I think this test may be culturally biased. The last movie that I saw at a drive-in (along with y 7- and 4-year-olds) was Shrek. My 19 year-old-niece may be able to remember the wash-tub ringer from the first house her parents rented when they lived in New Zealand for a year when she was a pre-schooler.
