Time’s up! Please have your final “Are you Firstname Lastname?” questions in by 6pm EST tomorrow.

I’m drawing a blank.

I’m guessing she’s from a specific movie I have heard of but never seen because it is the only comedy anthology movie I can think of.

As always, feel free to talk among yourselves and share info.

Are you thinking of Four Rooms? That’s the only comedy anthoogy I’m remembering, but it’s outside of the time frame.

I was thinking Kentucky Fried Movie.

Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex * But Were Afraid to Ask is the only comedy anthology I can think of, and I’m pretty sure it’s from before 1975.

Kentucky Fried Movie was 77…

Groove Tube was 74.

I haven’t a clue as well

If someone has a good guess they are welcome to my final DQ

And mine.
