This is what I remember:<br />- during WWII; <br />- a man helps a lady get out of occupied Europe? or Germany; <br />- he puts her in a very large suitcase; <br />- she was going to wear a bathing suit but at the last minute, she changed to a light housecoat; <br />- they are at a train station with armed guards (the Gestapo?) and it is very, very cold; <br />- the train is late and she is in the suitcase for a long time; <br />- when asked, he said the suitcase(s)(he may have had two) contained very heavy books; <br />- they didn't get caught; they did make it onto the train.<br />I've just spent many hours going through names of old movies and can't find it.

Yes, you're right on both counts, and I have to confess I forgot about <i>The Devil At 4:00</i>, so there are obviously more than four....at least five!Paul 2https://www.blogger.com/profile/11500682719536011343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-19242527510102726102011-06-07T13:59:44.507-04:002011-06-07T13:59:44.507-04:00DKoren, you're absolutely right about those tw...DKoren, you're absolutely right about those two! Good job...and keep thinking!<br /><br />Becks, as to Lyle Bettger, you'd know him if you saw him! He was a well-known villain in lots of Westerns, as well other types of movies. <br /><br />As for the bizarre death threat, have you ever seen <i>The Greatest Show on Earth</i>? He threatened Gloria Grahame with an elephant's foot in the face!!<br /><br />Now that's something you don't see every day, LOL!<br /><br />And yes, you're right about the Flynn-Parker picture being <i>Escape Me Never</i>, but it's #5 not 6...I think you were too focused on Mr. Flynn in electric blue!<br /><br />JoAnn told me you would LOVE that picture!<br /><br />And sorry, <i>Meteor</i> is not it....Wood and Malden did both appear in that film, but he wasn't her father. He was a NASA engineer and she was a Russian.<br /><br />But don't give up!Paul 2https://www.blogger.com/profile/11500682719536011343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-11563302498236199512011-06-07T11:53:22.337-04:002011-06-07T11:53:22.337-04:00Duh, #6 is Escape Me Never.

I think her lover was Sean Connery, but she ended up going with Brian Keith at the end. It's been a long time, so I may have them mixed up.ClassicBeckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03591715859057540467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-87024542164346972552011-06-07T11:37:59.136-04:002011-06-07T11:37:59.136-04:00Awww, Rick beat me -- but I'm a good loser, Ri...Awww, Rick beat me -- but I'm a good loser, Rick. Congrats! I know that line so well!<br /><br />Who the h---heck is Lyle Bettger? Was anybody really suppposed to know that? Now I have to look him up, because you didn't say which film or what the bizarre death threat was! That's the main thing I wanted to find out!<br />Poor Charlton-- he really "died a thousand deaths"!!<br /><br />3. I know Sinatra died in From Here to Eternity and The Devil at 4:00 (one of my faves). I'll have to think more for the other two.ClassicBeckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03591715859057540467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-437723427183127582011-06-07T11:37:34.807-04:002011-06-07T11:37:34.807-04:00One of #3 is VON RYAN'S EXPRESS and I believe ...One of #3 is VON RYAN'S EXPRESS and I believe a second one is FROM HERE TO ETERNITY.<br /><br />And I'm really curious about the answer to #6!
