cmvgor Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Getting closer. Again, the star character's name is always in the title. A rising (then) actress has one of the support roles, and a solid name actress plays the villainess he came out of retirement to face. Her character is named in the other end of the title.

metz44 Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 a very obscure film indeed,,lavender...great question!! The War Against Mrs. Hadley (1942 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavenderblue19 Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Yes smartie, *The War Against Mrs. Hadley*. Fay Bainter, Eddy Arnold, Spring Byington.Thanks for the compliment, I guess I should have posted this one in the obsecure thread. Interesting bit of trivia- In the film they are celebrating Fay Bainters character Mrs. Hadleys birthday, Dec7. On the radio they are announcing the Pearl Harbor attack. What's interesting is that in real life, Dec. 7 was Fay Bainters real birthday!!! TCM does not show the film very often, so glad that you recognized it. Great work metz, your thread.
