Well, my reasoning was, “I’m probably only thinking of those two because I like suspense/horror–people will probably go with other choices.” Still, a fun feud.

**Rebo** , has anyone else done a feud like this but for more modern actors? (I’m assuming someone’s done a classic movies feud female already.)

Not that I remember, but they’re all a blur for me anyway… 😃 I definitely don’t remember a classic movies female. Check the Feud List linked in the OP for the most recent ones.

I love the old movies, and liked this feud. We definitely need a feud for classic actresses.

Hepburn (x2), Davis, Garland, DeHavilland, Field, Crawford, Andrews, Taylor, Rodgers, Bergman, are ten classic actresses that I can think of, but I don’t know what would be their most famous movie.

Well I think I can think of Judy Garland’s most famous movie.

</div>

It’s something to think about. I don’t think I know enough about old movies to do an actress counterpart, but I’ll try and work on a more modern one. Or maybe even a director’s one.

Oxygen! I need Oxygen! That’s why the pie is down in the basement, when you get this high you need oxygen! Can’t eat pie with an oxygen mask on. 😉

Thanks, **Dolores** , and thanks for a fun feud, **Fiddle Peghead**!
