Good grid, but there was a mistake in the James Cameron group. Kathryn Bigelow directed point Point Break

@ Samaritan - he was executive producer not director, you’re right, thanks. I accept film/movie in general for this one, shouldn’t be any points lost.

3 of 4 in the oxymoron group aren't oxymorons.

There's nothing oxymoronic about a combination of bitter and sweet. Nothing about grief implies "bad" per se (not that that's what the expression means, but that's what is implied by calling it an oxymoron), and "acting" and "naturally" are not contradictory either.

" Night of the Proms"?? There is a Last Night of the Proms but not just Night of the as far as I know??

@Puzzled - I struggled finding “true” examples that sound normal today (Epicurean pessimist? No thanks). I guess these fall under the wider, looser comical umbrella. I apologise for unintentionally misleading you. Hopefully other puzzlers will get the gist, various keywords are accepted here. Thanks for the feedback as ever.

Point Break was directed by Katheryn Bigelow, not James Cameron

Ah- classic wordplay from jollycorpse! Excellent grid. I really don't see any problems with the oxymoron group, they work by definition. Things can be both bitter and sweet but they are still opposites (or enough for purpose). And if you're enjoying grief I think there are some specialist websites and services that cater for your type! ;)'

I got the oxymorons enough to know that is what you were doing.

True Lies is the only real oxymoron in the group, Bittersweet just about fits, Act Naturally is a big stretch and Good Grief is just wrong. I worked out that 'Group' once the time ran out, but as I've not heard any Dido songs except 'Life For Rent', it really scuppered me.
