I think I've figured part of it out. These films all have multiple Oscar winners in the cast:

60 Seconds - Nicolas Cage, Robert Duvall, Angelina Jolie
Professionals - Burt Lancaster, Jack Palance, Lee Marvin
10 Commandments - Charlton Heston, Yul Brynner, Anne Baxter
Charade - Audrey Hepburn, James Coburn, Walter Matthau
Deadline USA - Bogart, Kim Hunter, Ed Begley, Ethel Barrymore (I saw this one fairly recently; holds up fairly well)

My guess is that the actors costarred in the Oscar winning film with the Oscar winner, like Robert Morley with Bogart in The African Queen. I don't have time to play with this right now, but these should be fairly easy to match up.

Looks promising. So Bogart goes with B-69 Robert Morley (African Queen); Hunter goes with B-30 Vivien Leigh (Streetcar); Begley goes with B-51 Paul Newman (Sweet Bird of Youth); and Lady Barrymore goes with B-1 Cary Grant (None but the Lonely Heart). I like it.

Off the top of my head Oscar winners

Pollyanna - Malden, Wyman, Crisp
Our Town - Holden, Bainter, Mitchell
Dinner at Eight - Dressler, Lionel Barrymore, Beery
Lovers and Other Strangers - Keaton, Gig Young, Leachman
Ox-Bow Incident - Henry Fonda, Jane Darwell, Anthony Quinn

The Professionals starred Burt Lancaster. In his Oscar winning role, B-9 Thelma Ritter was his mom.
The Professionals starred Lee Marvin. In his Oscar winning role, he starred with B-13 Jane Fonda
The Professionals starred Jack Palance. In his Oscar winning role, he co-starred with B-45 Bruno Kirby

Dinner at Eight starred Wallace Beery, who co-starred with B-56 Jackie Cooper in his Oscar winning role
Dinner at eight starred Marie Dressler, who co-starred with B-24 Wallace Beery
Dinner at Eight starred Lionel Barrymore, who co-starred with B-89 Clark Gable in his Oscar winning role

A Catered Affair gives us Borgnine, Bette Davis and Barry Fitzgerald. So, we've got Betsy Blair and George Brent. Don't see Bing Crosby though.

In that case, I got some bad information. Sorry. I did mean High Society.
High Society had Kelly, Sinatra and Crosby.

A fresh consolidation WITHOUT THE MATCHES.

Matches will come later this evening. I got waylaid.

Game #172: Star Power

Identify the 50 movies in List A and the 90 actors in List B. (Every other clue is a
quotation.) Then, form 50 groups – 43 consisting of a movie plus three actors and 7
consisting of a movie plus four actors – according to a Tangredi, or principle you must
discover for yourself.

18 actors will be used twice. 17 actors will be used three times. 3 actors will be used
four times. One actor will be used seven times.

I like to think that there will be no alternate correct matches. (I’m probably wrong.)

I also think this one's fairly easy to get. (I’m probably wrong.)

And my apologies to everyone: I just could not work IAMMMMW into this game.

LIST A: MOVIES

A-2. THE ELEPHANT MAN
A-3. BEAU GESTE
A-4. EXODUS
A-5. AMERICAN GANGSTER

We've got Winona Ryder for Jolie. Cathy O'Donnell for Heston, Kerr for Brynner, Ty Power for Baxter, Peck for Hepburn.

I am sure Brock Peters is here for Peck (Mockingbird), Katy Jurado for Gary Cooper (High Noon), Victor Jory was in GWTW, Swayze for Whoopi Goldberg, Peter Graves for Holden...

yeah, this works

AMERICAN PSYCHO
Has to be American Psycho to give us Reese Witherspoon for Joaquin Phoenix.

I just went through Frank's last puzzle.

This is EVE ARDEN (Our Miss Brooks was the sitcom)

And she co-starred with Joan Crawford (A-43 The Women) in Mildred Pierce

And Thelma Ritter isn't here for Lancaster because he didn't win his Oscar for birdman of Alcatraz. He won it for Elmer Gantry - Jean Simmons.

Who will also match with Shirley Jones (Oklahoma) for Gantry.

Thelma goes with George Sanders (Forever Amber) for All About Eve.

Matches coming later. I have been delayed.

I knew these would come pretty easily once the Tangredi was established. Note that a couple of the completes are actually partials.

Jeff Corey was in True Grit with John Wayne (Yellow Ribbon)

Seven starred Morgan Freeman (Clint Eastwood-Million Dollar Baby), Kevin Spacey, Gwyneth Paltrow.

Carnage starred Jodie Foster (Scott Glenn-Silence of the Lambs), Christoph Waltz (Michael Fassbender-Inglorious Basterds), Kate Winslet (Ralph Fiennes-The Reader)

The Man Who Would Be King starred Sean Connery, Michael Caine (Woody Allen - Hannah), Christopher Plummer

Exodus had Paul Newman (Tom Cruise - Color of Money)

Now, I've got a bit of a problem with Ocean's 13. George Clooney and Al Pacino (Chris O'Donnell - Scent of a Woman) are in it, but Julia Roberts, who appeared in the first two Oceans movies is not, and I can't find another Oscar winner in the cast. So unless Frank is counting non-acting Oscars like Matt Damon's or this was a slipup, I can't find a third actor.

Christopher Plummer was in Beginners with Ewan McGregor.

Postman Rings Twice stars Jack Nicholson, Jessica Lange, Anjelica Huston.

Cloud Atlas had Tom Hanks and Halle Berry (Billy Bob Thornton - Monsters Ball)

Catch 22 has Jon Voight (Coming Home-Jane Fonda) and Alan Arkin (Little Miss Sunshine-Greg Kinnear)

Gwyneth Paltrow was in Shakespeare in Love with Judi Dench.

Eva Marie Saint was in Exodus.

American Gangster had Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe (Joaquin Phoenix-Gladiator)

Magnolia had Jason Robards (Julia-Jane Fonda) and Philip Seymour Hoffman. I'm guessing that Vanessa Redgrave is also in one of the remaining films for another match with Jane FOnda.
