Trivia Time - Part 34

Trivia Time is being posted one day late due to Internet issues. I apologize for any inconvenience and thank you all for your patience! Next week we should be back to normal (I hope!).

Who Am I? We have made four films together, two for the same director. One of these films was the debut for the younger of the two of us. In addition, in one film we played brothers, and in another movie one of us played a priest and the other played a murderer. Who are we?

#1. Who were two of the best known movie brides of 1946? (Hint: one of them appeared in two films with the younger actor, and one film with the elder actor from the "Who are we?"s.)

#2. Who were the male and female stars in Deborah Kerr's first film?

#3. Name the film.

#4. What future Oscar-winning director was the Assistant Director (AD) on #3?

#5. Name four films starring Deborah Kerr and David Niven.

#6. Which of the films in #5 also starred the actress from #2?

#7. Who played Sir Thomas More's wife in Man for All Seasons?

#8. Who played Sir Thomas More's daughter in Man for All Seasons?

#9. What was the name of the Nobel-prize-winning trilogy that was the basis for a British mini-series in which the actress from #8 starred? Who was the author?

#10. Which actress played Ann Boleyn in Man for All Seasons?

  2. Hi, I'm JoAnn, Paul 2's wife. Paul is otherwise occupied at the moment with our daughter and asked me to respond.

    Rick, congratulations, that's the right answer for #8! Tom, that's a good guess at Who Am I, but James and Pat actually made at least 9 films together. You are correct on #7 though...it was Wendy Hiller!

  10. Who Are We: Spencer Tracy and Mickey Rooney? If it's not those guys, then I give up.

  11. Tom, that's a good guess, but, as far as I know, Spence and Mickey never appeared together in a movie as brothers, and they made at least 5 movies together.

    JoAnn says don't give up yet!

  12. Frank Sinatra and Fred MacMurray?

    ReplyDelete
  13. Sorry, Tom, that's not the answer. Those two only made one movie together that I'm aware of; yes, Frank was a priest in that one.

  15. #9 Was it The Forsythe Saga by john Galworthy?

  16. For #2, it was Wendy Hiller along with Rex Harrison. That's all I've got so far. Another hard one, Paul!

    ReplyDelete
  17. For #1, I don't know if they are the most famous, but they are 2 favorites of mine: Harold Russell and Cathy O'Donnell in "The Best Years of Our Lives" (that wedding made me cry), and Glenn Ford and Bette Davis (as the mean sister) in "A Stolen Life." Am I at least warm? Is Glenn Ford one of the guys?

  26. Tom Got that right on Monday night Gilby. Tom, so nothing came to you in a dream about Who are We?

    ReplyDelete
  27. Wow! Did I fall asleep at the switch or what?!

    ReplyDelete
  28. Paul, Becky and I each got half. But which half did each of us get for #1?

    ReplyDelete
  29. I had some nightmares, but no, the answer hasn't come to me yet. I can't think of any movie where someone plays a priest and another plays a murderer.

    This is a hard Trivia Time.

    How much longer do we have to guess?

    ReplyDelete
  30. Tom , You have till Sunday, Gilby, You got Donna, and Becks got Cathy. I should never do this before COFFEE!

    ReplyDelete
  31. I agree Tom this week's Who are We is tough -- Wayne & Bond were the only pair I could think of for the murderer & priest & it was a stretch(The Quiet Man)

  32. Tom and Gilby, if you reread the clues and the answer to # 1 it's not really to hard to come up with the answer. Big Hint look at some older post's and Trivia Ttime questions and answers.
