When their Broadway plays, *West Side Story, The King and I, My Fair Lady* were made into films, they didn't reprise their roles? And, I believe all the leading actresses had to be dubbed.

My first reaction when I read this was one has to be Doctor Dolittle, 20th Century Fox. That's all I have for now, and I will be away from the computer for the rest of the day. Anyone can finish this answer and/or take the next turn.

I couldn't decide this morning if I wanted to let it take as long as it takes or just tell, but since you gave a guess and listed two of the films I was talking about. I'll give you the thread and tell you they were among the first instances of nudity (for movie stars) in films. Kirk's was in The War Wagon and There Was a Crooked Man.... I would have mentioned Deborah Kerr for The Gypsy Moths, but a double was used. Your thread. Thanks for playing.

Hint: What happened in each instance may have surprised some people at the time.

*Shane, 3:10 to Yuma, Airport, East Side, West Side, The Strange Love of Martha Ivers, B.F.'s Daughter, Green Dolphin Street, Johnny Eager, The Three Musketeers*
Mmm..yes, I am Van Heflin.
By the way, I'm sure you know his sister played Susan Lucci's mother on AMC.

3. Lana Turner is wears white throughout the film.

Etienne Girardot, *Twentieth Century??*

You got it. Your turn.

That's not what I was thinking about. Kirk did it in 1967 and 1970. Charlton Heston in 1968, and Burt Lancaster in 1968.

Not that one either.
3. He buys a movie studio and gets in the moviemaking business. Meanwhile, his ex/stepmother, goes into acting.
(This has been on TCM, but not recently.)

10. The film was shot in black and white, because Wilder thought the makeup used by Lemmon and Curtis would be too garish.
Next: *The Postman Always Rings Twice*

No. it's not that one.
2. His girlfriend went after his dad, became his stepmother, and now she is a widow.

Thanks.
1. During a heated argument with his son, a man has a fatal heart attack.

Marion Lorne, *Strangers on a Train* and Bewitched's Aunt Clara

Thanks.
Here's three:
Kirk Douglas
Burt Lancaster
Charlton Heston
General hint to get started: It's something in their career, not personal.

Then it must be that they all had some of the longest-running marriages in Hollywood, but with Norman Lloyd leading the pack with 75 years..

Yes. She was tv's "Julia," Oscar-nominated for *Claudine*, seen last night, was on "Dynasty" and "A Different World" in the 80s and most recently has been on "Grey's Anatomy" and "White Collar." Your turn.

They were all dubbed by Marni Nixon. I was just going to add it, as an afterthought, and saw you had already responded.
