The Hilton Twins are driving me nuts. I'm fairly sure that one part of the link is Oscar-winning actors. The Hilton twins only appeared in two movies, Freaks and Chained for Life. Wikipedia says they appeared in another silent horror film, The Unholy Three, but I haven't gotten any confirmation on that, and one source says that the unbilled conjoined twins in The Unholy Three were not the Hiltons. The two credit films the pair made had several B-movie actors in the cast with extensive filmographies like Wallace Ford and Allen Jenkins, but no Oscar winners. Victor McLaglen was in The Unholy Three, but I would think Frank could have found a better matchup for him.

If the twins aren't on there for their filmography, the only other thing that would qualify is their name, HIlton. I'm not sure how that ties to Oscar winning actors unless perhaps it refers to the role for which the actor won the Oscar. If Jon or Peter Finch were in the game, that could match with Gregory Peck on that basis. The Timothy Hutton-Donald Sutherland matchup looks good because it would lead to three possible Tangredis. (1) An Oscar-winning actor paired with another actor from the film in which they won the Oscar; (2) an Oscar-winning actor being paired with another actor from their first movie (when they were "born"), or (3) an Oscar-winning actor paired with another actor who played their parent. But other than the Hutton/Sutherland matchup, I can't find anything that works.

[mellytu74]

Hilton. First thing I thought of was James Hilton who wrote Goodbye Mr. Chips, Random Harvest, Lost Horizon.

But I see nothing that works with that.

[franktangredi]

Once the remaining incorrect answer is corrected, I think the Tangredi will be discovered almost immediately.

It's not Maggie Smith talking to Whoopi after she questions the 9 o'clock bedtime?

Michael Caine was in Darling with Julie Christie, BTW.

14. He managed to complete his final film role - that of a Chinese mandarin - with the aid of oxygen tanks and a nurse.

Okay, while technically Peter Sellers is not the correct answer on a couple of counts, I can see where this would be misleading. So I will tell you that this is not Peter Sellers.

64. On film, she has worked under the direction of Woody Allen, Steven Soderbergh, Brian DePalma, Barbra Streisand - but not her first husband.

AMY IRVING

65. “Wait! Where are you going? I was going to make Espresso!”

GENE HACKMAN

66. He played one real-life role that would later be reprised by Jason Schwartzmann, and another that would later be reprised by Jim Broadbent.

67. “I'd have to be pretty stupid to write a book about killing and then kill him the way I described in my book.”

SHARON STONE

68. In a television series, his father played a great American fictional detective; in a later series, he played the legman of another great American fictional detective.

TIMOTHY HUTTON

69. “If you arrest all the men who get intoxicated in Atlanta, you must have a good many Yankees in jail, Captain.”

OLIVIA DeHAVILLAND

70. Her second and third husbands were Hollywood directors, her fourth a popular bandleader.

71. “Susan, I speak French, but that doesn't make me Joan of Arc.”

MAUREEN O'HARA

72. She has received more Oscar nominations than any other Black actress.

VIOLA DAVIS

73. “You know how I stayed alive this long? All these years? Fear. The spectacle of fearsome acts. Somebody steals from me, I cut off his hands. He offends me, I cut out his tongue. He rises against me, I cut off his head, stick it on a pike, raise it high up so all on the streets can see. That's what preserves the order of things. Fear.”

DANIEL DAY-LEWIS

74. She very much wanted to star opposite her husband in two prestige films of the early 1940s, but the roles ended up going to Joan Fontaine and Greer Garson.

VIVIEN LEIGH

75. “There's a name for you ladies, but it isn't used in high society ... outside of a kennel.”

JOAN CRAWFORD

[kroxquo]

Having gone back and checked my work, 34. Cicely Tyson and 46. Jeri Ryan are both wrong so we can remove them.

14. He managed to complete his final film role - that of a Chinese mandarin - with the aid of oxygen tanks and a nurse.
DAVID CARRADINE

Unfortunately, this is still incorrect. Looks like this was a much harder question than I realized.

