Game #194: Very Supportive Actors

[mellytu74]

A-22. CARY GRANT = Ethel Barrymore in None but the Lonely Heart (Portrait of Jennie)

Also Jimmy Stewart in Philadelphia Story and Joan Fontaine in Suspicion.

There may be some refinements to it (if it is a correct way to go) but I cannot figure anything out now.

[silverscreenselect]

I think you've got it.

Jeff Bridges was in Starman, and he won an Oscar for Crazy Heart, in which one of his co-stars was Robert Duvall.

Marcia Gay Harden was in The Mist, and she won the Oscar for Pollock with Ed Harris.

Sean Connery was in Never Say Never Again, and he won the Oscar for The Untouchables, in which one of his co-stars was Robert De Niro.

[mellytu74]

Look at the clue for this one again.

[silverscreenselect]

Charge of the Light Brigade - Olivia DeHaviland, Donald Crisp and David Niven

Look at the clue for this one again.

This is the 1968 remake of Charge, which featured John Gielgud.

[mellytu74]

Charge of the Light Brigade - Olivia DeHaviland, Donald Crisp and David Niven

[mellytu74]

A-17. HUGH MARLOWE - George Sanders in All About Eve, Dean Ajgger in Twelve O'clock High, Burt Lancaster and Shirley Jones in ELmer Gantry

Add Anne Baxter (10 Commandments) to Marlowe's list.

No - we add her to Elsa Lanchester.

She won the Oscar for Razor's Edge, not All About Eve.

[silverscreenselect]

The China Syndrome had Jack Lemmon, who is the match with William Powell for Mr. Roberts, Jane Fonda, who is the match for Donald Sutherland for Klute, and Michael Douglas, who is the match with Martin Sheen for Wall Street.

[silverscreenselect]

Another one for Ten Commandments, it has Yul Brynner who matches with Deborah Kerr for The King and I. The Burt Lancaster movie is The Professionals, which also has Lee Marvin and Jack Palance. The James Stewart movie is Flight of the Phoenix, which also has Peter Finch and Ernest Borgnine.

[jarnon]

WTG Melly! This was a tough Tangredi. First consolidation…

Identify the 36 actors in List A and the 70 movies in List B. (Every other clue is a quotation.) Then, match each actor to three or more movies, according to a Tangredi, or principle you must discover for yourself.

• 1 actor will be matched to 6 moves
• 2 actors will be matched to 5 movies
• 8 actors will be matched to 4 movies
• 25 actors will be matched to 3 movies

34 movies will be used twice, 8 movies will be used three times, and 1 movie will be used four times.

There will be no alternate answers.

Sure, I know it’s not the whole answer, but it’s got to start somewhere, and it's got to start with passion. Not pamphlets, not even your series. It's got to be with people.

ALL THAT JAZZ

B-11. THE GOOD EARTH

B-12. “No one of us can do much. Yet, each of us, perhaps, can catch some gleam of knowledge which, modest and insufficient of itself, may add to man's dream of truth. It is by these small candles in our darkness that we see before us, little by little, the dim outline of that great plan that shapes the universe. And I am among those who think that for this reason, science has great beauty and, with its great spiritual strength, will in time cleanse this world of its evils, its ignorance, its poverty, diseases, wars, and heartaches. Look for the clear light of truth. Look for unknown, new roads. Even when man's sight is keener far than now, divine wonder will never fail him. Every age has its own dreams. Leave, then, the dreams of yesterday. Youth, take the torch of knowledge and build the palace of the future.”
MADAME CURIE

Promise of a better day. Promise of a greater hope. Promise of a new tomorrow. This particular aura can be found in the gait of a beautiful girl. In her smile, in her soul, the way she makes every rotten little thing about life seem like it's going to be okay. The supermodels, Willy? That's all they are. Bottled promise. Scenes from a brand new day. Hope dancing in stiletto heels.”

B-23. This movie marked the nexus where A Nous la Liberte meets The Murder of Roger Ackroyd.

B-24. “With all my heart, I still love the man I killed.”
THE LETTER

B-25. THE LAST LAUGH

[franktangredi]

Good going so far!

On the Actors list, two of the answers with question marks are wrong. The one with two alternates includes the correct answer.

On the Movies list, all of the answers with questions marks are correct.

Not all of the partials will end up being used. I had quite a job avoiding alternate answers on this one, and some of the movies do contain Oscar winners who I couldn't fit in.

[jarnon]

A-26. ROBERT DE NIRO in Goodfellas with Joe Pesci (B-66.MY COUSIN VINNY)

[silverscreenselect]

TANGREDI:
A listed actor is in a movie with another actor who won Best Supporting Actor or Actress, and who was also in a listed movie.

Have we established definitively that this is just supporting actors/actresses?

Even if it is, Morgan Freeman was in Unforgiven with Gene Hackman (Poseidon Adventure). Shelley Winters, Red Buttons, and Jack Albertson were also in Poseidon Adventure.

But then again, so was Ernest Borgnine, who was in Flight of the Phoenix, and Frank said there were no alternates, so that rules that out (and also excludes my other matches for Flight of the Phoenix). But George Kennedy was also in Flight of the Phoenix, so that's the actor from that film.

[jarnon]

My God, I just realized this game has 123 matches! Frank, you're diabolical!

On the Movies list, all of the answers with questions marks are correct.

I went back and removed the question marks (correctly I hope).

[silverscreenselect]

Have we established definitively that this is just supporting actors/actresses?

