mudskipper Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 They all played Army generals...Andrews more than twice...All three also played Navy admirals. Link to post Share on other sites
DownGoesFrazier Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 I'm not going to make an issue of this. I'll assume you're right, ms. What I was shooting for, and what the first clue suggested, was that all three played members of the police force in well-known noirs. Andrews in LAURA and WHERE THE SIDEWALK ENDS, Ford in THE BIG HEAT, and Mitchum in THE RACKET. Yours, ms. Link to post Share on other sites
mudskipper Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Dana Andrews played Brig. Gen. Walter Naylor in "The Devil's Brigade" , Gen. Williams in "The Satan Bug", and Gen. George C. Marshall in "Ike: The War Years"...Glenn Ford played Lt.Gen. Omar Bradley in "Is Paris Burning?"...and, of course, Robert Mitchum played Brig. Gen. Norman Cota in "The Longest Day". In "Midway", Robert Mitchum played Admiral William F. Halsey and Glenn Ford played Rear Adm. Raymond Spruance...Dana Andrews played Admiral Broderick in "In Harm's Way".... Thread open...

allaboutlana Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Did they all participate in Rheingold Beer's Miss Rheingold pageant ?? Link to post Share on other sites
mudskipper Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 "Rheingold Beer Girls"...of course they were, at one time or another.... I wasn't sure if Hope Lange and Grace Kelly were in it too. Arlene Dahl won and was Miss Rheingold Beer of 1946... Your thread, Lana. Link to post Share on other sites

allaboutlana Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 As it was late last night when I got on and I only noticed the top post, I didn?t even realize that cluny had posted. But you, lavender, gave me the answer I was looking for, that they all married, divorced, and got remarried to the same person! If you wish to give the thread to cluny, that?s up to the both of you. Again, thanks for playing! Link to post Share on other sites
