  1. I can't believe I did that. :lol: Yes, the answer is "Klute." Jane Fonda is the Oscar-winning actress (with Oscar-winning dad, Henry). Det. Klute was played by Donald Sutherland (father of Kiefer). Human's up. George
  2. "In vino veritas." "Age quod agis." "Credat Judaeus apella, non ego." "Eventus stultorum magister." "In pace requiescat." "Come on boys. We don't want any trouble in here. Not in any language." George
  3. Sounds like "Gran Torino." :) George
  4. I dunno. Were you good at it? :lol: George
  5. The actor who played Det. Klute is still very active in films, today. Neither he nor his son (a currently popular actor) has won an Oscar. The tag line for this 1970's movie was, "You'd never take her for a call girl. You'd never take him for a cop." The movie's title is the cop's name, though the call girl was the main character. Winning the Oscar for Best Actress, the "call girl" gave the shortest acceptance speech ever (suggested to her by her Oscar-winning father): "Thank you...thank you very much members of the Academy and thank all of you who applauded. There's a great deal to say and I'm not going to say it tonight, I would just like to really thank you very much." The actress was better known in later years for political activism; her early roles were generally sex-kitten types. George

  7. Cousins Isabella Rossellini Death Becomes Her George
  8. I kept thinking Edgar Bergen, but I forgot about Winchell. George
  9. I can think of a number of ventriloquists and puppet-show guys, but the artificial heart deal is really throwing me. George
  10. No idea. The characters' names don't even help. George
  11. It's obviously about a woman the singer knows well. I'll tell you it's not his wife, mother, or sister. George

  13. It was originally recorded by Ernie K. Doe, and covered by Herman's Hermits. George
  14. Interesting guess, although there was never a 5 1/2 Weeks movie. A secretary, whose idea was stolen by her boss, pretends to be the boss after the boss is injured. For this, the secretary is put in a mental hospital. Starring Melanie Griffith. George
  15. Crimson Tide Gene Hackman Superman George
  16. Here's the whole song, with the title redacted: The worst person I know [TITLE][TITLE] She worries me so [TITLE][TITLE] If she leaves us alone we would have a happy home Sent from down below [TITLE][TITLE] [TITLE][TITLE] I come home with my pay [TITLE][TITLE] She asks me what I made [TITLE][TITLE] She thinks her advice is a contribution but if she will leave that will be the solution and don't come back no more [TITLE][TITLE] [TITLE][TITLE] Satan should be her name [TITLE][TITLE] To me they're about the same [TITLE][TITLE] Every time I open my mouth She steps in and tries to put me out How could she stoop so low [TITLE][TITLE] [TITLE][TITLE] The 60's group was part of the British Invasion. George
  17. "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest"? George
  18. I guess that depends on what you mean by girl shows. If they have attractive girls showing their wares ("Police Woman," "Charlie's Angels," "Charmed," "Partners in Crime," I'm there. If you mean drama-queen stuff, count me out. ;) George
  19. That's it. :lol: I didn't want to use the "remembered from one line" quote ("Say hello to my little friend!"); but almost all of the quotes in IMDb were obscene. Your turn. George
  20. Pretty much every other line had the F-word in it. :lol: George
  21. The song was a minor hit for one of my favorite 60's bands; it was a bigger hit for a solo artist in 1961. George
