Note to **Twickster** : the only Gidget I remember is the TV series with Sally Field. Even that was in reruns (I was born in '62).

I’ve not seen that one yet, but unless it’s a huge departure then I’m guessing that Wesley Snipes is in it. 🙂

Even more so when she performs under _that_ name. 😉

Mary McDonnell was in _Passion Fish_ (he says, deftly avoiding KC)

Who turns out to be the best straight (wo)man ever in **Scrooged**.

What? You all know by this time I like cheesy movies.

Poop. Never have a big glass of wine on an empty stomach and then post.

_Hester Street_ (lots of relative unknowns in the cast, but at least one supporting performer who’s instantly recognizable)

“Relative” unknowns? :dubious:

Doris Roberts – her I’ve heard of.

I’ve not heard of that movie, nor anyone in it (save Carol Kane). Don’t know Doris Roberts, either. I do check IMDB for stuff I’ve never heard of, mainly to see why I’ve never heard of it. Then I sit here and wait for one of you other geniuses to come up with something.

Ok, now that I see her picture I know who she is, and I _might_ have been able to tell you that she’s in _Everybody Loves Raymond_ (not a film, folks!). Maybe. She’s one of those faces I know but not terribly sure why.
