| The category: Movies of the '80s The clue: Based on an Off-Broadway play with just 3 characters, it won the Best Picture Oscar & the actors in all 3 roles were nominated. None of the 3 contestants got it right. One guessed ''My Dinner With Andre,'' and two guessed ''Glengarry Glen Ross.'' The answer: What is ''Driving Miss Daisy''? |

| The unspoiled answer is: The category: Movies of the '80s The clue: Based on an Off-Broadway play with just 3 characters, it won the Best Picture Oscar & the actors in all 3 roles were nominated. Read carefully. There is a sight bit of trickery. |

| This a good, challenging clue for theater fans...who remember the Oscar winners. It's too far back for me to pull it up without looking at a list. Not the first time I've felt defeated by an FJ in my "wheelhouse." (I hate that expression...) My memory also is not reliable enough that I'd be sure that the son's wife does not appear in the play, especially since she's Patti LuPone in the movie... |

| Thanks, Alan. I actually tried googling "FJ" and came up with Fleetvan Jeep and FootJoy Golf Aparrel. I even googled "an FJ in my wheelhouse", but still got the Jeep reference. I am a fan of Jeopardy, but sometimes I just can't see the forest for the trees. |
