Name the actor by surnames of roles played

Benedict
Fries
Kimble
Matrix
Quaid
Tasker

Alec Baldwin. My favorite movie of his is Thick as Thieves (1998) where even though his name is Mackin he’s always referred to as The Thief. Andre Braugher makes the movie, though. And the dog.

The Governator himself. Mr. Barbarian.

Never mind.

Repeating for the new page. Still to be guessed.

I never even heard anyone say the name “Blake” in “Glengarry Glen Ross,” but practically everyone can spout off Blake’s lines!

Very rarely does such a small role dominate a movie. The entire cast was great, but Baldwin’s is the most memorable character by far.

Yep.

Agreed! That’s a great movie. Mamet’s stuff usually is.

I probably made that one too easy.
#33

You think incorrectly. From the linked page:

My Aunt Karen knew a man named Fred Golightly – to hear her tell it, he was the epitome of the “Southern-fried gentleman”, greeting her with a “Howdy-do, Miss Karen!”

Here’s Puzzle #34:

Carter
Sharp
Green
Woods
Walker
Williams

William Holden?

Oh, and Zeldar is right about Julia Roberts.

Yep. I could have found obscure roles he played, but those were Sunset Blvd., Stalag 17, The Bridge on the River Kwai, The Wild Bunch, The Towering Inferno, and Network.

John Lithgow?

Yes. What gave it away?

Some intense searching through the Character Search function at IMDB! :smiley:

It took Zell, I think, (I tried each name and ran into some hits with over a page of actors – most of whom I had never heard of) or maybe Muldoon.

No clear hits on my memory from any of them, which is the mark of a good set of clues.

Right now, Sternvogel’s #34 has me totally buffaloed. Some too common names with no immediate triggers at all. Oddly enough I have found two and one case three names on an actor’s page only to run into a wall. But I’ll keep looking until somebody else beats me to it.

My #25 must be working in a similar fashion – if it wasn’t just overlooked TWICE.

I’ve been trying not to solve them through sheer, technological brute force. #8 included “Coyle”, which made me think of The Friends of Eddie Coyle, which led me to Robert Mitchum. And scrolling through his IMDb entry I found a “Kane” as well, but that was as far as I got. There was a “Gillis” earlier on, too, which led me to Sunset Blvd. (and it was just on one of the classics channels a few days ago); not right, but I came back to it later.

In the early 90’s, the revival theater in Seattle used to include a game in their upcoming schedules. I still remember one of them was to name as many movies as possible with months in the title. (March or Die would count, When Willie Comes Marching Home wouldn’t.) Then the IMDb came along and they don’t play that game anymore.

Or maybe I’m just old.
