  4. 1. The Diary of Anne Frank
    The Best of Everything
    Journey to the Center of the Earth

    2. George Stevens directed Diary
    Jean Negulesco directed Best of Everything
    Henry Levin directed Journey

    All three were made in 1959 so I am not sure which came first :)

    Happy Easter, Paul and all!

  5. Tom, sorry it's more than for. Toto, You Rock. I was only looking for George Stevens, and you gave me Jean and Henry too. DDiary was first then Journey and then Best, BTW my dad was a uncredited FX trouble shotter on Journry, Be designed and built the "Boulder" that braks loose and goes after Pat Boone. It was made from latex foam one of the very first in Hollywood. So Journey is a special favorite.

  10. OK it's time for a recap. Still need answers for # 3,#7, #9, and #10.

  11. Paul, that was fascinating to read that your father was both a WWII pilot and a special effects designer! It will make it extra fun for me the next time I see "Journey to the Center of the Earth." My guess for #7 is five.

    Paul and Dawn and anyone else on the west coast, did you suffer any damage from the quake?

  12. Toto, For # 7 would you believe five is too low? And No we did not suffer any damage other than the "normal" post quake feelings. BTW DR. Lucy Johnson at the USGS at Cal Tech said she did not even feel the quake ,but her son did.
