Look Who's Talking (1989): 2 lines

  1. unmapped (autobiographical) · them, directly: Harold Ramis ⇒ Look Who's Talking (the host's read). The speakers say the film is Heckerling's personal grievance about Ramis, who fathered her daughter Molly while Neil Israel believed the child was his.
    “The child that Neil Israel thought was his own was actually the byproduct of a years-long affair that she had had with Harold Ramos.”

  2. unmapped (roman a clef) · them, directly: Harold Ramis ⇒ Look Who's Talking (the host's read). Kirstie Alley's character Molly shares a name with Heckerling's daughter and echoes Ramis's leave-my-wife promise.
    “Kirsty Alli's character is named Molly. Amy Heckerling and Harold Ramos's illegitimate daughter is named Molly.”

Edge of Tomorrow (2014): 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Groundhog Day (1993), which they directed: Groundhog Day ⇒ Edge of Tomorrow (the host's read). The pitch is Groundhog Day as sci-fi action, and it keeps the loop while adding war stakes.
    “Doug Lyman is doing like an sci-fi action movie groundhog day with Tom Cruise”
