stooge Posted October 11, 2006 Ok, what actor played two real-life men who were convicted of selling secrets to the Soviets? The second was a TV movie, but since there really aren't a jillion movies made about real-life people selling secrets to the Soviets, I'm including this TV movie to make it a little more interesting. This is two separate films in which he starred. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stooge Posted October 11, 2006 Aftermath, did Martin Sheen play a second real-life person convicted of selling secrets to the Soviets? I'm not aware of one, and he's not the person I'm thinking of. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stooge Posted October 12, 2006 Ok, here's another hint: He won an Oscar at age 20. At the time, he was the youngest ever winner in his category. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stooge Posted October 12, 2006 Aftermath, I don't know of any film where Martin Sheen played Julius Rosenberg, so I'm not sure what role you're thinking of, but it's not him. And the role played was not Julius Rosenberg, but in an interesting twist, this actor did play the son of Julius Rosenberg in a third film, although it was a fictionalized version of the Rosenberg story, so the characters' names were not the Rosenbergs. Does that help? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdb1 Posted October 12, 2006 Is it Timothy Hutton? He was a traitor in "The Falcon and the Snowman" The character was Christopher . . . . Boyd? Boyce? And he played Aldrich Ames in a TV movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daneldorado Posted October 12, 2006 Hi Brooklyn... I'm not the OP, but yeah, Timothy Hutton has to be the correct answer. He played the son of convicted Soviet spies Ethel and Julius Rosenberg, in "Daniel" (1983). Dan N. http://www.silentfilmguide.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stooge Posted October 12, 2006 Judith is correct. It is Timothy Hutton. And Dan is correct about him playing Daniel. He won an Oscar as Best Supporting Actor for Ordinary People when he was 20. I believe he is still the youngest winner. You're up, Judith. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stooge Posted October 12, 2006 There was a TV show in the early 50's called Four Star Playhouse. The "Four Stars" were Charles Boyer, David Niven, Ida Lupino and Dick Powell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually, "Four Star" was also a TV production company, and a very lucrative one. Powell, Lupino, Niven and Boyer were the principals of that company. Very far sighted of them. Over to you . . . . .

stooge Posted October 13, 2006 Brad, Peter Fonda played Dracula in a film called Nadja (1994). I haven't seen it, and Netflix doesn't have it. There's a bunch of other people who've played Dracula too, but I just listed ones I thought were interesting/fun. Stooge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daneldorado Posted October 13, 2006 Okay, here's a quote you might have heard. Who said it and in what film? "Be this alive tomorrow."

Guest Posted October 14, 2006 Jennifer Lopez in Shall We Dance? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daneldorado Posted October 14, 2006 Nena wrote: "Jennifer Lopez in Shall We Dance?" Asolutely correct! This occurs right after she and the Richard Gere character have a private dancing session where they perform a steamy tango (to "Santa Maria"). Afterwards, she is out of breath with the passion of their dance, and she says to him: "Be this alive. Be this alive tomorrow." (For the competition he's entered.) Okay, Nena, ball's in your court.