This is a distinguished British actor who suffered from chronic asthma.

This is ROBERT DONAT, whose last role was the Mandarin of Yang Cheng in The Inn of the Sixth Happiness. Partly because of his asthma, Donat had a very limited filmography for someone who was that respected and whose career stretched over 20 years. He made only 19 films and was another Oscar winner for Best Actor. If this is the actor who is a giveaway to the Tangredi, I don't see it yet. Ironically, according to IMDB, he was Peter Sellers' favorite actor, the person we originally incorrectly gave as the answer to this clue.

It would have been more obvious at the time I made that statement.

[silverscreenselect]

I've got it. I don't want to engage in wholesale cheating, so I'm only going to give matches that I know the source material.

14. ROBERT DONAT won his Oscar for Goodbye, Mr. Chips, based on the novel by James Hilton who matches with 56. THE HILTON TWINS (Shame on you Frank for not using Paris Hilton)

51. DONNA REED won her Oscar for From Here to Eternity, based on the novel by James Jones, who matches with 16. SHIRLEY JONES. Since turnaround is fair play,

16. SHIRLEY JONES won her Oscar for Elmer Gantry, based on the novel by Sinclair Lewis, who matches with 40. JERRY LEWIS.

3. JULIE ANDREWS won her Oscar for Mary Poppins, based on the books by PL Travers, who matches with 55. HENRY TRAVERS

76. JOAN CRAWFORD won her Oscar for Mildred Pierce, based on the novel by James M. Cain, who matches with 18. DEAN CAIN

42. PEGGY ASHCROFT won her Oscar for A Passage to India, based on the novel by EM Forster, who matches with 10. ROBERT FORSTER

43. GREGORY PECK won his Oscar for To Kill a Mockingbird, based on the novel by Harper Lee, who matches with 25. CHRISTOPHER LEE

74. VIVIEN LEIGH won an Oscar for Gone with the Wind, based on the novel by Margaret Mitchell, who matches with 16. THOMAS MITCHELL

58. ROD STEIGER won his Oscar for In the Heat of the Night, based on the novel by John Ball, who matches with 22. LUCILLE BALL

73. DANIEL DAY-LEWIS won an Oscar for There Will be Blood, based on a novel by Upton Sinclair, who matches with 34s. MADGE SINCLAIR

8. REX HARRISON won his Oscar for My Fair Lady, based on Pygmalion by GB Shaw, who goes with 49. ROBERT SHAW

Cliff Robertson won his Oscar for Charlie, based on Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes. Is one of the unmatched clues Evelyn Keyes? And if Charlton Heston is on the list, there should be an actor named Wallace.

[jarnon]

WTG, SSS!

61. GEENA DAVIS won her Oscar for The Accidental Tourist, based on the novel by Anne Tyler, who matches with 26. TOM TYLER.

68. TIMOTHY HUTTON won his Oscar for Ordinary People, based on the novel by Judith Guest, who matches with 31. CHRISTOPHER GUEST.

[mrkelley23]

Vivien Leigh also won an Oscar for Streetcar, so she could be matched with 4. John Williams, as well.

As SSS pointed out, 8. is REX HARRISON

Does the Oscar win have to be for Best Actor/Actress? Maggie Smith won for Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, but that's a tough author match (Muriel Spark). California Suite, OTOH, is by Neil Simon, matches with 54.Michel Simon

Geena Davis and Peggy Ashcroft won Supporting Actress Oscars, so the match should be with any acting Oscar. And Vivien Leigh is probably one of the actresses used twice in the puzzle.

32. For 23 years, this Oscar-winning actor was related by marriage to Post Cereals and the Wall Street firm of E.F. Hutton.

CLIFF ROBERTSON

70. Her second and third husbands were Hollywood directors, her fourth a popular bandleader.

As I surmised, 70. is EVELYN KEYES, who completes the match with Cliff Robertson and Charley (Flowers for Algernon)/Daniel Keyes.
