Toadfish Monastery

El Vampiro is correct.
I have never seen High School Musical, and it's not the one I was looking for

Still the large shadow of the killed Jew is cast over us us and the descent* to hell** remains open

*No, it's not The Descent
**also in the Humbleodeon

Everyone will gladly notice that I am not touching this with a 10 foot pole as I never get them correct and simply don't need the embarrasment.......

I'll stick to making New Years treats.

High School Musical was a bit of a guess. Just remember the Telegraph reviewer saying it was his idea of Hell, which was as near as I could get to the clue.

me 2 dum + lazy.

Not good at the film ones...

Maybe visiting the Humbleodeon occasionally will yield some answers.
What casts so large a shadow on your otherwise so brilliant minds, my dear siblings?

Is that the hint ?

Yes that is the hint but not towards "eccentric" mathematicians or pianists (i.e. the second half of what you marked is not part of the hint for #11)
Btw, I can't remember any theme music to the film.

In what part of the monastery is the Humbleodeon ?

  **********************

Aha ! I found it...haven't found answer for the quiz though...

the answer to #14 is on page 3
For the killed Jew you have to go with the title hints above.
the actual scene is: hero has a chat with a guard then walks outside the gate. Before he comes back, the guard changes and the new one does not speak Englsih, while our hero doesn't speak Hebrew. As a result he is taken for an intruder and shot.
Another hint: the lead actor blew up a factory in Norway in another movie (mentioned in Quiz #1)

Aha ! Cast a Giant Shadow !
