OK, this question started in the "riddles" thread, but it's more apt here: who played the Capt. and Mrs. Armstrong (Charles and Anne Lindbergh analogues) in Murder on the Orient Express? The Armstrongs are only seen in newsreel or newspaper pictures, but the kidnapping of their daughter sets up the plot. .JPG) Neither IMDb nor the BFI has information. Anyone know who played them? ETA: Now that I think of it, they were actually seen in genuine film footage. |

NalkarjIn honor of this thread (and riddles) I watched the Finney and the Suchet versions today. Suchet still wins ! Voting for both of the Armstrongs being played by extras. Negative votes for the headlines screaming about "Baby Daisy" as she is at the very least 5 or 6 years old and as such no "baby".

If David Kernan is indeed the Sleuth singer—what are we to do for entertainment?

We could discuss private and personal gossip about long dead celebrities or discuss Hollywood Babble-On chapter by chapter. Nah … there's another board SPECIFICALLY DEDICATED to that ! Guess we'll just have to find another mystery worthy of your efforts.
I KNOW, Nalkarjwe could research books with dragons on the covers ! |
