MilesArcher Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Thanks, finance. Irene Dunne once sang a song in blackface in a movie. Can you name the movie and the song? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudskipper Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Irene Dunne sang "Gallivantin' Around", playing a banjo and backed up by several black-faced performers in "Showboat"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesArcher Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Yes. that was the 1936 version from Universal Studios. That number was not included in the MGM remake in 1951. As hard as it might be to imagine Irene Dunne in blackface in a minstrel show, it would be even harder to imagine Katherine Grayson doing it. Well, you're hot today, mudskipper. It's your turn again.

DownGoesFrazier Posted September 1, 2010 Author Share Posted September 1, 2010 During the shooting of this film, an actor asked the director, "What is my motivation in this scene?" The director responded, "Your motivation is your salary". Film?

Poinciana Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Red River? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownGoesFrazier Posted September 2, 2010 Author Share Posted September 2, 2010 Not RED RIVER. This film was the only time a famous actor worked with a famous director. They did not get along well, and the results showed. This was one of the famous director's more poorly received films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allaboutlana Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Then my next guess is Peck in The Paradine Case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownGoesFrazier Posted September 2, 2010 Author Share Posted September 2, 2010 No, I assume you guessed Monty because he had a "method" background. Well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allaboutlana Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 I know. Exactly. This is my last wild guess for now: Farley in Rope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownGoesFrazier Posted September 2, 2010 Author Share Posted September 2, 2010 Sorry. Think of a later Hitchcock film. Remember that the actor was a BIG star. Edited by: finance on Sep 2, 2010 11:01 AM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFKane1982 Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 It has to be Torn Curtain (1966) which is arguably Hitch's very worst (although his worst is still a lot better than a lot of directors best) It had two huge stars in the film Paul Newman and Julie Andrews.

cmvgor Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 ...Holding Sixes' place until he gets back: Late 1960s. A woman writer, with a string of successful sex novels behind her has decided to stop writing. Publishers send a male writer to France to finish her last book. Sidline: He smuggles the workings for some Swiss watches _into_ France. There's a homicide. Police _and_ Badguys trying to track them down.

cmvgor Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Another writer, previously sent on the book project, is a women, a stunning redhead. Seems that, when younger, she mastered martial arts to be able to defend aganist men. Then she found out she _likes_ men. But she is helpful when those interested in the smuggling project catch up with them. Tall and leggy, she is hilarious in the way she daintily lifts the hem of her miniskirt to deliver a high kick to a Badguy's chin. (1633) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmvgor Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 On the plane to Paris, the writer meets an attractive American actress, who winds up involved and running with him in the mess he gets into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
