Kid Dabb Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Dame Mae Whitty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scsu1975 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Elsa Lanchester? Good guess, but no. It does look like her, though. This actress, like Ms. Lanchester, was not born in the United States. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJBeacon Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Marie Dressler? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scsu1975 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Neither Whitty nor Dressler, this actress was born later than those two. She made one silent film; the rest were sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scsu1975 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Anna Magnani No, she was not Italian. She shares the same country of birth as someone previously mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dabb Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 I've got one who is not as familiar.. Evelyn Laye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scsu1975 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 I've got one who is not as familiar.. Evelyn Laye The correct country of birth, but not Laye. This actress played more 'American' parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scsu1975 Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Recap: Born in England, not Elsa Lanchester, not Evelyn Laye. Made one silent film, the rest were sound. Played "American" parts. Next clue, and it's a biggie: She was nominated for an academy award. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJBeacon Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Lynn Fontanne?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scsu1975 Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Lynn Fontanne?? No, but that's a good guess and fits the clues. Fontanne was in her mid 40s when she was nominated. This actress was around 60 when she was nominated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LawrenceA Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Not her. Hint: the film for which she received her Oscar nomination also won someone else an acting Oscar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
