16 is correct! Re 15 nope, Italian guy ;) 24... you're close! The last three letters of the name are right and he's an opera composer too, but he was from the previous generation.

Rossini?

[janie-tangerine.livejournal.com]

Yep, correct! :D

Yay! Now, if it were Verdi, I would know right away! Did you ever see "Moonstruck?" The grandfather looks just like him (down to the scarf), a friend of mine pointed out.

ETA: And good grief, #20 is Smashing Pumpkins! The blond, curly hair on Billy threw me at first.

Moonstruck is the one with Cher and Nicholas Cage, right? I think I did but it was years ago, now I think I'll go have a look at it again asap because I really need to see the grandfather! And I had Verdi too in the list but alas he didn't show up...

And correct! :D I'll admit that I chose that one because I figured that the curly blonde hair would have made it harder... ;)

Here's a pic of the grandfather, although without the scarf that makes him look so much like Verdi. And one more. I LOVE that movie! So much fun. And I dream of finding a straight man who will beg me to go to the opera with him. Like that'll ever happen!

And here's the trailer. Nic Cage has a Verdi portrait in his apartment, LOL!

OMG he DOES look like Verdi! And mmmh okay I need to re-watch this asap.

I dream of finding a straight man who will beg me to go to the opera with him. Like that'll ever happen!

You and me both, you and me both..... where are all the cute straight guys who like opera? Where?
