Also, sorry my *"* and *'* marks all changed to weird squares-- they were once puncutation marks

I should have known the one time I already knew which one I wanted to vote for that it would be one that didn't count. I knew it was too easy. Well, pooh on *Kyle in Hollywood.* You would have gotten my vote. So if I can't vote for Kyle in Hollywood, it'll have to go to the other one I wish I wrote - *FILMLOVER* Mostly because for the last challenge I almost wrote a schedule for that exact week WITH a 100th birthday tribute to Ruth Hussey. I had to give it up for one in December because of the nature of that challenge, etc. So I'm so glad you, Filmlover, read my mind and did a tribute to her. Plus I love the tag team idea, British Cinema, and would love to see many of your premieres myself. (My brother saw Whistle Down the Wind at the TCM film fest and told me it was awesome, so I've been wanting to see that one myself). Plus, 39 Steps is completely essential.

filmlover-- cracking great schedule! and great choices for the 2012 film fest. BRITISH CINEMA FOREVER!!!

Uncle Remus - James Baskett in SONG OF THE SOUTH (1946)

Rock Hudson was in LOVER COME BACK with Doris Day

The Princess Bride Came COD next: day

Waverly, General - Dean Jagger in WHITE CHRISTMAS

Wow, too many great schedules to read right now, but skimming implies they are awesome

hlywdkjk-- AWESOME! Do you know how much I wish I wrote this one? I adore the Olympics and find this so fascinating. Olympia definitely needs to be shown -- haven't seen it in years. And how cool to show Olympians in acting roles. Cool! And Albert Finney is a worthy choice for SOTM. Awesome! (sorry I can't get all that weird coding off the post) Edited by: LonesomePolecat on Jun 30, 2011 1:42 AM Edited by: LonesomePolecat on Jun 30, 2011 1:42 AM

Nash, John - Russel Crowe in A BEAUTIFUL MIND

mudskipper got it-- your thread

Fedya, you're so good. Especially love the Hollywood rip offs-- so true. Great job.

Wow, is that really what it's called? I always assumed that tremendously fun and incredibly '60s song was called "highs and lows". But yes you're right, of course. Your thread.

Ismay, Bruce - Frank Lawton in A NIGHT TO REMEMBER (1958)

Next, identify song, singer, film with these lyrics: "Sometimes it's hot Sometimes it's cold But if it's hot or cold You learn to burn And then you freeze Love's like a circus And you're on a trapeze"

This classic MGM actor once appeared on an episode on (one of my favorite shows of all time) *I Spy* as a British agent whose last name was Rickaby-Hackaby (sp?). Who was it?

from "This is My Affair" (1937)?

Queen, Steve Mc

White, Mrs - Madeleine Kahn in CLUE

Fedya-- even TCM doesn't always start the day at 6am. I wouldn't worry about that so much. (I'm sure I never do)

Thanks for the correction. Most people there had never heard of him but he sucked in the audience within one number. Amazing guy.

I go to a LOT of summer concerts, and need a place to tell everyone about them. I'm not usually the only one who goes to summer concerts. So you all now have a place to write about them as well. Just went to my first Hollywood Bowl concert of the season: Wynton Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra. These people are amazing! They played Jelly Roll Morton, James Moody, and a piece from a Painter's suite about Monet. They are absolutely incredible--they all play multiple instruments and sing too. The first act was an amazing African jazz band with this incredible guy named Hugh Makela (I think...). Awesome!

Back to the Future

Kubelik, Fran - Shirley MacLaine in THE APARTMENT

It's true we really can't compare the Hugh Jackman Oklahoma with the movie because it is a filmed play. I definitely prefer the Susan Stroman choreography, though, in that, but I do love the cast in the film.
