Guess that actor/actress!

The Game Room
1

I have an idea for an acting related thread. It’s also a game, so this could be moved, but that’s fine with me.

What one does is name several roles a certain actor/actress has played, without giving the name of the character. Then the rest of us guess the actor, without, I may add, Googling or going to IMDB. Of course there’s no way to prevent “research” but is a game with no prizes worth it?:D:p

An example would be

Kansas farm girl
Harvey Girl waitress
St. Louis teeneager

And the answer, or course, would be Judy Garland.

When you have made your correct answer, post a set of roles of your own.

I’ll start off with the following:

Catholic monsignor
French ambassador to the court of Catherine the Great
French lawyer
Joseph Smith

2

Vincent Price?

Presidential assassin, failed
Presidential assassin, successful
Vampire
Wizard

3

John Malkovich

FBI analyst
Drug dealer
Ruler of Jerusalem
Schizo-pugilist

4

Edward Norton

Prisoner
Gold Miner
Disk Jockey
Trucker

Yep to Vincent Price. I almost included Egyptian architect as well, but that might have made it too easy.
