Hi People.

4.  Jimmy Stewart - Mr. Smith Goes to Washington
8.  Gary Sinise - Apollo 13
10.  Geena Davis - The Long Kiss Goodnight

#13 Jack Nicholson  " A Few Good Men"
#18 Jodi Foster  "Silence of the Lambs"
#24 Emilio Estevez  "The Mighty Ducks"

Kenny,

Three for three. Pretty easy, huh?

Julie,

You too, well done.

Hitch

#3 Humphrey Bogart or Harrison Ford-Sabrina



Cat

Cat,

Absolutely correct. I have often thought that Ford is the only person who can pull off a Bogart re-make.

Hitchy

#1. Bruce Willis - "The Fifth Element"
#19. Anne Archer - "Patriot Games" & "Clear and Present Danger"
#25. Meg Ryan - "You've Got Mail"

15.  Carly Lowell -- License to Kill

In my opinion, the worst Bond movie of all time after "The Man With The Golden Gun"  :P


oh yeah...

12.  Kevin Costner -- JFK

5. Peter Sellers-Dr. Strangelove or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Loved The Bomb
7. Jack Lemmon-Mister Roberts

Valentin,
All three right. I don't know who plays Kathy in "The Sum of All Fears", if she features at all.

Rice Cube,
No.15: Correct film, but her first name is not Carly. I agree with your sentiments.
No.12: Correct.

Goreripper,
Both right

Indy Gent,
Both right

#22 is Diana Rigg in "On Her Majesty's Secret Service".

The only woman who James Bond married, I believe I'm right in saying, although it didn't last long as she was shot dead in their car while driving off on honeymoon....

Hi Gore!!

Is #6 The Party / Peter Sellers?

Maddog,

I think it's a moot point to tell you that #22 is correct. Tracey is indeed shot dead by Ernst Stavro Blofeld, whilst in the background, Louis Armstrong sings "We Had All the Time in the World". Most notably, Bond can be seen placing flowers on Tracey's grave in the opening shots of For Your Eyes Only.

Jonman,

#6 is correct and a good get. Birdy Num Num!!

Hitchy

I believe 23 is Sean Connery in The Untouchables, although he is known as Jimmy Malone.

Anna Scott - Julia Roberts - Notting Hill

#16 has been driving me mad because it's such an unusual name (Sturgeon Panner? Turgeon Spanner?)....but it's just come to me...it's Robert Duvall in "Deep Impact", the old astronaut guy who convinces the rest of the spaceship crew to sacrifice themselves by blowing up the second asteroid that's on a collision course with Earth, thereby Saving The World.

Indy Gent,
Correct. Ness calls him "Malone" and his corrupt cop friend calls him "Jimmy". The only time he is called "James" is when Ness tells him that he named his new-born son "John James", the second name after Malone.

Berkley98,
Correct. I was going to use the Hugh Grant character but I could only remember "William".

Maddog,
Correct. You will remember that they "called me Fish at the academy: Spurgeon - sturgeon - Fish".

11.  Michael Caine -- Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
17.  Jamie Lee Curtis -- Fierce Creatures

---cornboy98

G'day, Cornboy

You are correct on both counts. Well done

Hitchy

20. Maureen O'Hara - The Quiet Man (with John Wayne)
21. Jimmy Stewart - The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (I think that's the name of the movie)

CS,

Both correct.

And that, as they say, is the ball game!
