That's cuz Louis never met ME! (Thanks for posting these, mongo. I always enjoy them.)

True that, hibi. It warrants one of those "extra wide load" signs that the 18-wheelers use for modular homes!

Isn't he the guy that Jonathan Pryce rescued in "Brazil?"

Have we mentioned the wonderful Ralph Richardson in "Fallen Idol?"

OK, here's a BIG juicy clue: One of the stars featured in the film also directed it. Edited by: dpompper on Mar 19, 2013 7:48 AM

<You're on a roll, dpompper> Nah, I've just seen too many movies. (If there is such a thing.)

"Network"

"Happy Accidents" (2000)

Yeah, like four of the five kids living at the next farm over have decided to turn their yard into a BMX trail. It's the dad's fault for bringing in truckloads of dirt. The kid who's not on a BMX bike is on a three-wheeled whatever-they're-called. Constant noise even after dark. Nothing I can do about it out here in the country.

. . . rather than the obvious . . . "The Producers" child playing ball

"Sunset Boulevard" ?

Unlike Cary in "Penny Serenade," THIS guy got MUCH more than he bargained for.

I recognized those lovely eyes right away . . . Terence Stamp is my fantasy.

"Billy Budd" lamb

Terence Stamp

Sorry, gummball, try again. The film is a drama. Most of the action takes place in California, with someone taking a side-trip to Florida. Someone broke the law. Three heavy-hitting lead actors.

"Journey to the Center of the Earth" crutches

More clues: There's lots of travel going on in this film by bus, airplane, taxi, car. There's eating Chinese food and making whoopie, too. Business dealings provide a backdrop. It all ends by talkin' to the judge.

Speaking of butlers . . . has anyone yet mentioned the talented Glenn Close as "Albert Knobbs" (2011)? Six times nominated for an Oscar and yet to win. She's joked that often she's confused for Meryl Streep "except on Oscar night."

LOL . . . Earlier, I just didn't consider the full meaning of "deserted!" Clues: Children, big secret, bus tour Edited by: dpompper on Mar 18, 2013 10:05 AM

I used to confuse Illeana Douglas with Allison Janney.

"Miracle in the Rain"

"The Time Machine" . . . was inspired to re-screen "Ben-Hur" last night. It'd been 40 years since I first saw it . . . had picked up the 4-disc DVD set for $1 a coupla years ago and had never watched it. It all came "flooding" back.

Anne Francis ?
