1. The three actors on the right are Danny Glover, Ray Liotta, and Denis Leary from the movie _Operation Dumbo Drop_. I believe the connection is that all four actors did an film involving animals “just for the money” (Hurt’s film being “The Plague Dogs”).

5 is solved, 3 is close to solved, and you have all the ingredients for solving #1. Keep trying. There’s a much more obvious connection with one of JH’s other roles.

#1 thought

Glover, Liotta, and Leary were in a film about an elephant, and John Hurt was The Elephant Man…not sure if that helps!

#3 is a 4-door Tucker Torpedo, of which 51 were made.

Is that nitpicky enough? I would think that saying it’s a Tucker would be enough…
