Welcome welcome to a game of “Three’s A Crowd”.
Two rivals for the affection a third person – the “romantic triangle” has been a staple of Hollywood movies since forever. In this game you’ll connect the points of romantic triangles with the meager clues I have provided.
We start with an alphabetical list of 40 actors. Each played either the mutual object of desire in a romantic triangle or played one rival. Then there are two alphabetical lists of the initials of the other actors in the triangle. Create the triangles by listing the named actor and identifying an actor from both List One and List Two. And name the movie. So, if Humphrey Bogart were a named actor, and you saw “IB” on List One and “PH” on List Two, you would respond, Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, Paul Henreid/ Casablanca. If you would not respond Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, Paul Henreid/ Casablanca, you are obviously on the wrong board. Please return to “The Soapbox”, from where you probably came.
A Note On Scoring: I will keep a running tally, while eliminating the named actors and initials, as best I can. Unlike my earlier games, but like my last one, there shall be no unofficial points. Whether a movie has a romantic triangle can be a debatable matter. (Does “Singin’ In The Rain” have one? I say no, but one could argue yes.) But this is no place for debate, so if it’s not on my answer list, it ain’t scorin’ a point. Two answers are dubbed “Toughest Of The Bunch” and are worth two points each.
And in case you’re wondering (and you should be): No actor appears more than once.
OK, then, here are your (now less than) 40 named actors:
To be linked to two more actors, one actor from each list:
LIST ONE
LIST TWO
Forty triangles to be constructed.
As usual, no more than 3 consecutive posts, and one answer per post, please.
Fire when ready. Enjoy (I think?)