Shelley Winters, Red Buttons, and Jack Albertson were also in Poseidon Adventure. But then again, so was Ernest Borgnine, who was in Flight of the Phoenix, and Frank said there were no alternates, so that rules that out (and also excludes my other matches for Flight of the Phoenix).

But now I'm at a loss for Starman. The only actor who won an Oscar who was in Starman was Jeff Bridges, who got the Oscar for Crazy Heart with Robert Duvall. But that was a Best Actor Award, not a supporting actor award.

[mellytu74]

Two additions

A-34. MARTIN SHEEN in The Subject Was Roses with Jack Albertson (B-32. THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE)

A-33. DEBORAH KERR in From Here to Eternity with Frank Sinatra (B-67. GUYS AND DOLLS)

And filling in some partials

A-7. DONALD CRISP in The Life of Emile Zola with Joseph Schildkraut (B-49. CLEOPATRA)

A-17. HUGH MARLOWE in Twelve O'clock High with Dean Jagger (B-39. MY SON JOHN)

ARE WE LIMITED TO "SUPPORTING" OSCARS?

Because (and I am reminded of this because of a previous Tangredi puzzle) A-31. CHARLES BICKFORD supported Jane Wyman (B-45. POLLYANNA), Jennifer Jones (B-7. PORTRAIT OF JENNIE) and Loretta Young (B-28. THE BISHOP'S WIFE) in their respective Oscar wins - all Best Actress.

Deborah Kerr - supported David Niven ((B-28. THE BISHOP'S WIFE) and Yul Brynner (B-13. THE TEN COMMANDMENTS) in their respective Best Actor wins as well (to go with Sinatra)

[mellytu74]

A-25. JASON ROBARDS in Julia with Vanessa Redgrave (B-37. CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIGADE)

[mellytu74]

-4. “They scold Bilbo and think they've fought the good fight for democracy in this country. They haven't got the guts to go from talking to action. One little action on one little front. Sure, I know it’s not the whole answer, but it’s got to start somewhere, and it's got to start with passion. Not pamphlets, not even your series. It's got to be with people. Rich people, poor people, big and little people. And it's got to be quick.”

Looked this up for confirmation. It's GENTLEMEN'S AGREEMENT and it will finish our Donald Crisp/Anne Revere match.

[frogman042]

A-14. “Go get the butter.”
Marlon Brando - Last Tango In Paris

A-20. “It was I who first discovered how to make a man impotent by hiding his hat. I was the first one to explain the connection between excessive masturbation and entering politics. It was I who first said that the clitoral orgasm should not be only for women!”
John Carridine - Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex*

A-32. “Point is, what's so wonderful is that every one of these flowers has a specific relationship with the insect that pollinates it. There's a certain orchid looks exactly like a certain insect so the insect is drawn to this flower, its double, its soul mate, and wants nothing more than to make love to it.

And neither the flower nor the insect will ever understand the significance of their lovemaking. I mean, how could they know that because of their little dance the world lives?”
Chris Cooper - Adaptation

A-35. He received four Emmy awards for a series in which he reprised a role first played on film by an actor in one of the preceding clues.
CAROLL O'CONNOR?
More likely Alan Arkin - for portraying Hawkeye Pierce


LIST B: MOVIES

B-26. “I always wanted to go again. You know, it was just so interesting to me that a ride could make me so frightened, so scared, so sick, so excited, and so thrilled all together! Some didn't like it. They went on the merry-go-round. That just goes around. Nothing. I like the roller coaster. You get more out of it.”
Parenthood

B-46. “Hollywood, they make computers scary things. See how this reminds you of a friendly face? That the disk slot is a goofy grin? It's warm and it's playful and it needs to say ‘hello!’”
“The computer in 2001 said ‘hello’ all the time and it still scared the sh*t out of me.”
Steve Jobs

“I have. Now sit down and don't open your mouth again.”
12 Angry Men

[mellytu74]

A-27. CLARK GABLE in GWTW with Hattie McDaniel (B-65. ALICE ADAMS)

Gable's another one with a Best Actor/Actress (Lionel Barrymore - Grand Hotel and Colbert - Cleopatra)

[mellytu74]

A-14. “Go get the butter.”
Marlon Brando - Last Tango In Paris

A-20. “It was I who first discovered how to make a man impotent by hiding his hat. I was the first one to explain the connection between excessive masturbation and entering politics. It was I who first said that the clitoral orgasm should not be only for women!”
John Carridine - Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex*

And that completes Karl Malden (Streetcar)

and gives us

A-20 JOHN CARRADINE in The Grapes of Wrath with Jane Darwell ((B-3. BRIGHT EYES)

[silverscreenselect]

B-27. The author of the novel Psycho stated that his all-time favorite thriller was this French classic – which must surely have annoyed Hitchcock, who had failed to secure the rights to it.

I'm sure this is Diabolique with Simone Signoret. One of the unanswered questions in list A must be Laurence Harvey, who also costerred with Elizabeth Taylor in Butterfield 8 and Julie Christie (Dr. Zhivago) in Darling.

[silverscreenselect]

A-3. In the 1960s, this actor played one role that had earlier been played by Leslie Howard and one role that would later be played by Liev Schreiber.

And sure enough, this is it. Liev Schreiber played Laurence Harvey's character in the remake of the Manchurian Candidate.

[silverscreenselect]

Chris Cooper was in American Beauty with Kevin Spacey (Pay It Forward)

Robert Duvall was in True Grit with John Wayne (High and Mighty)

John Carradine was in Stagecoach with Thomas Mitchell
