Azure Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 The Circus Yes, that's correct. Good job, Star. I still can't believe that he was able to turn out such a good movie even with all of those things against him. Truly amazing! Your turn, Star. Link to post Share on other sites
starliteyes Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Although the director won an Oscar for this film, he did not particularly care for it, feeling that it lacked passion. He did not think that the male star was the right actor for the part and did not get along with him and, in fact, never worked with him again. A supporting actress in the film, who won an Oscar for her role, went on record as saying that the male star was no fun to work with. Another actress who was also nominated for Best Supporting Actress played the male star’s mother and was in actuality only 12 years older than he was. Name the movie and the people involved, if you wish. Link to post Share on other sites

Azure Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 It's the 1976 version of The Blue Bird. George Cukor accused Cicely Tyson of using voodoo to curse the film. (How idiotic was that?!) Link to post Share on other sites
