author	topic: TRIVIA GAME: Actresses and their roles
woozy	post #1  on September 7, 2007 - 12:52 PM PDT   1)What role was played by bothe Jo-Carrol Dennisson and Madonna? 2)By Madonna and Faye Dunnaway[*]? 3)By Faye Dunnaway and Kim Bassinger[**]? 4)By Kim Bassinger and Melissa George? 5)By Melissa George and Diana Barton? 6)By Diana Barton and Isabelle Huppert[**]? [*] "Madonna and Faye Daunnaway played her" was a clue in an accrostic I was doing and that clue inspired this game. [**] Question 6 and 3 both have a footnote for a reason. What is that reason?
woozy	post #2  on September 9, 2007 - 2:36 AM PDT   A) By Jessica Lange and Beverley D'Angelo?[*] B) By Beverley D'Angelo and Kim Hunter?[**] C) By Kim Hunter and Helena Bonham Carter?[***] D) By Helena Bonham Carter and Angela Lansbury?[****] [*] Inspired by another accrostic. (This one is easy.) [**]This one's even easier. [***] This is either hard or easy depending on whether you are a big fan of one or both of these actresses. Technically this isn't the same role but c'mon, it's really the same role. And it's utterly impossible to resist this role to link Kim Hunter to this ... unforgettable ... role of the usually divine Ms. Carter. [****]This one is hard. Unless you follow the hint. Connecting Helena Bonham Carter to Angela Lansbury is certainly irressitable if possible. Hint: Elsewhere on these boards I did a comparison of Goerge Hearn to Johnny Depp to Gene Wilder to Mathew Broderick in common roles. This link is very similar to one part of that link.
woozy	post #3  on September 9, 2007 - 2:48 AM PDT   By Vivienne Leigh and Marge Simpson? (An easy one {if you are a Simpson Fan} and a Hint to an easy one above.) By Marge Simpson and Jenny Mollen? (A preposterously hard one, even if you are a Simpsons fan. Think ... tree-house...)
woozy	post #4  on September 9, 2007 - 3:05 AM PDT   Okay, maybe I'm being sleep deprived but: By Marge Simpson, Eileen Herlie (twice!), and Glenn Close? (One of my favorite Simpsons' bit!) Hint in the same things, roles were shared by: Lisa Simpson, Jean, Simmons, Linda Marsh, and Helena Bonham Carter. Bart Simpson, Laurence Olivier, Richard Burton, and Mel Gibson. Moe Sizlak, Basil Sydney, Alfred Drake, and Alan Bates.

Either that or they share a Shakespeare role, though I don't think Lansbury did Twelfth Night. Oooh, they were both in Sweeney Todd! (Carter's hasn't come out yet...)

You've actually seen the short film The Raven (which gets a 1.1) on IMDB? Yowsa.

This was the easiest one for me ^_^ Unless I'm wrong and it's NOT Lenore (The Raven) > --------------------------------- Yes! Very good! I guess I wasn't thinking of the Halloween story vignettes very much at the time I posted. (The Marge Simpson and Vivienne Leigh role is *not* a story vignette.) But by the time I posted the other Marge Simpson questions they became obvious. Marge as Lenore (portrait only) I thought was obscure as was the Jenny Mollen Raven. > On September 10, 2007 - 12:45 PM PDT underdog wrote: > --------------------------------- > > On September 9, 2007 - 2:36 AM PDT woozy wrote: > > --------------------------------- > > C) By Kim Hunter and Helena Bonham Carter?[***] > > Easy!

The Simpson's musical was "Stop the Planet of the Apes; I want to get Off". Dr. Zegas had a few lines but did we hear Dr. Zira say anything? > > D) By Helena Bonham Carter and Angela Lansbury?[****] > > > Oooh, they were both in Sweeney Todd!

woozy	post #9  on September 10, 2007 - 2:44 PM PDT   RECAP: 1)What role was played by bothe Jo-Carrol Dennisson and Madonna? 2)By Madonna and Faye Dunnaway? 3)By Faye Dunnaway and Kim Bassinger[**]? (Why the footnote?) 4)By Kim Bassinger and Melissa George? 5)By Melissa George and Diana Barton? 6)By Diana Barton and Isabelle Huppert[**]? (Why the footnote?) A) By Jessica Lange and Beverley D'Angelo?(easy) B) By Beverley D'Angelo and Kim Hunter?(easier) C) By Kim Hunter and Helena Bonham Carter?(Dr. Zira/Ari in Planet of the Apes) D) By Helena Bonham Carter and Angela Lansbury?(Mrs. Lovette in Sweeney Todd) By Vivienne Leigh and Marge Simpson? (easy if you are a Simpsons fan. A clue to one of the above clues. *NOT* a halloween story or any other type of story vignette.) By Marge Simpson and Jenny Mollen? (Leanore of The Raven) All from the same sources: post #4 on September 9, 2007 - 3:05 AM PDT Okay, maybe I'm being sleep deprived but: By Marge Simpson, Eileen Herlie (twice!), and Glenn Close? Lisa Simpson, Jean, Simmons, Linda Marsh, and Helena Bonham Carter. Bart Simpson, Laurence Olivier, Richard Burton, and Mel Gibson. Moe Sizlak, Basil Sydney, Alfred Drake, and Alan Bates. And here's a new one (actor not actress): By Ned Flanders, Alec Baldwin, and THOMAS JOHSUA (THOMAS JOHSUA is encrypted by a letter by letter substitution to keep this from being *too* ridiculously easy.)
woozy	post #10  on September 10, 2007 - 2:48 PM PDT   Ooh, for the TRUE Simpson fan what role was played by both Ned Flanders AND Marge Simpson. This one's tough.

Moe played Claudius in Bart Simpson's Hamlet (one of my favorite bits "Oh, great. Now Hamlet's acting funny. Well, No-Body out-crazies Ophelia! Hey-Nonny nonny, whoa, hey,... *splash*" And "So, I've put poison on the weapons, the cups, the food the drapes, and even on RosenCarl and GilderLenny" "If Hamlet touches either of us, he's a goner!" "BOOYEAH!" *high five each other and drop dead*) Basil Sydney in Laurence Oliver's Hamlet, Alfred Drake in Richard Burton's Hamlet, and Alan Bates in Mel Gibson's Hamlet. The other roles were obviously therefore, Gertrude, Hamlet, and Ophelia in the same sources. Special mention should go to Police Chief Wiggum as Polonius "I hid in the curtains because I have a fear of being stabbed".
woozy	post #13  on September 10, 2007 - 10:19 PM PDT   Oooh, Here's a super hard one By Ralph Wiggum and Ioann Gruffudd? And here's two super easy ones: Ralph Wiggum and R.E. Wiggam, and Barry Bostick? Milhouse van Houten and Steve Jansen?

It's Lancelot. Ioann Gruffud was in King Arthur! > --------------------------------- Huh? How on earth did you get that? It's casually mentioned in one episode when Marge asks of a professional (rather than a school) production of Camelot, "Was that any good? Because to me Ralph Wiggum will alwasy be Sir Lancelot." Good job! Since you can do the hard ones try some of the easy ones.
