  1. Denholm Elliott was in Maurice with Rupert Graves.
  2. Two more with Mary Ure: Look Back in Anger (1959) Where Eagles Dare (1968)
  3. Not to mention Thelma Pelish! The Pajama Game is one of those rare Broadway shows that features almost the whole original Broadway cast in the film. In the main roles in the film, Doris Day is the only newbie, as Tab Hunter was in the other great Adler/Ross film, Damn Yankees. (In the film of The Pajama Game, Barbara Nichols, in the small role of Poopsie, replaced Rae Allen, but Ms. Allen did get to reprise her more substantial Broadway role as Gloria, the reporter, in Damn Yankees.)
  4. Suzanne Pleshette (who is a woman) was in Forty Pounds of Trouble with Phil Silvers.
  5. Faro-La, Faro-Li sung by Adia Kuznetzoff in Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1943) Next: Another song that starts with F
  6. Betty Field was in The Shepherd of the Hills with Marc Lawrence.
  7. "You Couldn't Be Cuter" -- sung by Irene Dunne in The Joy of Living (1938) Next: Song from a Cecil B. DeMille film
  8. "On the Banks of the Wabash" -- My Gal Sal (1942) Next: Another song about or mentioning a river
  9. I'd like to see the first version of The Lemon Drop Kid.
  10. Jason Robards was in The Night they Raided Minsky's with Joseph Wiseman.
  11. 4) Her final film, Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte featured her exquisite supporting performance as Jewel Mayhew.
  12. Journey to the Center of the Earth (1959) Next: Naughty business in a cave
  13. "So You Wanna Be a Boxer" -- Sung by Davidson Knight and chorus in Bugsy Malone (1976) Next: Another song about a sport
  14. Today's hint: Wife's Oscar nomination was for playing the mother in a film adaptation of an English novel. The year Wife was nominated, another film, with which Husband had an important connection, received a nomination for Best Actor for a very great and famous English actor. But both of the Oscars referred to were won by American actors from another movie.
  15. I don't think so, perhaps it's in the stories. I had the published stories at one time, but stupidly discarded them when I moved. The black eyes makes him look almost like a little boy out of a horror film! Here's the director examining his son's makeup.
  16. A few humorous little moments are provided by Tim Wellman, the director's nine-year old son, who has a very small role as a bell ringer. He looks quite demented when he's pulling those ropes!
  17. Thank you, so glad they're showing The Happy Years, a great film based on Owen Johnson's Lawrenceville Stories. I'm also pleased that The Green Years will be shown, although Charles Coburn is got up to look more like the Cowardly Lion than a Scottish grandfather.
  18. On Svengoolie tomorrow, November 13, 2021:
  19. Foreign Correspondent(1940) (Edmund Gwenn as Rowley, a would-be assassin.) Next: Another film with an unsuccessful murderer
  20. Barbara Nichols was in House of Women with Virginia Capers.
  21. Today's hint: Here's a clue to Husband's work. Husband was nominated for four Tony awards, winning one. He was not an actor.
