Jadarville | Friday, October 05, 2001 - 11:19 am     first one is Mork and Mindy, second Popeye don't know the others |
Donut | Friday, October 05, 2001 - 03:31 pm     blonde, robin was a truly great one- i got it after a bunch of thinking and a little help from my husband, before we scrolled down and saw the answers. here is the whole list: Mork and mindy Popeye the world according to garp Moscow on the hudson Mrs D Goodwill Hunting Patch Adams I also loved garp and moscow! Is the other one possibly Al Pacino? |
Blonde | Friday, October 05, 2001 - 07:06 pm     Donut you are absolutely right! Do you know Al's movie list? |
Blonde | Friday, October 05, 2001 - 07:29 pm     Jadarville, 2 points for Mork & Mindy and Popeye. I remember when Popeye came out. People thought Robin was a comic genius but only had a future playing freaky characters so prospects were dim for a successful movie career. Boy were they wrong! |
Blonde | Friday, October 05, 2001 - 09:02 pm     A new one: Girl starts out as a dental assistant, then gets a makeover with a little help from her hairdresser. She briefly serves as a paratrooper, then realizes her dreams of wealth when she takes up residence on a yacht. In her later years she's a movie star and women's rights activist. |
Donut | Friday, October 05, 2001 - 09:09 pm     blonde, was i right about robin or pacino? if its pacino, my husband gets the credit and we are still stuck on a couple of those movies. This new one is hard- it seems like Demi Moore, GI Jane and Indecent Proposal, maybe Striptease,but cant figure out the rest |
Donut | Friday, October 05, 2001 - 09:22 pm     ok i should do one for you now, since no one seems to be at the Mole board-- ok, this one went from being confused about life and love, to being a great parent, to being a great actress, to being physically challenged, to being mentally challenged to being a film producer. |
Spygirl | Friday, October 05, 2001 - 10:20 pm     Okay! We got bored in chat tonight and decided to answer one of these things -- and WOW -- they are tough!!! Blonde -- here is our answer for yours: Goldie Hawn: Cactus Flower Shampoo Private Benjamin Overboard First Wives Club Town & Country Although...the last one gave us fits and we wavered on it. Signed, SpyGirl Tess Buttercup Wargod |
Blonde | Friday, October 05, 2001 - 10:27 pm     Donut, Al Pacino is the guy. And you got Robin and all his movies correct. But Demi Moore is not the girl. She's older than Demi. Hints for Al: The first one is one of his first movies, maybe his first starring role, around 1971 or so. I saw it at the drive-in as a teenager! The one in England is an evil king based on a play by Shakespeare. This was Al's pet project, which he had the clout to have made after winning the Oscar. I probably made this one too hard but I used to be really into Shakespeare when I was in school. And Al used to go on and on about this in interviews so I took interest when he finally got it on film. Now I have to think about yours ... |
Blonde | Friday, October 05, 2001 - 10:33 pm     Spygirl Team - you are right - good work!! Except I didn't have Town & Country on my list. The women's right activist is the First Wives Club, in which Goldie played a movie star who formed the women's rights group. So I guess you get a bonus point!! |
Donut | Friday, October 05, 2001 - 10:58 pm     goldie was a great one! i didnt know what you meant when you said Al's movies . I thought it said AI like artificial intelligence! My hub knew some of the movies, i forgot to put them down- i think the first was panic in needle park or something like that, the US empire is Godfather, not sure about the Marines one, and maybe the last is Scent of a Woman? Oh, i forgot , we knew richard the third ( is it third) before all the hints! I should just cheat and go to the IMDB site to find the Marine movie but that would spoil the fun! |
