Marquise, wasn't Mia Farrow under consideration for the role of Anne Welles?

[Marquise]

Posted: 2/9/05 at 6:02pm

she was, but that's not it. she's linked to it in various ways.

Okay, I'll try again...


BTW, OKLAHOMA! was shot in Arizona because 20th Century Fox was quoted as stating: "Arizona looks more like Oklahoma than Oklahoma."

Mia Farrow was linked to the movie "Valley of the Dolls". Explain how.

she was directed by Roman Polanski in ROSEMARY'S BABY, and his wife was one of the stars of VALLEY OF THE DOLLS (Sharon Tate)...

now did you guys see my trivia question? not so hard if you read your Playbills...

not only that, andre previn who composed the score for "valley of the dolls" was also her 2nd husband.

so:

Mia Farrow co-starred with Barbara Parkins in "Peyton Place" who went on to star in "Valley of the Dolls" with Sharon Tate, whose husband Roman Polanski directed her in "Rosemary's Baby" and second husband Andre Previn scored the film.

and that's how Mia Farrow is linked to "Valley of the Dolls"

Is it the Richardson/Redgraves? Is Lee Grant playing one of Dinah Manoff's old parts in summer stock?? You must save me from this torment!!

WILDCAT if you look anything like your avatar, you can convince me quickly for more hints. Concentrate on the "small cast, title character" aspect. The character's name has even become somewhat of a catchphrase...

I feel completely brain-dead over this question!!!

[TxTwoStep]

the title role earned its movie interpreter an Oscar for best actress.

This question has taken over my life. I am a broken man.

Is it something breathtakingly obscure like...Tandy Cronyn played the lead in the first ever production of Alfred Uhry's DRIVING MISS DAISY??

[Feodor Sverdlov]

I don't understand this question, at all. Well, I understand the question, just that - oh, never mind! This question gives me excess acid!

[wildcat]

Posted: 2/10/05 at 10:57pm

Me too. And yet Tx seems to have gotten his info from a Playbill. As I'm currently on the other side of the world, will someone please put us out of this misery? MISERY! Kathy Bates has a daughter somewhere who did a stage version....no, I guess not....

Is the mother/daughter question Dana Ivey and her mother...And I think the show was Driving Miss Daisy.

Could someone please tell me the answer to this question because otherwise I'm going to have to give Joan and Melissa Rivers a call...

The mother/daughter question is not clearly stated and thus, difficult to understand.

So, here's an easy one.

Who is the BWW poster of trivia who answers his own questions under another name?

1. Name the member who posts the question, and
2. Name the name used by the same member when he answers himself.

And you're STILL not going to tell us the answer to this #%@*!@* question?????
