With a response both accurate and fast, Bo Balder has won the grand prize in the Mashup Pop Quiz.

The question was: in my story Mashup, protagonist David learns that the name of his love interest is Sarah, and thinks, “Of course it is”. Who plays the male lead in the movie David is referring to here?

Admittedly, this is a very, very obscure movie reference, figureoutable only in the context of his earlier thoughts about his new gadget’s voice. The fact that another of my free online stories also refers to this movie might have helped a bit.

Anyway, earlier in the story David is thinking of an “oldies” (for him) actress, last name Connory or something, first name Jennifer. He means Jennifer Connelly, who played the female protagonist Sarah in the Jim Henson movie Labyrinth. In that movie, the Goblin King antagonist is played by David Bowie.

Congrats, Bo Balder! Enjoy your AnthologyBuilder gift certificate!

PS: Which other of my stories refers to the same movie?
