[Oh, that face, that fabulous face II - Post 1950's. Whose is it?]

That's why it was unfair. But what is she?

 

Interestingly, in a way, Diahann Caroll is not a bad guess.

Receptionist: Now, where were you thinking of going?

Smoketoomuch: India!

R: Ah, one of our adventure holidays.

S: Yes. . .

R: Well, you'd better speak to Mr. Bounder about that. Mr. Bounder, this gentleman is interested in the India overland.

Bounder: Morning, I'm Bounder, of adventure!

S: Morning, my name is Smoketoomuch.

B: What?

S: My name is Smoketoomuch, Mr. Smoketoomuch.

B: Well, you'd better cut down a bit, then.

S: What?

B: You'd better cut down a bit, then.

S: Oh! I see, cut down a bit for Smoketoomuch.

B; Ha! Ha! I'm afraid you get people making jokes about your name all the time, ay?

S: No, no. . . .actually it never struck me before: Smoke. Too. Much. Ha! Ha!

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face II - Post 1950's. Whose is it?]

That would be right!

 

Ok, this one is unfair, but I'm an unfair guy:

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face II - Post 1950's. Whose is it?]

Um. . . .ok. . .

 

While I'm gone:

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face. Whose is it?]

twinkeee, you got her!

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face II - Post 1950's. Whose is it?]

Do you have an alarm bell that alerts you to new thread posts? How do you get 'em so quick? Yes, it's Mr. Morris.

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face. Whose is it?]

Oh my God!:

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face II - Post 1950's. Whose is it?]

Natch:

 

You watch game shows?:

[Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines (1965)]

Watched it as a child. I don't remember whether I liked it or not. All I remember is the Frenchmen making fun of Gert Frobe and the Germans. It spawned a wretched squel, whose name I will not mention.

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face II - Post 1950's. Whose is it?]

Nyah:

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face II - Post 1950's. Whose is it?]

Looks like you're right!

[Somebody Up There Likes Me]

The more you watch classic movies, the more you will realize the characters are stock roles: the flawed boxer hero, with ups and downs in his career; the low-key girlfriend/wife, loyal, stay-at-home; the corrupitng influencers, be they promoters, bookmakers, or evil women; the rough, tough, grizzled veteran of a trainer with a heart of gold. Stallone didn't have to use any one movie or role, just tap into the well-trod paths of movie storytelling.

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face II - Post 1950's. Whose is it?]

The dame's a Dame. It's her.

 

Ok, another easy one:

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face II - Post 1950's. Whose is it?]

Well, an easy one:

[Help me identify black & white movie that aired on TCM]

Do you remember when it aired?

[The African Queen what kind of camera movemen]

Would you be thinking of a crane shot?

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face. Whose is it?]

He does, indeed! as you correctly saw.

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face. Whose is it?]

Huh? What's going on here?

 

OK, let me spell it out clearly. The photo was of Bibi Andersson. She was a prtotogé of Ingmar Bergman, and starred in many of his films. She has nothing to do with the I Am Curious films, which Kid-Dabb thought I was referring to, but I wasn't. I thought KD was being coy and referring to the colors of the Swedish flag (are there any other European nations with blue and yellow as their colors?)

 

twinkee, you got it right, and you are the only one who did, kudos.

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face II - Post 1950's. Whose is it?]

>Kid-Dabb:

>I recognize her from The Good Life BBC series.

 

 

I knew the series as Good Neighbors. I suppose if I were an evil person, I would have used a pic of Penelope Keith, but then you would have recognized her, too.

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face. Whose is it?]

>Kid-Dabb:

>Flag colors..? I'll have you know those are from the titles of two of those Swedish films you alluded to

 

Ahem:

 

Yellow? Blue? What films?

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face. Whose is it?]

(Snork!) Huh, wha? Oh excuse me, dorpped off there. Yeah, that's her. The Kid was too coy, playing around with flag colors to get the credit.

[Oh, that face, that fabulous face. Whose is it?]

She's European. If I tell you the country she's from, youll almost instantly guess her. She was used a lot by a famous director of the country she's from, in fact, he gave her her start. Now you know her.

She's wondering if anyone's gonna guess her.

Oh, that came from scsu1975. But that's not important,
