#148 just hit me in the face today. Kim Novak in Pal Joey. Like the film a lot, but 'kangaroo' is a bit misleading.
How so ? I had thought as joey was a name for a baby kangaroo it was a good clue and it worked anyway. Pal Joey was from 1957 and Rita Hayworth received top billing over Frank Sinatra.
# 146. Final clue is that the actress won an Academy award the same year she appeared in the above film.
The answer for 146 is Gina Davis from the film ''Earth Girls Are Easy'' ( 1988 ). Gina won a best supporting actress ''Oscar'' for her performance in ''The Accident Tourist'' in the same year.
# 150 answer is Brigitte Bardot in Doctor At Sea ( 1955 ). Ves guessed is was Brigitte but not the film. The clues ''steer'' and ''left the house behind and two of seven'' didn't have the desired effect. ''Doctor In The House'' then ''Doctor At Sea'' followed which was the 2nd ''Doctor'' entry in a series of seven films.
#152: Jennifer Lopez in Shall we Dance (2004) An OK, but not great musical. I never believed in the main characters and the plot seemed a bit forced.
Jay
Please see the 1996 Japanese movie it was based on. It is a far superior movie, and I found it delightful.
It will be diminished because you will know some of the plot twists in advance, but I think you will still like it a lot.
Also, amazingly, there is another excellent ballroom dancing movie, Strictly Ballroom, from Australia, which I highly recommend (and fortunately there is not yet a mediocre U.S. remake).

151. The chick at the start of Goldfinger that gets painted gold...best you will get from me.
Goldfinit wasger from 1964 is of course correct and seeing you know the film and the role the actress played Ves, for the record Shirley Eaton played the roll.
Yes Sonia Kruger from Strictly Ballroom ( 1992 ) is correct. An acknowledgement that Jay knew the answer as well. I love the movie and seeing the film was being discussed elsewhere on the forum I thought I would throw it in.
Correct and Alan Ladd was a last minute replacement for his role in the film. I have read the following story about behind the scenes on Boy On a Dolphin. ''The film crew dug a trench for Loren to walk in so Ladd would appear taller.

I watched an episode of Newhart (the first one) this weekend. Mr Carlson got a date with Bob's secretary (Marcia Wallace). He was wearing 4" lifts to avoid being embarrassed. They ended up going to a Japanese restaurant where the hostess asked him to remove his shoes.
I remember similar stories about Tom Cruise who was generally shorter than his co-stars.
