Re: Movies that came out your birth year
All I will say is that it hasn't been the same since they took the Wurlitzers out of the pit at the front and put that weird sound equipment in......

Re: Movies that came out your birth year
I would've guessed 1951...since that's when Vivien Leigh (born in Darjeeling) won her 2nd Oscar for "A Streetcar Named Desire"...possibly robbing Gloria Swanson for her 1950 film "Sunset Boulevard"....but I couldn't find a director's daughter being murdered. Alfred Hitchcock did have a daughter in a 1951 "murder" movie - "Strangers on a Train"...but she wasn't the victim in the movie.
Back to the drawing board.

Re: Movies that came out your birth year
Ouch! Because of the 'doubles' theme in Strangers on a Train, and the fact that I haven't see it for a while, I mistook Miriam for Barbara although there is supposed to be a connection ("His hands were on her neck, but he was strangling me." as Barbara says after the party scene) -so I guess I was being 'liberal' with the descriptions. Otherwise, yes, Gloria Swanson was robbed of an Oscar, Vivien Leigh won an Oscar for Streetcar, and someone resembling the actress daughter of Alfie was murdered on screen...and the actor who played Bruno in Alfie's film, died at the age of 32 from a bad reaction to drugs administered to soothe a panic attack...

Re: Movies that came out your birth year
lol...I'm not even going to tell you how much extra time that little oopsy caused me on the internet just to double and triple check other avenues...after all,you could have been way older than I thought. The key years were 1927,1930, 1939 and 1951...with '51 having the only seeming tie in with a play on words with murder...I was even checking if any directors had daughters die in the holocaust...
..the nerd factoid I got out of this was that Robert Walker (Bruno) was the father of Robert Walker Jr...He's the one every true blue Star Trek fan remembers as " Charlie"...the skinny kid who rolls his eyes up into his head to make bad shit happen on the Enterprise.
Thanks for the puzzle. Glad to hear you're younger than my father after all.

Never heard of Charlie but then I have avoided Star Trek since it started. And for the record, I am not in the Departure Lounge...as far as I know...
