2. This character actor X has co-starred with Jimmy Dean in both Rebel without a Cause and Giant – he also happened to be in with Natalie Wood, only to (purportedly) walk in on her and Nicholas Ray (she 16, Ray 43 at this point of time). He was hot for a while, and then his career petered out in the 80s, until a role in 1986 movie Y revitalized (good dose of oxygen even) his career, and also possibly caused him to slum for the next twenty years in similar roles. Apart from a long (not necessarily always distinguished) acting career, he also directed a handful, his first being the most famous. Homeless (2000) Chasers (1994) The Hot Spot (1990) Catchfire (1990) (as Alan Smithee) Colors (1988) Out of the Blue (1980) The Last Movie (1971) Z (not the Costa-Gravas film) Name X, movie Y and his directorial debut Z. 1
5. X is a favourite of the Coen Bros., part of their clique of actors in the old days. He also happens to be a favourite of Spike Lee, appearing in Miracle at St. Anna, Clockers and Do the Right Thing , amongst other things. Probably best known for a lead role in a Palm D’Or winner (for which he also won Best Actor), his first (uncredited) role was as an extra in Raging Bull. Who, and name the Cannes winner. 2
23. He had a film acting career that spanned over 50 years and topped the 400 movie mark. Name him, the movie shown on the left and his younger brother who is also an actor. 8
26. The actor on the right apparently holds or once held a Guinness record. Name him and name his daughter (on the next slide), popular in Hindi films in the 1980s. 9
29. Jagdish Raj, the most typecast actor: 144 movies as police inspector. His daughter is Anita Raj.
30. “ Marxist who made it good in the movies”, “The Genial Revolutionary”, Padmabhushan awardee, Karachi native, started his movie career at around the age of 50. In 1993 he had applied for a visa to visit his birthplace in Pakistan. Consequently, the embassy invited him to Pakistan Day celebrations, which he attended. On cue, the Shiv Sena took offence and Bal Thackeray wrote “______ deshdrohi hai” (in his newspaper Samna ). Who? 10
