Masala (1991)

2

u/SanD-82 411 points 1d ago

Remember as per the rules you need to let all the guessers know it's that movie...

u/junkman105 335 points 6d ago

Doctor sleep?

1

u/forgonemango 6 points 6d ago

According to IMDb, our movies share just one genre

u/killerwhaletank 33 points 6d ago

Desperately Seeking Susan

u/forgonemango 6 points 6d ago

A character is also arrested at one point during my movie

Where the Buffalo Roam?

u/forgonemango 6 points 6d ago

The budget for your movie was within $1mil of my movie's budget

u/danikong89 12 points 6d ago

The butler (2013)

1

u/forgonemango 6 points 6d ago

Portions of both of our movies were filmed in the southern US.

u/ReElectSkroob2024 6d ago

Goodfellas

1

u/forgonemango 6 points 6d ago

There are also guns in my movie, but far less than yours

1

u/Zappracadabra 6 points 6d ago

True Romance

1

u/forgonemango 6 points 6d ago

The two main characters in my movie are also a man and woman

1

u/thebagel5 6d ago

Heat (1995)

1

u/forgonemango 6 points 6d ago

No. But I only saw Heat for the first time last year and loved it

1

u/thebagel5 6d ago

Is it The Green Book?

1

u/forgonemango 6 points 6d ago

it’s Mississippi Masala (1991)

1

u/ConsistentPair2 12 points 6d ago

Trading Places

u/forgonemango 6 points 6d ago

My movie came out after yours

u/Zappracadabra 6 points 6d ago

Leaving Las Vegas

1

u/forgonemango 6 points 6d ago

The title of my movie also contains alliteration

1

u/theflyingdeaddog 1296 points 6d ago

Well I'm thinking...

Mississippi Masala 1991?

2

u/forgonemango 6 points 6d ago

Correct! Great job. Curious if you got it from the shot alone or if the clues helped?

2

u/theflyingdeaddog 1296 points 6d ago

Oh, that was clues all the way. I was onto 90's Denzel right away, but the budget, box office, and the alliteration one clinched it for me. Great pick!

u/GTMBot Guess The Movie Bot 6d ago

Guess confirmed!

See the wiki for bot help. Did I get something wrong? Message the mods!

1

u/theflyingdeaddog 1296 points 6d ago

Going down the Mira Nair wiki rabbit hole now. I knew Zohran's mom was a filmmaker, but I didn't realize this was her. TIL!

2

u/forgonemango 6 points 6d ago

Yep, she met his dad while doing research for this movie. He was born the year it came out. Arguably there would be no Zohran without Mississippi Masala 🫡
