Last year I listened to the soundtrack during the day, then stuck the film om in the evening
There's definitely a caption, I saw it on YouTube.

Are there any films that take place on, fictional or historical, Inauguration Day (US Pres)? That's always 20 Jan.

Speaking of Jan, the other day I'd been hoping the invitation to the 'Hallowe'en in January' party in Brick had a date on it, but no such luck

Ooh! We also know that the day Bison graced Chun Li's village was a Tuesday.
Is that helpful?

Been trying to work out whether the 'Great Swell of '74' in Big Wednesday was set on an actual Wednesday. There's online anecdotes of "the swell of Saturday the 25th of May 1974" hitting the East Coast of Australia but not Malibu where the film's set (though the BW scenes filmed in Hawaii).

V for Vendetta - November 5th

Anger is Hi-NRG
Ulysses (1967) takes place over the course of one day, June 16th 1904
In which case...
Monday 29th September 1969, which'd be the day Withnall and Marwood drive the Jag from London to Cumbria...

How do I change this 'custom title' thing then?
May 29 takes place on the titular date.
