:smack: You know I was just about to ask why there was no love for North by Northwest.

Actually, to be good at Feuds, you have to be able to guess which answers are going to be the most popular. Something that often does NOT coincide with your own favorite answer. At least, that’s how it works for me. Like my favorite Bogey movie is the one with Lauren Bacall, the first they made together when they fell in love. She’s only 21, I think, when that movie was made (maybe even younger!) and he’s so much older than she, but man do they have sexual chemistry out the wazoo!! Hot couple indeed. I think that’s “To have and Have not,” but my poor addled brain can’t remember very well any longer. And Gregory Peck … swoon, you need to see “The Big Country,” which no-one answered (and I figured that, unfortunately); but that’s a great movie! A western, yes, and it also has Charlton Heston. If you have Turner Classic Movies, try to catch it next time it’s on there; it’s fantastic, and you’ll probably recognize the music. 🙂 (Well, maybe if you’re in my age group! LOL).

But thanks for the feud, I really loved playing this one. 🙂

Good catch. I’ll fix it in the morning. I’m getting sloppy, aren’t I? Work has been kicking my butt, and I’m going too fast in compiling answers.

You’ll be glad to know, tomorrow afternoon I start vacation. I’m off for almost three weeks, and will be able to devote more attention to the Feuds!

w00t! 😃

I moved up. Now if I get credit for African Queen I will be above Otak and Worm and all will be right with the world.

Oh, I’m just kidding. I have no one to blame for my shitty score but myself!

Interestingly, if I had gone with my second choice for Brando (The Wild One), or for John Wayne chosen either of the two films I’ve actually seen within the past two years (The Long Voyage Home and Fort Apache), my score would have been exactly the same.
