Also, I posted this one a ways back, and it didn't get guessed yet. So a clue: Early sound film from France. Comedy.

Fanny & Alexander! I know the second one is from the prologue, and I think the first one is from the fourth act, "Events of Summer", but I can't place the third one, except to say that it creeps me out every time I see it. I can't wait to see this on blu-ray.

Yes, you are correct.
