2017 MARDI GRAS TREASURE HUNT
This year’s Mardi Gras Treasure Hunt theme is movie trivia. Correctly identifying the featured movie in each day’s clue will get you closer to the hidden treasure.
CLUE 4: THURSDAY; February 16
This movie’s famous director takes us to a strange Tibetan land where health, peace, and long life reign. The film is based on the classic novel published in 1933. Oscars were won for Art Direction and Film Editing. Today’s featured film was remade in 1973 with music. If you feel lost trying to solve this clue just wait for tomorrow and a new horizon will help you find your way to the treasure.
CLUE 3: WEDNESDAY; February 15
(2002) How about a close encounter of a creepy kind? Well, this is your movie. A former preacher has taken to farming after the loss of his wife. He finds his fields have some mysterious crop circles designed in them which sound kind of corny, but leads to his realization that aliens are making a
visit. Keep the faith and the children will show the way to go so you conquer the clues and find the treasure.
CLUE 2: TUESDAY; February 14
(1960) Park yourself in a comfortable seat and watch one of the Cluemeister’s favorite films. A handful of out of work gunfighters take a job for little pay south of the border protecting farmers from a horde of bandits. Stop long enough to view this classic, but you might be asking yourself why you ever started this crazy treasure hunt. Like Vin says in the movie, “It seemed like a good idea at the time.”
CLUE 1: MONDAY; February 13
(1997) All aboard for another exciting Mardi Gras Treasure Hunt. This first clue was not the disaster portrayed in the film although it almost cost as much to create as it did to make the title character. Two young stars launched their very successful careers as the leads in this huge box office hit movie. The film went on to win 11 Oscars. If you want to win the treasure you don’t want to miss the boat.
