Name that Actor/Actress (or Role)
GeorgeStGeorge replied to Raf's topic in Movies, Music, Books, Art
Well ... yeah. I was about 15 when it came out. (Saw it a couple of years later, when I was in college.) Fonda DID win the Best Actress Oscar for the performance. George -

Fair enough, but all the roles were from fairly famous movies: Barbarella (Barbarella) Corie Bratter (Barefoot in the Park) Bree Daniels (Klute) Iris Caine (Steelyard Blues) Jane Harper (Fun with Dick and Jane) Sally Hyde (Coming Home) Judy Bernly (9 to 5) Chelsea Wayne (On Golden Pond) George -

Time to bring out the giveaway: Barbarella Corie Bratter Bree Daniels Iris Caine Jane Harper Sally Hyde Judy Bernly Chelsea Wayne George -
Sheen was in "Spin City," but I doubt he got $1 Million/episode (though Michael J Fox could have). His only other show was "Anger Management." He might have been paid a lot for that show, just because of his notoriety. George

Sheen just occurred to me, as well, but I can't imagine he got $1,000,000/episode for any other of his shows. George

I can imagine James Caan getting $1,000,000 per episode of "Las Vegas" but not for any other TV show. George

Julia Louis Dreyfuss for Seinfeld and Veep? Or, Bryan Cranston for Malcolm in the Middle and Breaking Bad? George
-
He looks a lot like Peter Ustinov, but I can't think of another movie he's been in. I'm sure I've seen some. George

"Gone with the Wind"? George

You son of a ... George

Goodbye to you my trusted friend We've known each other since we were nine or ten Together we've climbed hills and trees Learned of love and ABC's Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees Goodbye my friend it's hard to die When all the birds are singing in the sky Now that spring is in the air Pretty girls are everywhere Think of me and I'll be there George

Last clue before I flip over the cards: The title of this movie is a play on a song used in the 1933 Disney cartoon, "The Three Little Pigs." In her A&E Biography special, the lead actress remarked that her performance as Martha was her personal best. 18th July 1966: Police seized this film, and arrested the manager of a local Nashville cinema, for contravening a municipal order that banned films, as this, for contents of an obscene nature. Two of the stars married each other. Twice. The first movie to be given the MPAA tag: "No one under 18 will be admitted unless accompanied by his parent." While the lead actor and actress were forces to be reckoned with while they were working, it was a challenge to actually get them in front of the camera every day. They both had it in their contracts that they didn't have to be on the set until 10:00 A.M., even though most other productions began at dawn. After they arrived on set, it would take two hours of makeup, hair and wardrobe to get them ready for shooting, and by the time they were camera ready, it was lunch time. They would often go off for lengthy cocktail-filled lunches, often with friends, and then return late in the afternoon to finally begin shooting. "When they finally came back late," recalled Sam O'Steen, "they'd just ignore it all, be real nice. 'Hey, Mike, old buddy, sorry we're late. Okay, let's shoot!'...Sometimes they wouldn't come back 'til five o'clock and they had in their contract that they couldn't work past six o'clock." This movie became the first motion picture, since Cimarron (1931), to be nominated for every Academy Award category in which it was eligible, including Best Adapted Screenplay, Director, all the acting categories, and Picture of the Year. The Supporting Actress, who was pregnant at the time of filming, suffered a miscarriage on the set. The MPAA insisted on the removal of the term "screw you" from the film where it was replaced with the term "God damn you" but allowed the terms "screw" and "hump the hostess" to remain in the film.

A sequel to this movie is currently in theaters. "The things I'm gonna do for my country!" "What is this place?" "Looks like a diner." "That's clever. You know, you almost had me going there for a while. I was a bit groggy before, then I started noticing things. Like, you got a stockbroker over here, all dressed up reading the Financial Times on a Sunday morning when the market's closed. Unlikely, but okay, I can go with that. I can even go with the stick-up man packing a cop-issue Beretta. But you want to know where you blew it? [points at waitress] With her. My aunt was in the restaurant business all her life. There's no way in hell a career waitress comes to work in high heels. She'd have blisters the size of pancakes before lunch. And if she ain't real, then this whole thing ain't real. That's how I knew this bozo over here wouldn't get a shot off even if we waited till St. Patrick's Day. Because there's nothing but blanks in these guns. Oh, and no offense, but their performances were terrible." "First you set me up in the bar. Then you shoot me in the back." "My boss does it to me. I did it to you. It's a vicious circle." "I've been undercover here for two years." "Two years? What was your plan? To let them die of old age?" George

I'm guessing that "Friends" and "Seinfeld" are on the list, and probably "The Sopranos." The shows can't be very old, because $1 million today is a LOT less than it was a couple of decades ago. If "MASH" or "All in the Family" aired today, they would probably make the list. I'd like to say "The Big Bang Theory" and, perhaps, "The West Wing." George

OK. And not ALL of the cast members were necessarily getting 1 million/episode, but at least ONE cast member was. Got it. George

Are they all cable shows, or did you just mean that cable shows are included in the list? George
