slappy3500 Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 The Bowery Boys in "Dig That Uranium"? LOL not a REAL guess so someone else can take a shot. Link to post Share on other sites
classicsfan1119 Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 We have a winner! You got it, Dee...it was ARSENIC AND OLD LACE. This movie was issued in 1944, but the setting was 1941, in Brooklyn at Halloween. An almost immediate "flaw" was that the World Series wasn't being played at Halloween that year, as the movie would lead you to believe. And, in this movie was one of my all-time favorite lines, "Insanity runs in my family...it practically gallops!" Ok, Dee...it's up to you to start us off on the next round now, which is lots of fun in itself. Link to post Share on other sites
classicsfan1119 Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 And, Slappy...what kind of devilry were you up to there, you little stinker you? I can think of at least five people here who probably had this one the minute I said "Brooklyn", so thanks for giving someone else a shot youse guys (smile). Link to post Share on other sites

You up for it, Stigal? Go for it! And, Dee...thanks for a nice round! Link to post Share on other sites
classicsfan1119 Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 Stigal? Wouldn't you like to take my turn for the next round? If not, let me know and I'll put up another real "quicky" before retiring. Link to post Share on other sites
feaito Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 C'mon stigal...we want to play! Link to post Share on other sites
classicsfan1119 Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 Ok. Here's the deal. I guess Stigal isn't available, so I'm going to start one that I hope someone wins real quick because it's late in my day and I'm tired and I wanna go to bed! Once again, please pay attention to the rules of this game, and Good Luck! First Clue: This movie was called "Grand Hotel" at Sea by some. Link to post Share on other sites
feaito Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 The Poseidon Adventure? Link to post Share on other sites
classicsfan1119 Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 Close, but no Cigar, Feaito. Clue # 2: This movie was based on a Novel that was the only one she ever wrote. Her name was Katherine Anne Porter. Link to post Share on other sites
feaito Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 Ship of fools Link to post Share on other sites
classicsfan1119 Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 There you go, Feaito! You got it! Perhaps of interest: "Ship of Fools" received 8 Oscar nominations, but only took home two (Art Direction/Set Design, and Cinematography). And, Lee Marvin, who was wonderful in this movie was not nominated, but instead won that year for "Cat Ballou". Now it's up to you, Feaito, and the other night owls to keep this going until morning. Time for me to hit the sack. Link to post Share on other sites
