Movie Buffs Associated - Gene Wilder Logic Puzzle

A five-member panel, determined by a ballot of members of the local Movie Buffs Associated at the Annual General Meeting, select a series of movies, starring a particular actor/actress, to be shown in the Municipal Offices function room each evening from Monday to Friday. The panel of Sally Boyden, Mark Thomson, Jessica Farmer, Laurie Davison and Mary Peters were re-elected for 2015.

Last week their choice actor/actress was Gene Wilder, and the films chosen - one per member - were Silver Streak (1976), The Producers (1968), Hanky Panky (1982), Another You (1991), and Sunday Lovers (1980). The films chosen were not respective, and neither were they shown in that order, nor in the order in which they were released. Showing time differed each evening. From this information and the following clues, for each member, can you determine who chose which film, the day on which it was shown, and at what time?

  • 1. Another You, which was the last of the women's consecutive days showings at 7:30 pm, was the choice of Miss Farmer.
  • 2. One of the women and one of the men each had a showing after 8:00 pm, one of which closed the week and the other at 50 minutes past the hour.
  • 3. Sally had the latest but not last showing with Hanky Panky.
  • 4. Silver Streak and The Producers were both shown on even-numbered days.
  • 5. Miss Peters' choice, the only 1960's release, was shown two days before Mark's, and at a time 35 minutes before Laurie's.
