Only knew Shelley Winters was in it from a line a comedienne said some time ago, when doing a show where the ceiling had an air vent really high up. IIRC, it was Paula Poundstone.
Actually, I don't think ANY of the actors mentioned were in "Marty." This movie was a few years later; and, honestly, if you don't get it from the names I've listed, you won't get it from any of the other actors.
"A worm, with very few exceptions, is NOT a human being." This is "Young Frankenstein." Teri Garr was Inga, Cloris Leachman was Frau Blucher *whinny* , and Kenneth Mars played Inspector Kemp-a character actually from the old Frankenstein movie (in a deleted scene, he says outright the original monster gave him his injuries.) How many times did I see it before I noticed his monocle was worn OVER the eyepatch? :)

Oh. I guess I was.
I see the movie in my mind. Ernest played someone memorable as I remember (huh,) Marty somebody. I think he might have won an Oscar doing it.

A big box-office hit huh, let's see I'm thinking it sounds a lot like the cast from Towering Inferno.

I was afraid I was going to have to exclaim something like "Neptune's beard!"
"The Poseidon Adventure" is correct.

(wrong thread)
Since I posted (by accident), let's take a free guess with "Marty".
Wrong thread.

Marty was the name of the movie. Best picture for 1955(?).

GVC, you're a couple of clues behind. The Borgnine pic was "Poseidon Adventure." We're on my newer set of clues, now.
Welcome to the game!

I can't answer that for you.
You are, of course, correct about the movie.
