Very good, Gant! I thought that one might take longer.

What puzzler have you got for us next?

Godard, eh? And I suppose you want him as an actor ... and you probably want an on-screen role, not just a "voice"?  ???

Oh, wait, this one is real easy. It's one of Godard's best-known films ... À bout de souffle (Breathless, 1960). Godard had a small onscreen role, but the female lead was taken by Jean Seberg (Paint Your Wagon).



Man, I was flailing around in the IMDb there for a while like a Yankee facing Pedro.  :o

OK, for a new one, how about Sting? I understand he's made some sort of a name for himself as a singer/songwriter, but he's also acted in a few movies. ;)

Ah, finally one I can do! Sting acted in Dune, with Everett McGill, who appeared in Heartbreak Ridge! :)

Ok...this one isn't too hard, but there are more ways than one to make this connection.

Elizabeth Taylor

As I'm new to this, it will take me a while to find a really hard one...

Ok Gant, that wasn't the connection I was thinking of, but it will do! ;)

Ok this is a long-winded connection, so I suppose it isn't right, but...

Toyah Wilcox starred in Quadrophenia, with Sting. Sting starred in Dune, with Everett McGill, who starred in Heartbreak Ridge.

Alternatively...I can't think of one!

There's a better way, Ally ... further down in the Quadrophenia cast list, we also find the celebrated Timothy Spall (the comical bush pilot in White Hunter, Black Heart).

Assuming mine trumps Ally's ... and going back to the "great directors" theme that Gant initiated with Godard (or resumed, after Polanski a few pages back) ... how about Orson Welles? As an actor; must be an onscreen role; and made for TV things don't count. ;)

 Nice try ally....  but Spall was my connection, I've used him loads of times. Great actor.

Right.  ;D ;D Finally I get to say it.

Orson was in a movie called I'll Never Forget What's'isname...... along with MICHAEL HORDERN  who was simply fantastic in Where Eagles Dare  ;)
