Smart Kid. Not too much info on her. I encountered her and her wonderful voice watching the two movies she made with Paul Robeson. She appears to be the English equivalent of Josephine Baker, although forgotten here today. I don't know about her continuing fame in England.
Are you smart enough for this? (yes you are):

Bingo! you get the prize! What did you do, search black movie singers?
-
Just tried it with Shoes of the Fisherman, still restricted. And it appears to be only TCM. I can record on other channels.

I just tried to record Blow-Up on my DVD and I got a message saying: "This program is not allowed to be recorded." !
I have never previously been unable to record anything off my cable signal. Does anyone know what's going on? Of course, it's too late now for this.

Perhaps, but as the record shows, it doesn't take much to get the conservatives to go adventuring around the world. In fact, most times it doesn't take anything, or if there isn't anything, they'll be so kind as to make someting up to fill the need.

The singing is right, but the countries are wrong.

No, not either. But Josephine Baker is on the right track in some ways.

Yes! That's her!

Thanks for your post. We get so little direct communication about important people in film. It's refreshing.

The Reaganistas didn't have any trouble.

You got him. But can you guess what movie the pic is from?

Nobody has a clue. Do you have any?

Well, you may just be able to run this whole thread yuself. But I will say you got Miss Lisi, if'n you don't mind.
But who is this?:

Hard to think that Royal Wedding, which has two of Fred Astaire's most famous dances, and a famous duo of him with Jane Powell, not being the equal of Bandwagon. Even harder to think Seven Brides, with the most famous dance and fight sequence, not the equal of any musical. Hardest to think that directing what is considered the best musical of all, Singin' in the Rain, doesn't rank him with any director, anywhere, any time.
-
Hard to find any director who's made more than a handful of movies that didn't make at least one that was nothing home to write about.
-
And that's wrong because. . . .?
In any case, you only write that to cover the fact that you don't know who it is.

Ohh. I'm in love. . . .

Bette Davis made an appearance on It Takes a Thief.

I will have to scour Indian films to find an actor you can't id. Yes, it's him, the token American in French films.

I thought I was scrounging in the farthest coreners of filmdom, but you got her!

What should be the title for the next Die Hard movie?

We should face up to the inevitability of this series continuing indefinitely: The Die Hard is Cast.
