A decade before "Forrest Gump," this movie put its star in a number of real scenes from the 1920s and 1930s. Unlike FG, this movie was in the form of a documentary. The cinematographer had had some acclaim for his work on "The Godfather," but this film produced his first Oscar nomination. Silent screen legend, Lillian Gish, was filmed for a scene in this movie. She scolded director of photography, Gordon Willis, on his lighting set-up and, while the crew watched aghast, gave Willis step by step instructions on how to re-light the scene. Willis complied. The scene did not make it into the final version of the film. The star is quite famous, for good and bad reasons. This is one of his lesser-known films As with many of his other movies, the star wrote and directed. George

Right on both counts. "Mary Brown" was her character in Amazon Women on the Moon. She was "Lorna Carp" in Shampoo. George -

Maybe marginal for this thread, but I expect that it will be recognized: "I want the people to know that they still have two out of three branches of the government working for them, and that ain't bad." George

You and your homophones... In one episode, the main character is looking at home movies of herself from when she was a teenager. The home movies were actually footage from the star's previous series. The star has admitted that she is embarrassed by her work in this series. She didn't want the role, but her stepfather, Jock Mahoney, convinced her to accept it for job security. She has admitted that she disliked the scripts so much that she refused to read them. She would learn her lines right before shooting each scene by looking at the script supervisor's script. This is the first and only American television series to be set in Puerto Rico. The star (a well-known actress) is the only surviving member of the cast. Patty Duke was originally the first choice for the lead role. George
