ReplyDeleteHey Tom, good try but the person I'm looking for is not Kevin Kline.
ReplyDelete#10. So far I have... The Man from Snowy River (1982)
ReplyDelete#6. "If we are ever to have law and order in the west all the (fill in the blank) must be taken out and shot down like dogs". Henry Hull played the newspaper editor, Major Cobb, in 1939s "Jesse James" starring Tyron Power and Henry Fonda in glorious Technicolor and 1940s "The Return of Frank James" with Fonda and Gene Tierney.
ReplyDelete#7. Henry King directed "Jesse James" and Fritz Lang directed "The Return of Frank James".
#8. You spotted me two with "Jesse James" and "The Return of Frank James", but this dyed in the wool Fordian has no trouble coming up with "The Grapes of Wrath" and "Drums Along the Mohawk".
Dawn , yes you got that one. Caftan woman, I guess I'm making them to easy again. you got #6#7 "Paragraph."BTW I'll have some more Henry Hull questions next week.
ReplyDeletePaul, let's not say the questions are easy, let's say that I'm brilliant!
ReplyDeleteThe Man From Snowy River and Treasure Island? Oh, for the Kirk Douglas peg leg question.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I love that scene from an otherwise awful film, STAR TREK. In fact, I love the music so much that over the years I've bought two cds (yeah, I still buy them) with Goldsmith's soundtrack just so I could listen while I work or drive. I've always said (and still say) this is one of the best movie soundtracks ever.
ReplyDeleteWhy two cds? Cause I played one into the ground.
Caftan Woman, Ok your good, feel better now? LOL. Yvette, thats not the name of the film,but I'll give you half credit. That's the best scene in Star Trek TMP . Every time I think I'm too old for Tre all I have to do is watch that scene,
ReplyDelete#8 Grapes of Wrath, Return of Frank James, Drums Along the Mohawk and another to be named later - all starred Henry Fonda & John Carradine
ReplyDeleteThat's all - thank you.
Aurora
Aurora, good work, but Caftan woman beat you to the punch.
ReplyDeletePaul and Joann, I'm late with this, and my brain is trying to work too late also -- it's almost 4:00 in the morning. But I had to stop by and tell you that The Great Flynn looks absolutely fabulous in that picture! What a honey!
