Mulholland Drive

 

 

Billy Rose, Maisie Ravier, and Wild Bill Hickok invade the home of defenseless Melanie Wilkes.

You guys are much too clever for me!  I had to peak at the answer.  I got James, Ann and Olivia but I didn't remember Guy Madison in that movie.  Assuming Harry Dean Stanton played Wild Bill at some point? 

 

Harry Dean was just in an episode of HBO's Getting On, which was a great series that only aired 6 episodes.  Not sure if it generated enough buzz to get renewed.  It's set in the women's geriatric wing of a hospital and stars a BRILLIANT Laurie Metcalf, who if she is not nominated for an Emmy, it's only because too few people saw the show.  A regular patient is played by Ann Guilbert, Millie of Dick Van Dyke.  There's a scene between Ann and Harry Dean than is too hot (for them) for this thread!  Other "guest" patients: Golden Globe and Oscar nominee for "Nebraska" June Squibb, whom I'm a new fan of.....and for those of us who remember Topper, a well-preserved and still-beautiful Anne Jeffreys who is 90!

The Wild Bill Hickok in this case was Lady in the Cage's Jeff Corey, who played Wild Bill in Little Big Man.

 

I need to check out Getting On!

Sorry to once again interrupt the flow of the game.....but

Realized after I posted it that it was Jeff Corey and not Harry Dean (but they do seem like two creepy peas in a pod).  Ann Sothern spoke in Portland (I was there!), showing clips of many movies including "Lady in a Cage" (or "Sadie in a Closet") and mentioned Jeff as a superb acting teacher in Hollywood and that they got together to flesh out their characters.
