Enough time has gone by. The name I was looking for was STAHL. You all know Lesley from "60 Minutes", Richard was a character actor, and Nick was featured in "Terminator 3". Now:
Donna, Robert, and Rex
This should be easier.

I guess I should have watched "The Great Lie" again. Perhaps it would have helped with my memory of Mary Astor's book. Oh, and by the way, Eve is right again about Ernst Lubitsch and the two movies. Your turn, Eve!

Thanks, Eve. I remember reading "A Life On Film" years ago. Did you know that Mary Astor also did most of her own piano playing in the movie. She had taken lessons for years as a child. Now here is something that is a bit obscure. Walter Pidgeon and Douglas Fairbanks Jr. played the same role, eighteen years apart. The two movies had different titles and their characters had different names, but both films were versions of a 1920's Broadway play that had originally been filmed as a silent movie. The later film was also the last for one of Hollywood's more famous directors. What were the names of the movies?

The Great Lie? Mary Astor?

Are you Dina Merrill?

My last one was not Brooks. Who is Nick Brooks? I gave three names so that there wouldn't be much chance of another answer. Richard was a bald character actor who made a living playing sarcastic authority figures on TV comedies, Lesley is on TV almost every Sunday, and Nick is a young actor who was featured in a movie with the present California governor.

I believe you are going for the name Boone, although Richard and Pat were cousins. What, you can't see the family resemblance? Also, sometimes there is more than one correct answer to these names. Earlier, I posted Buddy, Fred, and Jean. The answer that was posted was Clark. I was unaware of Jean Clark, but there is an actress with that name. I was thinking of the name Rogers, Buddy, the actor and bandleader, Fred, the "neighborhood" guy on PBS, and Jean, the actress best known for the Flash Gordon serials. Now:
Richard, Lesley, and Nick
No, it's not Boone this time

Could it be "What Price Hollywood" in 1932 and the 1954 version of "A Star Is Born", both directed by George Cukor?

Edgar Bergen, Charlie McCarthy, and Mortimer Snerd - Congratulations, Eve. I could never figure out a clue for Mortimer Snerd when I posted Bergen and McCarthy some months ago.

Yes, it's Trigger. I guess I made it too easy with those last clues. If you have followed some of my old posts, you may have known that Olivia DeHavilland rode through Sherwood Forest on Trigger In 'The Adventures Of Robin Hood". My clue about being dead, but not really gone, was a reference to the fact that Roy Rogers had Trigger stuffed and put on display in his museum on California. I left out some clues like Trigger having natural blonde hair and being a vegetarian, or doing a scene in a movie where he shared a bed with Bob Hope, as he did in "Son Of Paleface". Oh well, I'll save those for another time. Now, finance, it's your turn.

Thanks, finance. Here's one some of you may know. I was never a top star, but I was well known. I was a supporting player for my entire career. In fact, some might consider me the ultimate supporting player. One of my first movies was an "A" list film where I worked with a young Olivia DeHavilland. Shortly after that, I moved to another studio where I became closely associated with an actor whose career in westerns was just about to take off, and I was a big part of his success. Over the years, we made dozens and dozens of westerns. I didn't just get by on my looks, although some think that I could have. I did most of my own stunts. By the early fifties, age and infirmities forced me to retire from the series, but my cowboy star continued on in both theatrical features and then television. I was replaced in the series by my own son, who bore a close resemblance to me. I have been dead for many years, but I am still fondly remembered by western fans of that era. I prefer to think that, although I am dead, I'm not really gone. Oh, and one more thing. In my entire movie career, I never uttered a word of dialogue. Do you know me?
