Very good so far, everyone. We still need #8 and #10. They were known more as comic book characters than cartoon characters.
-
You got it, Princess, and it's now your turn, but could you please tell us what movie it was from?
-
Can you identify these vintage animated characters? Some are easy, some maybe not.

Natalie Wood - Very good, Paulll. Welcome to the game. Your clues can be as clever or as simple as you like. Here's a simple one:

Fred Astaire and Rita Hayworth starred in two movies in consecutive years. In 1941 they were in "You'll Never Get Rich", and in 1942 they starred in " You Were Never Lovelier". "You'll Never Get Rich" featured music by Cole Porter. Fred had appeared on Broadway in a Porter show called "The Gay Divorce" and he had starred in the movie "Broadway Melody Of 1940" which featured Porter music. The song in question here is called "The Wedding Cake Walk" from "You'll Never Get Rich". It was sung in the movie by Liltin' Martha Tilton, who had been a big band singer with Benny Goodman in the late 1930's before embarking on a solo career in the forties.
Here is a hard to find clip:

What two unrelated MGM movies were shot consecutively and featured the same leading man, the same leading lady, and the same well known character actor in support? One of them was shown on TCM recently.
-
"The Most Dangerous Game" and "King Kong" were shot at the same time at RKO and used many of the same jungle sets. Fay Wray and Robert Armstrong were featured in both movies.

"Enter Madame"is the right film. It was Elissa Landi who is holding Cary Grant's arm. Cecilia Parker did indeed play Andy Hardy's sister, and the other fellow is Frank Albertson, who you may remember from "Room Service" with the Marx Brothers. Good job, everyone!
Let's give the thread to Peebs for the next posting.

Thanks, Peebs. Yes, I did miss the earlier posting. By my count, only #9 remains unanswered.
One of the actresses was in a "Thin Man" movie. The other actress worked frequently with Mickey Rooney.

A tiger has been terrorizing an area. Two men climb a tree and wait for hours in a rainstorm for the tiger to appear. It does and they shoot it.

Could #2 be Anita Bryant? I can't tell you the morning TV show she was on.

Very good so far, Peebs and Lavender. #1, 2, 4, 9, and 10 are still open. #1 is a little tricky because you can't see the face of the actress, but I think you can still tell who it is.
-
Here they are together. Can you tell the difference now?
Alan Sr. often had a mustache. Junior normally did not.

MilesArcher, I bet that was easy for you. 😊
Yes it certainly was. Now:

I guess everyone forgot about this thread.
#5 is Gloria DeHaven
#6 is Esther Williams
#9 is Ann Blyth
Now, we'll call this next series "Who's that with Cary Grant? Can you name the actors and actresses pictured with Cary Grant, as well as the movie they are making? Remember, several people worked with Cary in more than one movie, so look carefully.

It sounds more like "White Christmas" to me. Danny Kaye and Vera-Ellen pretend to be engaged, hoping that Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney will follow their example.

#1 might be Eydie Gorme. She sang with Tex Beneke's band and she was featured on Steve Allen's late night show.

Sorry, Peebs. It's not Nancy. Here are Nancy and Sluggo:
However, #10 did have her own comic book series at about the same time. She had a friend named Tubby.