Blonde | Friday, October 05, 2001 - 11:15 pm     Donut, Panic in Needle Park is right You are almost right on the U.S. Empire one. Richard III is right, actually it's Looking for Richard, which is a film about making an adaptation of Richard III I think. The last one is not Scent of a Woman. Yours was very tricky! I was thrown off by the "great actress", and couldn't think of a woman who played both an actress and a producer. Then I noticed the clue was gender neutral and rethought it based on who played mentally challenged roles: Dustin Hoffman a.k.a. "Tootsie"! Here are my guesses for the roles, if it is Dustin: The Graduate Kramer vs. Kramer Tootsie Hook Rainman Wag the Dog |
Blonde | Friday, October 05, 2001 - 11:39 pm     A girl fights off a madman at sea, is a doctor for a while, then decides she will do anything to become a TV star. Her flirting and fantasies get her into trouble and she ends up doing musical theater in Europe. |
Donut | Saturday, October 06, 2001 - 12:02 am     blonde you are brilliant! Dustin Hoffman all correct! you are keeping me up too late and you are probably west coast with 3 hrs to go before you are up this late! your new one is really hard-main stream or indie? |
Buttercup | Saturday, October 06, 2001 - 12:05 am     Nicole Kidman Dead Calm Days of Thunder To Die for Eyes Wide Shut Moulin Rouge Signed Buttercup Tess Wargod |
Donut | Saturday, October 06, 2001 - 12:10 am     buttercup and friends are on a roll on both threads! this is weird, i just posted to tell delilah that i had a dream last nite that will was going out with nicole kidman, now she is in my game! Did anyone ever see her first movie Flirting- she has a kind of small role, but it was a great movie, (Australian) |
Blonde | Saturday, October 06, 2001 - 12:24 am     Yeah, I'm on the West Coast. We're behind the rest of America on everything but we can stay up late - hehe! The Dustin Hoffman one was a brilliant idea on your part, Donut. Buttercup and crew score again! I can't believe I missed Cinderella on the other thread! Both the Disney and Lesley Ann Warren versions were all time childhood favorites of mine. |
Blonde | Saturday, October 06, 2001 - 12:27 am     OK, I have another one for you all: This girl spent a weird night at a spooky house, had a photogenic daughter, and found an unusual use for citrus fruit. She then dabbled in black magic, but after that found religion and then faced her own mortality. |
Blonde | Saturday, October 06, 2001 - 12:32 am     Remember to finish the Al Pacino list, too. Resume: A young heroin addict later joins the Marines and becomes a war hero. Upon his return he rules over evil empires in the U.S. and England. In later life he redeems himself by risking his life and career for his principles helping an honest man be heard. Addict = Panic in Needle Park Marine War Hero = unsolved U.S. Evil Empire = The Godfather is close. England = Looking for Richard Redeems himself helping an honest man = unsolved |
Donut | Saturday, October 06, 2001 - 12:40 am     thanks blonde! godfather 2 ? Heres another one: he died he cried he worked outside he lied he took a couple rides. |
Blonde | Saturday, October 06, 2001 - 12:50 am     You're right, Donut, GF2 is the U.S. evil empire. Hint for #2: The character first appears at a family gathering. |
Blonde | Saturday, October 06, 2001 - 12:55 am     You're not giving me much to go on in your new one, Donut! I thought of another one, too. He started out on the farm, then became the man many women want to find, then the man too many women fall for, then a downright deadly psycho, and finally ended up becoming himself. |
Donut | Saturday, October 06, 2001 - 12:56 am     she had a brother she had a mother(movie was about her but she was not in it) |
Blonde | Saturday, October 06, 2001 - 01:14 am     OK, Donut I'm going to guess at one of these and then force myself to go to bed! If you're not still up, I'll catch you tomorrow. Johnny Depp? He died: Edward Scissorhands He cried: Cry Baby He worked outside: don't know this one He lied: Donnie Brasco Took a couple of rides: Legend of Sleepy Hollow or The Astronaut's Wife |
Blonde | Saturday, October 06, 2001 - 01:19 am     Well one more guess at your other one: Frances Farmer? The movie was Frances with Jessica Lange. I think her mother had her committed if I remember right. Don't remember the brother, but it's been a long time since I've seen it. |
