Everyone's having the same problem, antarcticexile has some suggestions I'll have to try. In the meantime, Clue #4 - a widow with three boys

Not Pat and Mike ... hey, I'm finding it nearly impossible to logon these days so I'm sorry if anyone was waiting for the next clue. Since I'm on now, I'll offer: Clue #3 - a new life for a widower

Clue #2 - playing tennis

Yes, that's the one! It's really something special! I also caught a lot of the other great Ealing films (many starring Alec Guinness) during the TCM special showings as well. I really liked The Lavender Hill Mob, The Man in the White Suit, the Passport to Pimlico, and the Ladykillers too! Of course, the last two also star Stanley Holloway whom I just saw last night in My Fair Lady ... excellent, excellent, EXCELLENT!!!

No worries;-) BTW, I had the same trouble, so I stopped using IE and switched to Netscape ... seems to have resolved the issue for the moment anyway. Clue #1 - bicycle riding

I know very little about her and only just "discovered" her (and Merle Oberon) when I saw These Three about a year ago. Subsequently, I've seen her in The Smiling Lieutenant, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (interesting pronunciation of Jekyll too;-), Trouble in Paradise, Design for Living, The Old Maid (with Bette Davis), and The Children's Hour (remake of These Three). I have to say that I've enjoyed these movies, and have no idea what Bette Davis said about her (something was inferred in another post?), but she seems to have been a solid actress. I just found out from imdb something I didn't know before ... she was born in Bainbridge, GA ... not to far from here;-)

The Ghost and Mrs. Muir?

The best source I've found for this type of information is imdb.com. However, I couldn't find a person with the title "singer" in this list: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0034798/fullcredits Perhaps you remember the name of the character? If so, maybe you can find the singer in the list. Good luck.

Beat the Devil?

I'm afraid I might be guilty, in part, for the "tension" associated with this game. After an initially furious pace, particularly late last week (?), the game "tailed off" to nothing and I tried to "revive" it by posting that the game is still fun and can still be played at a slower pace ... that it was O.K. by me if a clue stayed out there for a while etc.. Well, I like the game both ways. I love to play coffeedan's trivia but find one question or "test" per day (even two) to not be enough on some days that I've got a lot of free time;-) And, when I'm free, I like to get clues and guess every 10 minutes or so. In either case, let's not let this game die, O.K.? Also, since I will have spotty availability today, I will NOT be a cluegiver at this time. Anyone else want to start a game? ... now that we're all in agreement;-)

stlgal reminding me of my youth ... I went to CHS, so the Varsity was just a short drive for us EVERY Saturday night ... though I only participated a few times;-)

I got this off another website and thought it was interesting ... adjusted for inflation: #1: Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs (1937) with $610.5 million #2: 101 Dalmatians (1961) with $589.0 million #3: Mary Poppins (1964) with $520.8 million #4: The Jungle Book (1967) with $484.6 million #5: Fantasia (1940) with $465.0 million #6: The Lion King (1994) with $419.1 million #7: Sleeping Beauty (1959) with $406.9 million #8: Bambi (1942) with $394.2 million #9: Pinocchio (1940) with $377.5 million #10: Cinderella (1950) with $349.9 million #11: Lady and the Tramp (1955) with $312.0 million #12: Finding Nemo (2003) with $309.9 million #13: Aladdin (1992) with $293.3 million #14: Song of the South (1946) wiht $288.6 million #15: Toy Story 2 (1999) with $271.0 million #16: Shrek (2001) $267.7 m $267.7 million #17: Peter Pan (1953) with $255.5 million #18: Monsters Inc. (2001) with $249.9 million #19: Toy Story (1995) with $247.0 million #20: Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988) with $213.1 million This data is a few months old, e.g. Nemo could have moved up the list quite a bit, and don't forget that many of the older films have been rereleased many times to "inflate" their numbers disproportionately.

Well you had me completely stumped yesterday, stlgal! I haven't seen it and it sure sounds like it has a lot of interesting plot points;-)

I Married an Angel?

The Petrified Forest?

Here's another forgotten topic I'll try to breathe some new life into;-) Unfortunately, since I think most older films are great, my guilty pleasure film is not old enough to really be included in this thread. However, I'll tell you what it is anyway ... Die Hard (1986) with Bruce Willis. The first sequel is O.K. too, but the 2nd sequel really stinks! However, Die Hard (the original) is my guilty pleasure ... I never tire of watching it and USA Network never tires of showing it either;-)

Yes, you got it stella! Your turn ...

Nope, Clue #2 - Ashamed of who she is

O.K., since it really WASN'T my turn, and no one appears to be here at the moment to play, I'm logging off for a while ...

O.K., I'll start a game if anyone is around that wants to play ... Clue #1 - a special recipe

In looking through some of these older topics, I thought I'd "revive" this one to highlight one of my favorites (which is both British and involves royalty): Kind Hearts and Coronets (1949) - in fact, there are several great Ealing Studios films which were featured on TCM within the past year. I hope they show some of these Alec Guinness classics again sometime soon!

Robin Hood?

Klute ;-)

Yup, wtg venerados ... you're up;-)

Not Shane this time;-) And, FYI, I'm not quite a 4.0 player yet. Since I don't play USTA, I really don't know for sure. But, I'm likely a 3.5 player at most. Clue #6 - A glue factory
