Order the Robert Richardson films by year of release. You place all 45 cards on one timeline, one at a time. Three wrong guesses ends the run.
Robert Richardson has lit films for some of the biggest directors around, and each card here is one of them, with that director shown underneath. You order them by year of release. One film is on the line at the start, its year visible. A correct pick for each new card reveals the year; a wrong one still puts the film in its true spot and costs you one of three lives.
His career is built on long partnerships with a few major directors known for political dramas, crime epics and genre-mashing revenge films, and those names keep coming back. Music documentaries, war films and biopics fill in around them. Because the same few directors fill most of the cards, the subtitle tells you whose film it is but rarely when.
Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
Here are 28 of the 45 cards you might be dealt, with 17 more in the deck. Their values stay hidden until you place them.
