The Synonym Game
#1
The Synonym Game
The idea is to take the name of a book or a film and translate it into appropriate synonyms.  For example, 'The Dimly-Lit Cavalier' would be 'The Dark Knight' and 'A Story Of A Pair Of Metropoli' would be 'A Tale Of Two Cities'.  But you should identify what general category you're trying for.  Guess right and you have the next go.

(film)  Washbowl Canines

You got it.  A reservoir doesn't have to be any particular size. The ink tube in your Biro is a reservoir.
