Thanks Jim.

I should have known a couple of others, but the rest I never would have gotten. I don't even know if I've seen all the movies.

Let me try a few more ----Ladies only.  Some of these are hard, maybe, just because they are ladies. Don't try and read too much into the full names and the characters usually go by one name or a nickname.

1----Beatrix Kiddo

2---Sarah Conner

3---Rose Dewitt Bukater

4---Francis Houseman

5---Wendy Darling

6--Mia Wallace

7---Eliza Doolittle

8---Catherine Tranell

9---Roxie Hart

10---Charlotte Hollis

Can't anybody get any of mine????????

Jim

I answered the ones I know. The rest, I have no idea. A couple sound familiar but I just don't know.

My streak is over. Missed it. I thought I had it in 6 with Fatal, but I didn't.

Way to go Lou, excellent.

Come on guys, #4 and #6

Honey---I didn't think this would be so tough, so I'll give a huge hint, think James Bond

Melanie--Wow, thought Jim would get this in a minute. Think one of the greatest movies ever made. Second fiddle to the main star.

And still, a few more popular characters

1---Norma Desmond

2--- Pike Bishop

3---Colonel Nicholson

4---Don Lockwood

5---Alex Foley

6---Rose  Sayer  --a toughie

7---Raymond Babbitt

8---Ratso Rizzo

9---Virgil Tibbs

10---Ellen Ripley

going back over some of the ones that I posted, you all got all of these except 7--Raymond Babbitt---Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man

As I was going thru the other thread about movie characters, I really thought about some of the more memorable characters that have lasted for many years with people instantly thinking about this character and knowing exactly who they are.

Hannibal Lector is one that instantly comes to mind. Mention his name and people instantly get the picture of him in their minds

Travis Bickle is another. While people may not remember his name, you mention Taxi Driver, and instantly they know who you are talking about

Michael Corleone is another character that instantly people recognize and know exactly who you are talking about and has never lessened over 50 years.

Harry Callahan is another guy that everyone knows and a certain image always comes to mind when we think of Dirty Harry

I guess we can say the same for James Bond--no matter who plays Bond and who might be your favorite, the character is the same--suave, worldly, fierce, what we will always think of when when secret agent is mentioned.

Seems that most of the characters have been men so let's try a few women. Funny, but many of the hames are great characters, but their names are usually forgotten compared to the men and are a bit harder. Some are easy if you look closely ar their names and some are quite a bit harder, again, being women.

1---Jenny Curran

2---Kathy Selden

3--Mona Lisa Vito

4---Honey Ryder

5---Rosemary Woodhouse

6---Melanie Hamilton

7---Ilsa Lund Laszlo

8---Mrs. Danvers

'9---Leia Organa

10---Marian Crane

No one got  1, 4, 5, and 6 so let's give some easier hints. I included their last names so take away the last names and it should make it a lot easier

1----Jenny -=--------- girlfriend

4---Honey----------  island girl

5--Melanie-----------second fiddle to the famous star

6--Rosemary----------this one should be so easy

1.  Theodore Honey

2.  Sgt. McChesney-- Gunga Din

3.  Ian Malcolm---Jurassic Park

4.    Adam Pontipee--- Seven Brides For Seven Brothers


5.  Charles Ranier

6.  Waldo Lydecker---Laura

7.  Will Lockhart

8.  Dr. Bill Canavan

9.  Mrs. McKlennar

10. Harry Faversham--Four Feathers

11. Alice Sutton

Sorry Jim, these are all I know.

I'll add a couple of my own. I don't think any are too hard and they're from both old and relatively new movies that are some of my favorites:

1 - Rocky Sullivan / Father Jerry== Angels With Dirty Faces


2 - White Goodman---??????????????

3 - Nick & Nora Charles--Thin Man movies

4 - Ruby Roundhouse  --Jumanji  ????

5 - Carl Denham--King Kong

6 - Capt. Jeffery T. Spaulding--Animal crackers

7 - Lawrence Talbot--The Wolfman

8 - Dottie Hinson---=League of their own

You guys got 'em all except #2 - here's a hint:
The movie is a comedy released within the last 20 years. Some of the other characters are Peter LaFleur & Patches O'Houlahan

Sorry Lou, off the top of my ehad, none of the names ring a bell.

Another clue besides Hitchcock has a girlfriend who may be the most beautiful woman Hitch ever used in his movies -- a few times.
