Two LAMBs got the answer to the last question, which tells me they must be fans of '80s movies, teenage movies or both.

Here's the question again:

Name the movie in which Agnes Belushi (John and Jim Belushi's mother) plays an uncredited extra in a wedding scene.

The answer:

The answer is one of my favorite teen movies, 16 Candles, starring Molly Ringwald. Agnes Belushi is the woman Ginny Baker (played by the coincidentally named Blanche Baker) tries to sit next to while she's walking down the aisle at her wedding, stoned on tranquilizers.

This movie really captures the vulnerability of a teenage girl who already feels like a dork but is then thrown into abject insecurity when her parents forget her birthday. But it also has a happy ending, which involves the cutest guy in school. So our inner teenagers feel vindicated by the time the movie's over!

Here are the winning LAMBs:

Jigsaw of Jigsaws Lair

Dylan of Blog Cabins

Here's the next question:

Name the movie that had one cameraman die when a barge capsized during filming and also had two other crew members nearly killed because the ship they were on while shooting was lost at sea for two days.

Please include the following information in your response:

1. The movie name
2. Your name
3. Your blog name
4. Your blog URL
