Dothery Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 How in heavens name did you come up with her name ??? I need to know how your 'mind' works :0 I don't know how anyone else knew her name, but I knew instantly. She was the heroine in "Days of Glory," Greg Peck's movie, where he was a Russian rebel and she was the visiting ballerina in the bunker. There was a young man in that movie named Glenn Vernon whom I fell for and later met briefly. Saw him playing a bit part in "Columbo" ... a rerun of which I saw last night. I didn't recognize him, but the cast listed him, so I ran it back a couple of times. Still didn't recognize him. Ah, such is fame ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoraCharles1934 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I'm new to this thread. What is the etiquette around here? Can anyone post a photo for others to guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredCDobbs Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 >I'm new to this thread. What is the etiquette around here? Can anyone post a photo for others to guess? Yes, anyone. Usually the actor/actress should be from before 1950. No TV stars, just movie actors. Face or full length photo first. If no one gets it, then a clue or two might help.

DownGoesFrazier Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 But try to post someone more difficult to recognize than, say, Cary Grant, though those are the only ones that I seem to be able to identify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
