LuckyDan Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 You are correct, Dobsy. It occurs to me that there may have been more than one correct answer to the question as posed, since I've never seen any of the British segments. To avoid controversy, see the below link for my source. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0047708/trivia Over to you, FredC. Link to post Share on other sites
FredCDobbs Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Hmm, I don?t seem to have any Hitchcock trivia right now. Why don?t you do another one. You are better at this than I am. Oh, wait... I've got a simple one (I hope this one hasn't been done yet). A young British girl played the kidnapped daughter in the original version of "The Man Who Knew Too Much". A few years later she played the lead in a popular Hitchcock British film. What was the name of the film and who was the girl? Link to post Share on other sites
BallofFire Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 I believe that the girl was Nova Pillbeam and the movie was Young and Innocent (1937). Link to post Share on other sites

LuckyDan Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 Well done, Inglis! The other was Benji. But you have to come up with another Hitch question. I'm no Hitch expert, but with all the websites out there that talk about him, you'll have no trouble finding a little nugget of info to make an interesting question. Your go, Inglis.

duffylab Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Here goes: The soundtrack (background music) of "Rear Window" includes songs from other Paramount film productions. Name three of these songs and the films in which they were featured. Link to post Share on other sites
LuckyDan Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 "Mona Lisa" from Captain Carey USA "To See You" from Road to Bali and I can't name a third. Anybody else got it? Edit - Unless you will accept recycled soundtrack music from A Place in the Sun, though that's not a song.

duffylab Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 You're right on with your two answers, Lucky Dan. Hint: Two other songs from Paramount films are part of "Rear Window"'s soundtrack in instrumental versions. Hope this helps. Link to post Share on other sites
JackBurley Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 I believe one of them is Richard Rogers' "Lover", which is from Paramount's Jeanette MacDonald vehicle, Love Me Tonight... Link to post Share on other sites
MrWriteLA Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 And the other is "That's Amore" from "The Caddy." Link to post Share on other sites
duffylab Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 You are all right on! There is a fifth song as well: the theme from the western/ musical "Red Garters" which starred Rosemary Clooney and Jack Carson. I invite any one who contributed a correct response to jump in with the next Hitchcock trivia question. Nice work. Link to post Share on other sites
