Nope...It's a literal translation, just like the rule says.

Here's an easy one: A CHORUS CAME (one word)

An honorary ritual at the Big Apple...

First lines from a famous historical movie adapted from a novel: " Of the people of Antioch, only a few would have known what you were talking about had you told them that a crucifixion in Jerusalem only twenty years before would soon change the course of the world they knew. They prefer to leave politics to Rome, religion to the gods, and history to the historians, because history is what happens to others, not to ourselves..."

PRISONER OF ZENDA (What happened to "The" ?)

No....another performer.

Yes it was, appearing as a train conductor in "Woman Haters" with the Three Stooges....Your thread.

Ha! Ha!...WAG here too...About a year ago, I ordered the Budd Boeticher/Randolph Scott western set of DVDs from Amazon. In the movie "Buchanan Rides Alone", I remember LQ Jones, who was one of the villain's henchmen, saving Randolph Scott's life, because he was a Texan, by shooting one of his own friend and co-workers... After he buries him, he recites this eulogy...That's the only scene I remember from that movie...

That is correct Edythe...Boxing Day in Britain is the day after Christmas. They call it Boxing Day because that's when the employers give their employees the day off and give them boxes of gifts to take home.... Sadly, that was the day in 2004 when Sir Richard Attenborough's eldest daughter and grandaughter died during the tsunami while vacationing in Thailand.... Your thread...

NEVER ON SUNDAY Next--Three words: U USE HER HOOFS

Clue:...Bug-eyed performer and singer..

Clue: ...This actor/director has a younger brother who is a well-known host and narrator of several documentaries...

Clue: Supporting Oscar winner...several times.

Alright Flash, Your turn...

"The Kremlin Letter" by John Huston ?

You would think so, but this is a much earlier movie...in black and white...

Clue:...Song and movie are from the thirties...and the singer was very popular during that era.

John Derek it is...Your thread, Lavender.

" Mad? Mad? Hannibal was mad, Caesar was mad, and Napoleon was surely the maddest of the lot ! Ever since time began, they've called mad all the great soldiers in this world !..." Movie? Speaker?

This British actor once said, "Boxing Day of 2004 is the worst day of my life". Who is the actor? What is Boxing Day ? And what was the reason for his statement ?

Which Oscar winner used to raise pineapples in Guatemala before he became an actor, and later appeared in a Three Stooges short ?

"The Chairman"

"The Long Ships" with Sidney Poitier as Prince Aly Mansuh probably telling Richard Widmark as Rolfe, the Viking...

Thanks...Here's a philosophical song that offers advice on how to live: "... This funny little world, like the rhythm of the wheel, Keeps on rumbling, mumbling, and grumbling along. Here is some friendly advice If you're in the mood to mourn, Just take that chip off your shoulder, That frown from your face; Let a chuckle replace every care. You can give your sorrow a merry old chase, With a healthy sense of humor, You're a millionaire..." Singer ? Movie ? Edited by: mudskipper on Oct 28, 2012 9:28 PM

I don't have anything right now...Daisysmama can have the thread if she wants it, otherwise it's open...
