Film Quiz Friday: Dilemma Stone

Share this Article:

And now for something completely different – this week’s film quiz features more questions, some of them about Emma Stone movies.


Kinds Of Kindness is Emma Stone’s second movie with Yorgos Lanthimos to be released in UK cinemas this year. She also plays multiple characters in the anthology film. We know how much everyone loves our 50/50 film quiz questions, so there’s a whole bunch of them about Stone’s other films in Round Two. The rest are more straightforward, so don’t panic.

Once you’ve completed all three rounds, you’ll find a link to a separate post with the correct answers at the bottom of this post. As always, this is all just for fun, but please let us know how you did in the comments (scores out of 30 this week!) and give us any other lovely feedback. That may or may not be a Kind of Kindness ā€“ we’ll leave that up to you as well…
