coffeedan Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Greetings, everybody! My morning was spent at the dentist's office, where I had the rough edges taken off a chipped molar until I can get it properly fixed tomorrow. I had the rest of my teeth cleaned, too. And my right leg has been wrapped up again due to a resurgence of leg ulcers (possibly an infection, my doctor said, as he took a tissue sample for analysis). As a result, I spent most of this past weekend in bed getting caught up on all the movies I've taped off TCM in the past few months. That alleviated much of the pain without drugs of any kind. Thanks, TCM! And now, on to this week's movie trivia . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeedan Posted November 21, 2005 Author Share Posted November 21, 2005 Monday's question: Leslie Howard played the part of Romeo in the 1936 film adaptation of Shakespeare's ROMEO AND JULIET -- and in what other film? Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
path40a Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 As an actor in It's Love I'm After with Bette Davis and Olivia de Havilland ... tricky, tricky dan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moviejoe79 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Hey coffeedan! I hope you feel better soon! As for the question, the movie was "It's Love I'm After," with Bette Davis playing Juliet, since their characters are both stage actors in the movie. And it's a pretty funny movie at that.
