Well, you don't call yourself Lana for nothing, You've probably seen all the MGM movies of the '40's. Next up--Presenting Lana

This cinematographer was a genius at technicolor; so it stands to reason, that his home studio had the top reputation for their style of technicolor. Hint: The lady in the tuttifuitti hat.

Hooray for Hollywood! next: These two guys were MGM executives who didn't spend a lot of time worrying about scripts or story ideas. Their main jobs were covering-up any serious scandal--we're talking about felonies such as, murder or vehicular homicide here--that may have involved a major Metro star. Word was they knew where the bodies were buried and who really had committed the deed.

I can't find Barrie Chase with Gene Kelly--can you tell us what movie that was? All the others seem to be quite correct. Edited by: cujas on Apr 20, 2011 6:51 PM

While searching for the doctor, the escaped insane convicted murderer, decides to wait in a bar across the street. Very noir.

Truth of the matter is that I spent much of the summer reading a bio on Peter Lawford. I should have have remembered "Phoebe". But what I did remember was that he appeared in a "Lassie" movie and hated the dog very much.--Seems he didn't care that much for Asta either. Next: Lucy in Hollywood--she breaks into this star's house and pretends to be a bear rug. Shouldn't be too hard.

In this bombed out village, people of different classes have to share housing until the village is restored. Hint: Depardieu is one of several stars in the cast.

Yes, Rico, Rossi and Youngblood-- Fi's up--

yes--this actor was a champion clay pigeon shooter--I believe they call it Skeet Shooting.

I've watched *Heaven Can Wait* many times and it always makes me cry. *Ball Of Fire*--saw it once last month--so boring, had a hard time getting through it. But Allen Jenkins was very funny--thought the old codgers were boring and dated. The gangster angle was a bit cliched too. But, of course, the 2 Movie Stars shined throughout.

"It Only Happens When I Dance With You"--that was Astaire and Ann Miller's song and dance in *Easter Parade*. She was his dance partner when the movie opens. She goes off on her own--and they do another dance for old time sake at the top of the Wintergarden.

Rod Taylor was in *The Time Machine* with Alan Young. Edited by: cujas on Apr 18, 2011 3:34 PM

Niven co-starred in *Please Don't Eat the Daisies!* with Doris Day.

*Mr. Smith Goes To Washington* next: college scholarship

Dorothy McGuire was in *Three Coins in the Fountain* with Maggie MacNamara.

This film is about post-World War II France--where the Communist party is calling the shots in the villages where they successfully directed the Resistance against Hitler.

The girl goes to New York and gets a bit acting job through her hometown connection. But her real talent is singing.

Anne Baxter was in *All About Eve* with Celeste Holm.

Peter Lawford *The Thin Man*??

Dan Duryea was in *The Little Foxes* with Herbert Marshall.

"Over, Under, Sideways, Down, Backward, Forward, Square and Round"--I remember that from Jr. High--But I have trouble remembering my bank card number.

Yes Fi, it's all yours--

Very Hollywood Noir film
