  1. Yes. I presume the last clue gave it away. George
  2. The star was the first to suggest that his character should be Scottish (originally the character was Québécois) but was turned down. He was later informed late into Season 1 filming that his character was changed to be Scottish from the actor's own hometown of Dundee. In the opening credits there is a brief image of an ATN broadcast. The on-screen headline says, "Gender fluid illegals may be entering the country twice." The ticker below says, "Dem senator wants to create 'supremer' court" and "Is 'sweetcheeks ' hate speech now?" Alan Ruck (born in 1956) is closer in age to the actor playing his father (born 1946) than the actress playing his sister (born 1987). He is also older than the actress playing his stepmother (born 1960). The current HBO show is heavily influenced by Shakespeare's 17th century tragedy King Lear. Most people assume it to be a thinly-veiled analogy of the Murdoch family. George
  3. Jennifer Connelly The Hot Spot Virginia Madsen George
  4. This musical won three Academy Awards. David Hemming didn't sing at all, although he was the only trained singer in the cast. In later years, the star bought the rights to the stage version of the movie for $1 million, revamped the musical, and took it on tour. It made him a very rich man. During one rocky period in the film's production, David Hemmings came to collect the star from his house in the Hollywood Hills. When he arrived, he found him on a balcony above the swimming pool. "I'm going to jump", he announced. "You can't do that", Hemmings protested. "There's no water in the pool". The star replied, "I don't give a f--k. I f--king hate Warner Brothers and f--king Hollywood, the people here are all f--king arseholes". Hemmings climbed out on to the balcony. "Are you sure you really want to do this?" The star's face fell, and he said "No, I don't. Let's have a drink." He and Hemmings became life-long friends. The star wanted very badly to play the lead role but was repeatedly turned down due to his limited singing ability. He eventually won over the producers by pointing out that he was taller than the leading lady, whereas Richard Burton, also up for the role, was shorter than she. For a post-marriage bath scene with the leading lady, the star startled everyone by strutting onto the set completely nude with a large erection. (There is no nudity in the film.) The movie has nothing to do with the Kennedy Administration. George
  5. I'm sure I'll recognize the movie, but it's not coming to me. "The Longest Day"? George
  6. Well, apparently "Nicole" may hit Florida or the east coast as a storm or hurricane, here's her cone: George
  7. No, but sometimes you need to give a couple of clues (especially if you've already gone through the whole cast). For all I know, Raf, WW, and Nathan are playing but stumped, as well. WW did offer a try near the beginning of the thread. George
  8. Jones's most famous quote is "I have not yet begun to fight!" Not helping, I'm afraid. George
  9. I have heard of it. I just haven't seen it. I haven't seen Vertigo, the Birds, Dial M for Murder, or Frenzy, either. I have seen Rear Window. George
  10. I don't recognize it either. Perhaps tell us what it is and post another? George
  11. Feel free to share with the class. George
  12. If that's correct, it means the only things I remember from the movie were the off-the-wall ads (because I don't remember any of these lines). George
  13. Yes. Aaron Ashmore: Smallville Justin Whalin: Lois and Clark Mehcad Brooks: Supergirl (TV) Marc McClure: Superman, Superman II, Supergirl (movie) Jack Larson: Adventures of Superman Tommy Bond: Superman (1948) George
  14. I'm sure there will be a coming, but I'm not getting it. George
  15. So, is this the guy running for Governor in PA? George
  16. All right. Let's make this easy. Aaron Ashmore Justin Whalin Mehcad Brooks Marc McClure Jack Larson Tommy Bond George
