Name the Director

New:

Chris Columbus?

It is Chris Columbus, Claire, you're up.

That bottom shot looks like Renee Zelwegger and Vincent D'onofrio, which would make the film The Whole Wide World and the answer Dan Ireland?

Correct.

New:

No idea

Here's a scene from another movie directed by same the Oscar-winning director:

That doesn't help at all.

Delbert Mann, who won Best Director for Marty (not pictured), is who directed the movies captured in the first three. The stills are from Middle of the Night (with Fredric March and Kim Novak), Quick, Before It Melts (Robert Morse, Anjanette Comer, Janine Gray, and George Maharis), and The Pink Jungle (George Kennedy and Jim Garner).

You can say that again. The fourth still is from No Small Affair. That's Jon Cryer and Ann Wedgeworth in the pic. But that film wasn't directed by Delbert Mann. It was directed by Jerry Schatzberg, who took over before shooting started for Martin Ritt following a heart attack. Neither Schatzberg nor Ritt won an Oscar (Ritt's only nomination was for Hud).

So that one was a curveball.
