Sisters Images game. The reboot

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

iesus - seems like a good answer...

but if not, then my guess is "get ahead, go figure, go ahead and pull the trigger"

Though actually, stufarq's clues are normally somewhat cryptic and the real answer probably doesn't have anything to do with guns...

Well it's not, so there! But it's getting closer to the right sort of thing.

Not as warm as iesus. This one's less cryptic than my usual. And I specifically chose that film rather than just anyone with a gun.
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.

No idea what the film is, but I'm going to guess "come feel the arms around you." - Arms

No, you're going way off target now.

Although it might help you get there quicker, you don't need to know what the film is. (It's Leon, by the way.) I just meant that film had specifically what I wanted for the picture. Look at the two people. One in particular. It's not what you'd expect to see.

I think I know this, but as I've done two of the last four I'll let someone else have a go.

Then my guess might be wrong. No-one else has said it yet, although the song has come up.

It might be the era that is close and the direction, i am not sure if it is train. There was no hint for the song :)

That's a good guess too.

A hint: the picture depicts Aristotle's natural motions of elements and celestial bodies.

Well, as guesses seem to be drying up, I might as well at least try mine - although I'm now pretty certain it's wrong. Anyway, it's

not my stupid turn killing the game. :lol: It's not YCBTO either.

Heavenly bodies was a clue. All celestial bodies, as well as other bodies composed of elements like fire and earth, have by their nature certain motions, and locations to which they must predictably travel.

Correct!

(The riddle could've loosely included the four lines Far beyond the black horizon / beyond the things you know / everybody got a destination / everybody got a place to go but just beyond the things you know lacked the idea I wanted.)
