I declare this thread is open to any and all comers.

Bingo, Lana!--That's very good.
I just saw "Return to Peyton Place" yesterday. It was ok--Sterling was his handsome self--but the movie really missed your Lana.
Our Lana is up--
-
Lena sang *The Lady Is A Tramp* in "Words & Music", in which Judy Garland also appeared.
-
The biggest number in The Beach Boys Live Concert album in '64 was Denny singing "The Wanderer". Do you remember this record?

*Bright Leaf*

Do you want to answer the whole question?

"Written on the Wind"

I really liked Dino in *Some Came Running*, directed by Vincente Minnelli.

no--a real dancer who was trained professionally.

John McIntire was in "The President's Lady" with Susan Hayward.

Whatever you're thinking or looking for--this is a correct answer.
-

no--
Hint--this was a musical star who primarily danced.

Yes, Tommy Rall, who was my best friend's tap instructor.
Skipper on board!

Joseph Mankiewicz because he addressed women's issues in such films as "All About Eve", "The Barfoot Contessa" and "A Letter to Three Wives". He wrote his own scripts, and the women in his movies are often seen to be career oriented and not afraid to say so.
Also, he promoted women actresses and gave them leadway in his projects. He was very instrumental in the start-up of Thelma Ritter's career. At the time the studio lost Colbert for "Eve" and they settled on Davis, a number of people warned him not to use her. (including her former director Edmund Goulding) But he sensed that her career was at a crossroads and he felt that he could work with her despite her reputation and the warnings.

This musical star went on from "Button up Your Overcoat" on Broadway to
"?"( legendary songs and musicals) in Hollywood during the 30's and 40's.
Can you name this Movie Star and the famous films/songs associated with her/him?

This is bizarre and exactly the same time--
Yes, it's a a tie--and I can say twice to Metz and Fi--that's not the answer I was thinking about. But you're both right.
If Metz--doesn't want it--I guess it goes to Fi--
Happy Easter!

You're so hot, I can't give you another hint!

Are foreign movies any movies not in English or just movies filmed outside of the USA?
Since most of our Great Hollywood film directors from the Golden Era were born outside the USA and could barely speak English--maybe those "foreign directors" should go on your list too!
Directors like:
Michael Curtiz--"Casablanca" & "Mildred Pierce"
Billy Wilder--"Sunset Boulevard", "Double Indemnity", "Some Like It Hot", "The Apartment" etc, etc
And our personal "foreign director" favorite Alfred Hitchcock--he was born in England, his parents were Irish and Cockney--"Psycho", "The Birds", "Rebecca", --and I guess we'd have to count all those films he made in England as really being foreign too
"The Man Who Knew Too Much"
"The Lady Vanishes"
"39 Steps" etc etc
Now Let's go a step forward--maybe we need to look at all the actors who were not born in the USA --they're foreign too, aren't they?
Ingrid Bergman
Greta Garbo
Cary Grant
Bob Hope (yes, Bob Hope)
Basil Rathbone (There goes Sherlock Holmes)
Elizabeth Taylor ( oh, take her off, she was born in England but her parents were American)
Leslie Howard
Olivia de Havilliand
Vivien Leigh--(There goes "Gone With the Wind"
Hedy Lamar
Marlene Dietrich
I've got to let the dog out--but somebody else can continue. Please don't forget The Beatles, Peter Sellers, Laurence Olivier, Richard Burton, Peter O'Toole, Richard Harris, Anthony Hopkins and Richard Dawson. (Audrey Hepburn, Julie Andrews, Leslie Caron--oops--there goes My Fair Lady, The Sound of Music, Gigi and Mary Poppins!)
Happy Easter!
