INTRODUCTION:
Next round about Filmmakers and their Performers -- Actresses Turn
_____________________________________________________________________
SONG: (Vocals by the Pompeii Club Chorus)
The minute you walked on this board
I could tell you were a real Big Player
A true Film Expert -- knows Classics, quick to find
An Oscar winner like Lukas in WATCH ON THE RHINE
So let me get right to your points
I don't pop my cork for every D-D-C
Hey Big Player
Spend a Matt Garth Game with me

QUOTE:
"She's not a military strategist -- she's just an ACTRESS."
'Lieut. Archie Hicox' (Michael Fassbender) in INGLORIOUS BASTERDS
*********************************************************************
SET-UP:
-- Alphabetically and numerically listed below in BLUE are 160 FILM DIRECTORS.
-- Two of the FILMMAKERS can be linked in a unique way.
-- They have both directed the same ACTRESS to two of her multiple (three or more) OSCARED (Winning or Nominated) performances.
-- ONE time only for ACTRESS/DIRECTOR nomination collaboration (Ex. Meryl Streep -- two nominations with Mike Nichols not included).
-- All ACTRESSES have been career nominated at least THREE times (Ex. Vivien Leigh -- with only two nominations not included).
-- Final Filmmaker/Performer contest will follow.
_____________________________________________________________________
CHALLENGE:
-- Match both FILMMAKERS and their shared ACTRESS and identify both FEATURE FILM Titles.
-- A posting example is given below.
-- Just one answer per post, and only three consecutive responses allowed before another player participates.
-- Scores will appear below in PURPLE.
-- Duplicate posts will be determined by the earlier time stamp.
-- DIRECTORS will be re-united in RED, along with the ACTRESS and the name of the clever player who linked them.
**********************************************************************
EXAMPLE:
164. JOHN HUSTON / 176. WILLIAM WELLMAN
Place both NUMBERS and their shared ACTRESS in the Message Box first.
Ex.: 164 / 176 -- CLAIRE TREVOR
Place both Oscar Nominated Performance TITLES with DIRECTORS (Last Names will suffice) in the Message Box second.
Ex.: KEY LARGO (Huston) / THE HIGH AND THE MIGHTY (Wellman)
**********************************************************************
EQUATIONS:
a) Questions -- 30% Easy / 30% Challenging / 30% Difficult / 10% Impossible
b) Answers -- 99% Absolutely Accurate / 01% Garth Gaffe (Advance Apology Extended)
NOTATIONS:
NTA = Not the Answer / KP = Keep Pursuing (On the Right Track) / QS = Quit Searching (Down the Wrong Path)
** = Double Digit CLub (DDC) Membership Post / LLS = Last Link Standing
STATISTICS:
160 FILMMAKERS / 80 OSCARED (W or N) ACTRESSES / 160 Feature Film Titles
**********************************************************************
QUIZMASTER'S MANIFESTO:
-- The QM will always offer warm welcomes to incoming players and helpful hints for incorrect answers.
-- Beyond that, the Quizmaster may not always respond to every post.
-- Not being unfriendly, just utilizing the time more efficiently by keeping the Scoreboard Up-To-Date (UTD).
-- Besides it's too boring to keep responding 'Yes' to every answer, and too many posts may scare off potential players.
-- The Scoreboard will tell the tale, but be patient about those updates as the QM thinks and types slowly.
-- Do you want 'em fast or accurate? (I don't do both)
-- Comments on Correct Answers (a player's first and sometimes after several attempts) will always be entered ALL IN CAPS!!!
-- Only one matchup can be correct (MINE -- it's good to be the Quizmaster) in order to avoid creating 'Orphans.'
-- When posting traffic is heavy, Scores will be entered in groups of five, and incorrects (NTAs and 'Halfers') will be bundled.
-- Be sure to number correctly to save wear and tear on the QM and his beleaguered Staff.
-- Do not return to correct a previous post, as this vehicle cannot make U-turns.
