Games: Trivia and Quiz Games : CLASSIC ACTORS A-Z, Part XIII

CLASSIC ACTORS A-Z, Part XIII

Welcome to Part XIII! (Hope nobody's too superstitious to play this round...)

DEFINITION OF SUBJECT

For the purposes of this game, a CLASSIC actor possesses the following qualifications:

1. Must have his/her own page on IMDb
2. Must be either deceased or, if living, over the age of sixty (i.e., born no later than 1956; I won't be picky about the month)
3. Must have at least thirteen acting credits--films & TV movies and series are both acceptable--listed on IMDb; voice-acting (e.g., for animated characters) credits are also acceptable, along with radio programs, stage plays, etc.

ALL ABOUT is represented by the following categories:
Titles of films or TV series; Names of characters; Names of co-stars, directors or writers (for clarification, please give the title of the property in which the actors work together); Personal info (includes physical attributes, birthplace, habits, scandals, family members--but please try not to exceed fifty words per entry).

All info, regardless of category, must be obtainable on IMDb, preferably on the actor's individual page.

RULES
1. Player #1 chooses an actor (whose initial(s)--first or last--may appear anywhere in the alphabet) and posts his/her name in the Subject line.
2. Player #1 then lists one bit of info, chosen from one of the categories listed above, starting with the letter A. Play then passes to Player #2.
3. Player #2, still working with the same actor, lists a different bit of info, starting with the letter B.
4. Play continues through the alphabet, with each player listing a single piece of info per letter.
5. The same category may not be used twice in succession; for example, if the letter C was used to list the name of a character, letter D must not list another character's name (however, letter E may list a character's name; alternating between two categories is acceptable). EXCEPTION: If a title is used for one entry, a title may also be used for the next entry--ONLY if the two titles are of different media. Example: if A is the title of a theatrical movie, B may be the title of a TV series (or a radio show, a stage production, etc.).
6. The player posting an entry for Z (if one can be found; see NOTE below) may either start the next round by posting the name of a new actor/actress, or declare the next round Up for Grabs (UFG).
7. When the category Titles is chosen, beginning articles (A, An, or The) may (and in fact should) be ignored. Example: A Question of Values should be entered not under A, but rather under Q.
8. When listing the name of a character, co-star, director, or writer, please identify the work in which s/he appeared or with which s/he was associated. This is not required, but it would be a courtesy to other players.

NOTE: Entries for Q, X, and Z may be difficult to find. If, after honest effort, a player cannot locate an appropriate item, s/he should simply state Not Found. That same player may then take the next letter. This represents one of the only three exceptions to the rule of one letter per player. The other exceptions, of course, occur as follows: when the person posting the entry for Z wishes to start the next round; or when at least twenty-four hours have passed since the most recent posting. After that passage of time, anyone may post, even if s/he was the previous poster.

TIPS FOR DIFFICULT LETTERS: If you find yourself stuck for a Q, you may use QUOTE--always providing that IMDb has posted at least one quote from, or about, the actor currently in play, or from one of the actor's works. Also: if you are stumped for an X, it is permissible to use a word such as eXcellent or eXceptional, as long as (1) the X comes second in the word, and (2) you are specific. In other words, don't just state that the actor in question was/is eXceptional (that's probably a given in this game); tell us what you find exceptional about him or her. Lastly, if Y is not readily available, the poster may fall back on YOUTUBE, as long as at least one of the actor's performances can be found there (it need not be an entire film or TV episode).

All right, then--let's start off with a wonderfully talented actress (who recently celebrated her 100th birthday!): Miss OLIVIA De HAVILLAND.
