It’s almost the weekend, so we’re introducing the Film Stories quiz, a few rounds of movie trivia to test your knowledge or annoy your friends and family.

Below you’ll find three rounds of questions, covering a wide range of movies, which we hope will keep your film brains ticking over until some sort of pub quiz is feasible once again. We’ve got 30 questions in total for you to play on your own or nick for that family Zoom quiz you were supposed to write before Saturday night.

There are no prizes to be won, this is strictly for fun, and as long as everyone has a lovely time, we’ve done our job. Grab yourself a pen and paper and give yourselves a point for every correct answer (you’ll find those at the bottom!) – let’s get quizzing…
