If that's a very young Ron Howard and a very old Harrison Ford, the movie was American Graffiti!

Well done.

do yourself a favor and pass on the Elderberry wine. It tastes just deadly.

Kudos, CBHagman

A perennial favorite this story has many versions as films and even more as TV mini-series. I believe this one to be a 1940s movie.

A 1940 adaptation of one of a work of literature has never been out of print and continues to attract generation after generation of readers.

1. It's a romantic comedy.

2. The cast includes no fewer than three Academy Award winners, though none picked up the statuette for this particular movie.

Supporting actors:

Top - Melville Cooper

Bottom - Edna May Oliver

The movie: Pride and Prejudice (1940)

It starred Oscar winners Greer Garson, Laurence Olivier and
Edmund Gwenn.

The cast also included the recently deceased Ann Rutherford (pictured).



A number of the actors were quite long-lived (Karen Morley, who played Charlotte Lucas, for instance), but at I think at present only Marsha Hunt (Mary Bennet) survives.

Really awesome and great actor and one word i would like to say that old is gold.

...may I see your pictures, please?

You name the classic film:

Both actors were instantly recognizable, and I had a couple of guesses as to the film, but both were wrong. Usually I don't look up cast lists on IMDB, but I did this time. I stopped short of checking both actors' credits, though.

The city, in which this film is set, plays a major role in plot development.

The actors: Robert Duvall and Robert Vaughn

The Movie: Bullitt (1968)

The city: San Francisco

The original story was based in Boston but Steve McQueen had that changed to San Francisco for the great car chase scenes.

one of the all-time best chase scenes ever.

A great cast in a great film adaptation of a great novel.

Actor at top is Christopher Lloyd. I don't recall the name of the second man.

The bottom pic is Scatman Crothers. You will remember him from Kubrick's The Shining.

Cuckoo's Nest (1975) was Christopher Lloyd's film debut.

It won Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress, Best Actor and Best Screenplay.

Devito did a revival off-Broadway in his part before the film.

I didn't know that Kirk Douglas played McMurphy in the original Broadway production. Gene Wilder was his Billy.

clue: There is a couple in the film's title.

Graybeard got it right away

...and was the movie Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid?

Butch Cassidy: Alright. I'll jump first.
Sundance Kid: No.
Butch Cassidy: Then you jump first.
Sundance Kid: No, I said.
Butch Cassidy: What's the matter with you?
Sundance Kid: I can't swim.
Butch Cassidy: Are you crazy? The fall will probably kill you.
