Ok. Here's my attempt.
1) Psycho, shower scene with Janet Leigh.
2) Blofeld and his white Persian Cat, played by Donald Pleasance (as Blofeld. Not the cat), I think in You Only Live Twice.
3) Willie Wonka nd the Chocolate Factory, with Gene Wilder.
4) Gone With the Wind, with Cary Grant and Scarlett O'Hara, although Frankly, My Dear, I don't give a damn!
5) Rocky III, with Mr T and Sylvester Stallone.
6) Toughy. The Fugitive? Although think it may be a cowboy film or maybe Butch and Sundance. Just guessing.
7) Sound of Music with Julie Andrews.
8) My Fair Lady, with Audrey Hepburn as Eliza Doolittle.
9) Around the world in 80 days, with David Niven as Phileas Fogg, and the oft forgotten Cantinflan as Passepartout (Did he ever star in anything else?)
10) Casablanca,with Humphrey Bogart as Rick and Ingrid Bergman as Ilsa.
And the winner is?
Casablanca and 'You played it for her, you can play it for me. Play it.!' by Dooley Wilson. A Classic...

Cantinflas? Big star. You don't have to speak Spanish to enjoy this one:
