  1. Not the same year. Alex Rodriguez (in 2003 with the Rangers) and Andre Dawson (in 1987 with the Cubs) won baseball MVP awards. What was unusual about those two wins? Neither team went to the World Series (in those years). George Think about my hint (1962 Mets).
  2. The Day the Earth Stood Still "Are you trying to seduce me, Mrs. Robinson?" George
  3. No. They did change teams over the years, but this question refers specifically to the years they won the MVP award. George
  4. It would be like Frank Thomas (not "The Big Hurt") winning the 1962 MVP while playing for the Mets. George
  5. It's a Wonderful Life "Your Honor, every one of these letters is addressed to Santa Claus. The Post Office has delivered them. Therefore, the Post Office Department, a branch of the Federal Government, recognizes this man Kris Kringle to be the one and only Santa Claus." George
  6. Wrong couple. Good guess, though. George
  7. I knew what he meant. I just don't know whether he was actually answering to get the next shot or hoping someone else would get it. George
  8. This isn't Beetlejuice. You can say the name. George
  9. Sounds vaguely familiar, but I don't "remember it from one line." George
  10. This show was originally to be an adventure drama, "Seven Against the Sea." It was re-tooled as a comedy and was very successful. The star of the show originally turned down the role, figuring that as an Oscar-winning actor, TV would have been a bit of a demotion. But when talking with a young boy who didn't recognize him but who could name the stars of several TV shows, he decided to take the part, one for which he is probably best remembered. George
  11. This biopic about a singer had the lead role offered to Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Cruise, Bruce Willis, and Johnny Depp. None of them would likely have done their own singing, but the actor who finally got the part did (and quite well, IMHO). The movie is also a love story. The actual couple were only a few years apart in age, but the actors were over 20 years apart. George
  12. It is a song, but it's the showstopper from a famous movie (musical). George
  13. No. Maybe this will make it a LITTLE easier: Alex Rodriguez (in 2003 with the Rangers) and Andre Dawson (in 1987 with the Cubs) won baseball MVP awards. What was unusual about those two wins? George
  14. "Ladies and gentlemen: the story you are about to hear is true. Only the names have been changed to protect the innocent." George
  15. "Seventy-six trombones lead the big parade..." George
  16. Okay, let's try this. Alex Rodriguez (in 2003) and Andre Dawson (in 1987) won baseball MVP awards. What was unusual about those two wins? George
  17. No. Note that the "third movie" was not a sequel. It just starred the same three actors. George
  18. It was one of the Lord of the Rings movies, the first, I think. George
  19. Basic Instinct Jeanne Tripplehorn Waterworld George
