  • Pick a button in either column, then its partner in the other.
  • Changed your mind? Tap the picked button again to put it down, or pick another in the same column.
  • Keyboard: the arrow keys walk the columns and Enter picks.
  • Pause whenever you like (Esc). The board hides while the clock is stopped.

Join each film to its director. The two columns appear when you start.

About this quiz

The directors are the ones the British Film Institute credits beside each film in the published poll. Several directors have more than one film in the hundred.

  • Two films by the same director have the same right hand tile, and either copy counts.
  • Co-directed films show both names on one tile.
  • Five wrong joins end the round.
