The Errol Flynn trivia was so much fun last week that I thought I'd mess with ClassicBecky a few more times. BTW Rick this is your last (gasp) free pass. Next week, it's for real.
#1. Errol did three World War II films with director Raoul Walsh. Name them.
#2. Which one had Alan Hale as a co-star?
#3. Besides Olivia De Havilland, this actress did three films with Errol. Who is she?
#4. Name the three films.
#5. Patric Knowles did two films with Errol . Name the films (I bet toto2 knows this one.)
Brain Buster #1: Patric Knowles was also in a classic Film Noir. Name the film. Name the two male and one female co-stars. Who was the director?
Brain Buster #2: What famous mid-50's/early 60's "TV dad" did a film with Errol? What was the film? Did they have any on screen time together?

I think I know most of these, but I'll defer to others for now. Well, I can't help it...I've got to answer Brain Buster #2. Fred MacMurray co-starred with Errol in DIVE BOMBER. I thought they shared scenes together, but now I'm not sure...
ReplyDeleteRick, that is one possible answer , but not the one I was looking for I'll give you half credit. BTW Fred and Errol and lots of screen time in Dive Bomber
ReplyDeleteHey, I should get 2/3 credit because Fred and the movie were right! Hmmm...I'll have to ponder this one. I do want to point out that Errol played Soames Forsyte in THAT FORSYTE WOMAN and John Forsyth was a popular TV dad in BACHELOR FATHER. I know that's not the right answer, but--phonetically--it's still kinda interesting.
ReplyDeleteFirst time in the Trivia Quiz category for me.
ReplyDelete#5 Patric Knowles and Errol Flynn were both in The Adventures of Robin Hood, Four's a Crowd, and The Sisters. #3 Bette Davis did two with Errol Flynn (Elizabeth and Essex and The Sisters)but that is not three.
Keep trying Rick .I forgot about John Forsyth in That Forsyte Woman, Which I did DVR but have not got to it yet. Anyway what are your complaining about? You still have a pass this week
ReplyDeleteToto 2 you left out one film that I was looking for . Bette is close but no cigar. Good try You'll get it.
ReplyDeleteJohn Forsyth wasn't in THAT FORSYTE WOMAN; I just thought it was interesting that his last name is similar to "Forsyte" and he was a TV Dad and Errol was in said film. I know...that's lame! But...I was reading about THE LORETTA YOUNG SHOW--inspired by Saz's post--and saw Hugh Beaumont was in several episodes. I looked up Hugh and...guess what?...Hugh was in OBJECTIVE, BURMA with Errol! That's kinda cheating, but, hey, I'm taking it.
ReplyDeleteTag me, toto2! Come on, reach out tag team partner! Got it! OK, Ann Sheridan was in three pics with Errol: DODGE CITY (the "bad" girl); SILVER RIVER; and...I'm spacing on the third, but it was a Western with Cuddles.
ReplyDeleteAnn was also in Edge of Darkness with Errol.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, toto2! I was thinking of Alexis Smith in SAN ANTONIO. Hey, we got all three together. Thanks, pardner!
ReplyDeleteYer welcome, Rick!
ReplyDeleteOk You two It's Alexis Smith, San Antonio is one, Gentlemen Jim, is Two and Rick, Dive Bomber is Three. Man what cheaters LOL.I'll give you bonus points for Ann Sheridan ,but she was not really the leading lady in Dodge City Olivia was.
ReplyDeleteHey, the question was: "This actress did three films with Errol..." It doesn't say "lead actress," so we're claiming victory with Ann Sheridan! (Still should have gotten Alexis, too...)
ReplyDeleteYada Yada Yada, OK but I gave you the other two Alexis films.
ReplyDeletePaul, sorry I didn't get in on this one until now. Been sick. I know that Alan Hale was in Desperate Journey with Flynn. Are the other 2 war movies Northern Pursuit and Objective Burma? My runner-up would be Edge of Darkness. That's the best I can do without looking it up. The other questions are already answered in a fun contest with Rick and Toto.
ReplyDeleteYou Go Becks. You got that one right.. Still more to answer and Rick only got 2 right(with help from Toto and me)
ReplyDeleteLet's recap!
ReplyDelete1. Becky was right. They're OBJECTIVE BURMA, DESPERATE JOURNEY, and NORTHERN PURSUIT (Errol as a Mountie!).
2. Becky was right here, too. Alan Hale was in DESPERATE JOURNEY and spit BBs at Nazis.
3. There are two possible answers with Ann Sheridan and Alexis Smith. I claim victory on behalf of Toto2.
4. Well, we did name Ann's movies.
5. Toto2 named three Flynn-Knowles movies. Patric was also in THE CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIDGE (and got the girl...Olivia).
BB #1: No one has answered this one yet!
BB #2: Fred MacMurray and Hugh Beaumont both work. Is there a third?
OK Rick I just watched Northern Pursuit last night. .Charge was the one I was looking for So What's Up with Brain Buster #1 ? BB2 You could also push for James Brown in Objective Burma. He is best known for playing Lt. Rip Masters a father figure on The Adventures of Rin Tin Tin, I would be OK with that. BTW he had lots of screen time with Errol
