Previous IQs:

Were you the Harvard U. commencement speaker in 1947? - George C. Marshall; he proposed what became the Marshall Plan then
A Cub Scout, did your mom take you to see JFK in a parade a few days before he died? - the mom was Barbara Bush, but the person in question, a Cub Scout at the time, was George W. Bush
Were you that person’s father? - George H.W. Bush, naturally

George x3 redux!

IQs:

Considered a beauty?
Movies in a genre (sf, fantasy, crime, etc.)?
Series was American movies?

Hmm… became famous as a teen in the 2000-2009 time frame, series of films…one of the Harry Potter kids?

Maybe, but Emma Watson was Hermione, and Evanna Lynch was Luna, so it’s not them.

…wouldn’t Bush have been 18 in 1963? That’s a bit too old for a Cub Scout.

Well, 17.

I considered Bush and Bush, but I didn’t think he was young enough to have been a Cub Scout in '63. DLR seems to agree.

Holding off on answering EH’s “Bush” DQs…

I got 1 DQ left if anyone has any ideas.

My knowledge of young 21st century British actresses begins and ends with Emma Watson.

Asking Buck’s DQ: Main character?

[What, you haven’t heard of Millie Bobbie Brown?]

I had read awhile back that Dubya was a Cub Scout when he saw JFK. It seems I was misinformed; I agree the age wouldn’t be right. Question withdrawn.

There was the Narnia series, and Hunger Games, and Twilight, and Percy Jackson…
