I don't think I have ever seen My Favorite Year. Personally, I never liked Peter O Toole, except for Lawrence. Probably why I never saw it. He just irks me the wrong way.

Also, Places in the Heart. I have seen that once,  but would never know the characters.

Sorry

You'd like him in "My Favorite Year."  It's a terrific movie, especially if you're from New York.  Give it a shot.

Here is a different twist on this

I'll give you the character and you tell me the movie, but all the characters were played by Jimmy Cagney

1---'Biff' Grimes   STRAWBERRY BLOND

2---Jerry Plunkett   THE FIGHTING 69TH

3---Rhinelander Waldo

4---George M Cohan (2 movies)   I'M A YANKEE DOODLE DANDY; THE SEVEN  LITTLE FOYS (Terrific dance with Bob Hope & him.)

5---Martin Snyder

6---Rocky Sullivan  ANGELS WITH DIRTY FACES

7---Cody Jarrett    WHITE HEAT 

8---Capt Morton   MR. ROBERTS

9---'Bull' Halsey   THE GALLANT HOURS

10---Lon Chaney   MAN OF A THOUSAND FACES

11---Eddie Bartlett

12---Rocky Sullivan   ANGELS WITH DIRTY FACES  (Same as above.)

Niven wasn't in "El Cid."  Think China.

1.  Edna Spalding

2.  Alan Swann

1.  Richard Hannay

2.  Heine Schwaffer

3.  Miss Cates

4.  Gladys Alward

You guys got quite a few so let me try and help out on some of the others

#2--Harold Russell- The only man to win TWO Oscars for the same role   BEST YEARS OF OUR LIFE

#4--Bertrum Cates---Teacher in a 'trial' movie

#7---Joe Gillis--Writer who was greatly overshadowed by the real star of the movie

#9-- Henry Drummond--Jim, you should get this in a heartbeat-- (Try Clarence Darrow) and Mathew Brady

Here's probably the toughest I've ever put up (even ozzie should have trouble):

"It's what they call in South Africa a One Horse Dorp."

No.  Think Heston & Niven.

"You know I admire Sir Arthur.  He always gives me the feeling that God is an Englishman."

Jim

I*'m sur[prised you didn't get the others. Right up your alley--Mr. Potter--------Osgood----

I guess I'm losing it Lenny.  Mr. Potter = A WONDERFUL LIFE.
