Movie identification

[edit]

What's the title of the movie starting at 0:40? Thanx. 93.174.25.12 (talk) 21:31, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The one with the hooker starting to seduce a young lad? ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots21:40, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yep. 93.174.25.12 (talk) 21:52, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It's written right there in a caption. And she's not a hooker. --Viennese Waltz 22:00, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
What does the caption say? Looks like both the OP and I missed it. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots22:07, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The caption comes up several seconds after the 40 second mark. The clip has moved on to another scene from the film which adds to the confusion. The film is Leone's Once Upon A Time in America. The girl is Peggy and is a neighbor (schoolmate?) of the boys and is showing off her cootchie (insert your own slang term here) to one of the boys. MarnetteD|Talk 22:56, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"Insert here"? Funny way to put it. Is it reasonable to assume that films in which a child "seems to be" exposed to adult naughty bits, that it's a cinematic/editing trick, and that the child actor is simply presenting whatever reaction the director said to do? ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots15:40, 24 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Never having seen Leone's Once Upon a Time in America, I wondered for a moment what scene in Leone's Once Upon a Time in the West could be so described, even loosely. —Tamfang (talk) 21:09, 24 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
