Movies as Emoji

Continuing the discussion from Kyle "Paul Atreides" McLachlan explains Dune with a single tweet:

Where Mr. McLachlan has lead, we shall follow—describe a movie or two!

Difficulty: Use no letters, numbers, syllables, or ideographs (except those that appear incidentally within a symbol used for other purposes). And try to use each symbol once at most.

Example:

:princess::skull::mount_fuji::chart:♫:policeman::+1::yin_yang::evergreen_tree::leaves::ocean::european_castle::lips::coffee:️🂫:maple_leaf::dollar::gun::crescent_moon:▨:japanese_ogre:

Twin Peaks (ETA: yeah I know it’s not a movie. Fire Walk With Me?)

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

I know, not a lot of detail, but at least it’s pretty unambiguous.

One of my All-Time Top 10 favorites. Had to speed-read through the script to get the juror #s and order of 'not-guilty’s correct. Now I want to watch it again.

this was the obvious solution (and I never thought someone would invest the time to actually write a reply). a more crpytic answer would be Trollhunter - the hunting trolls part should be easy, and the Norwegian scenery looks endless to my city-boy eyes.
