I somehow KNEW for sure 281 was Shelley Winters, but I did not have time to check this morning, but now I went to my archive and found it is SOUTH SEA SINNER.
Correct, and again well done and without needing the aid of a clue. South Sea Sinner from 1949 but released in1950. The famous pianist Liberace appeared in the film, as seen below.
Sorry I had earlier given an incorrect clue for Boy On A Dolphin in error. The actress is indeed though the lovely Sophia Loren, but seen appearing below with John Wayne in the film Legend of The Lost from 1957.
I must say Sophia does look similarly attired in both films that were released in the sale year.
As 284 has certainly proved much too difficult to answer, I will now provide the correct answer.
The actress in question is the British born Sylvia Syms as she is seen as she appeared in the British film Expresso Bongo from 1959. Not the type of roll she would be most remembered playing.
Sylvia Syms was appointed an OBE by the Queen in 2007.
As seen below with Dame Helen Mirren, who played Queen Elizabeth 11 in the motion picture The Queen from 2006 Sylvia played the Queen Mother.
285 286 Two more images to present to you. I have some good clues in hand for both these ladies if you have any problems in recognising their identities.
Seeing no one has picked up on my athlete and Vera miles clues, I will now announce the answer for 286.
The actress is Vera Ralston the Czech born as Vera Helena Hruba, the former figure skater who turned actress in the U.S.A. She was the wife of Herbert J. Yates the founder and President of Republic Pictures from 1952 until his death in 1966.
The depicted image scene was taken to promote the Republic Pictures production Timberjack from 1955.
My earlier Vera Miles clue referred to the fact that the U.S. actress born Vera June Ralston had to change her screen name to Vera Miles, due to the fact that the name Vera Ralston was already taken. A glamorous image of Vera Miles appears below.
Comments
I am thinking one image is perhaps obvious, but the other one could present a problem in being able to be identified.
284 clue is a very popular singer at the time appears in this film.
I would like to state though that these are two different films this time around to be identified..
