Welcome welcome to a new game of Wanted: Dead AND Alive.
I have, for you and only you, carefully selected 54 film stars, and then lovingly and alphabetically divided them into TWO groups. After much thought, I have decided to christen them “Group 1” and Group 2”. Each member of Group 1 is to be paired with a member of Group 2 in the following way: the movie they co-starred together in ended with one of them DEAD and the other one still ALIVE. Name each actor, with the appropriate D or A, and name the movie, as in “William Holden D, Gloria Swanson A, Sunset Boulevard”. Here are several important things.
IMPORTANT THING #1: When I say “co-starred” I mean each actor received either first or second billing on the picture! So, an answer such as “Lee Marvin D, James Stewart A, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance” would be INCORRECT because Marvin was neither first or second billed. Have a look at a movie poster if it’s helpful.
IMPORTANT THING #2: Once again, I’ll keep score. I’ve done my puffed up and prideful best to make sure that every name has only one correct match. But if you catch me on a movie I overlooked that I deem to be correct anyway, you still score a point. One answer is dubbed “Toughest Of The Bunch”, and is worth 2 points! When every movie on the “official list” of 27 titles is identified, I’ll yell “Game Over!”
IMPORTANT THING #3: If you post the same movie twice, just reversing the “D” and the “A”, I’ll have to ignore both posts. So, delete the post you don’t want.
No more than three consecutive posts per player. And one answer per post, please.
One more thing - Don't edit a wrong post. I can't backtrack, so just make a new correct post.
And here are the 2 groups of stars in play:
GROUP 1
JEFF CHANDLER / JOSEPH COTTON / LARAINE DAY / DANIEL DAY-LEWIS / COLIN FARRELL / RALPH FIENNES / HENRY FONDA / CLARK GABLE / TOM HANKS / WILLIAM HOLDEN / GLENDA JACKSON / TOMMY LEE JONES / BORIS KARLOFF / BURT LANCASTER / JACK LEMMON / GINA LOLLOBRIGIDA / CAROLE LOMBARD / FRED MACMURRAY / DEAN MARTIN / CHRIS O’DONNELL / GEORGE PEPPARD / JOAQUIN PHOENIX / ROBERT SHAW / FRANK SINATRA / HILARY SWANK / DAVID WARNER / CORNEL WILDE
