To ask you to help me work out which film DD5 is trying to describe

DD5 is looking for this film:

It has the boys with hats and green hair in a black and white room. And the boys sing.

Wtf?

The way these threads always go, I'm betting it's Schindler's List Grin

BruceAndNosh · 20/09/2025 14:10

Backstreet Boys? 😂

ChatGPT always gets these and it has no idea.

If she’s been watching via your account go on and see if it suggests “continue watching”?

Snow White - I’m thinking when they sing the hi, ho it’s off to work we go song. Although the colours don’t match (I don’t think) but it’s a song, hats and boys.

Or Peter Pan - and she’s mixing up green hair with peters hat colour.

Ok.

I keep asking what else happens in this film, and she says nothing. I explained films are very long, and they can't just sing one song for that long. But that's all she can recall. DD has excellent recollection of things though.

I suspect it's just a shorter episode of something. She's potentially calling it a film because it's something you can select on Netflix/Prime

Does she mean boys, as in children, or could it be young men? If they only sing one song it does sound more like a music video.

LimeBasilandManderin · 20/09/2025 14:01

Is it a cartoon movie

NuffSaidSam · 20/09/2025 14:01

Sounds like a music video.

What happens after the bit with the boys with green hair singing? What's the next bit of the story?

New piece of info:

They sing just one song and I think it has really loud guitars

They do have green hair but they don't have hats

Cat in the Hat? Grinch?

NO mummy.

The Grinch doesn't have a hat. The Cat in the Hat has a red and white hat.

(That's me told)
