Correct. Being from a James Bond franchise entry I just knew someone would be able to identity this actress who appeared in the 
1981 Bond released film.

I googled a lot on the last one and found it but I've never heard of the actress or film.  So, I will give the rest a chance at that one.

For whatever reason you have missed the answers that have been received previously for these two images. The following four images will give you most likely the first opportunity to answer some of these.


 KKK  LLL

 MMM  NNN

Four more images of women with weapons, that hopefully will be able to be identied.  I am thinkig three of these ladies shouldn't present any problems at all, but the remaining little known actress may be uncecognisable, but the film she appears in is well known to a lot of film noir fans.   

After these four are hopefully  answered I will then return to displaying the more traditional female images.

Correct. Streets Of Laredo is a remake of the 1936 film The Texas Rangers.

   

Bruce said:

Correct, but for the record it is for LLL. The repeat of the images above altered the sequence of the letters making them out of order.

Johhny Guitar ( 1954 ) is a very well regarded film with me as well and my favourite film directed by Nicholas Ray of those that I have seen.

The Mercedes character Emma Small  is seen below organising the attempting hanging of Joan Crawford's character Vienna.

Correct. Joanne Dru is seen below in a dramatic scene that appeared at the end of Howard Hawk's magnificent Red River from 1948. Walter Brennan can be seen in the background.

  

theartofmovieposters said:

MMM Gaby Rogers in Kiss Me Deadly.

Yes it is the little known actress Gaby Rodgers appearing in 1955's Kiss Me Deadly. Top marks for answering this one. I had been thinking the image may have presented a problem and was just about to post some clues.




Coming up next some more traditional and less confronting pictured actresses to be identiried.

I googled film noir women lying in bed with gun and against all hope she popped up!  So I guess she or that scene is a bit better known than we thought.   Need to see the film.

This film is worth seeking out and it certainly has an explosive ending.

  OOO   PPP

 QQQ  RRR

Four more actresses to identify. Should range from easy to perhaps not so easy. Three different nationalities are involved here.

Bruce

Is PPP Jinx Falkenburg in Tahiti Nights?

Bruce

OOO looks like Olivia De Havilland, but I haven't a clue as to the movie.

HONDO

Bruce said:

It certainly is Jinx Falkenburg publicising Tahiti Nights in 1944. 

Bruce said:

Correct with Olivia de Havilland. The image was a publicity photograph for her first released feature film Alibi Ike in 1935.



Olivia seen here with Joe E. Brown. She died last year at the ripe old age of 104

HONDO

QQQ clue is that this actress will most likely be best remembered for her appearance in a children's film.

RRR clue is that she was mainly credited  using only a single name

theartofmovieposters said:

QQQ Sally Ann Howes (I cheated)
RRR Alida Valli  (took me FOREVER...I knew I knew that face!  Third Man!)

Both correct. Good work Ves. 

Stop Press Girl which starred Sally Ann Howes was a 1949 release. She most likely will be best remembered for her appearance in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang ( 1968 ). Sally Ann is alive and 91 years of age at present.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             

 

Sally Ann Howes seen above with Dick Van Dyke in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang ( 1968 ), and a nice studio publicity image taken of her.

 

Alida Valli aka Valli was once called the most beautiful woman in the world after Greta Garbo by Italian dictator Benito Mussolini. Apart from The Third Man ( 1949 ) will also be remembered for her appearance in  Alfred Hitchcock's The Paradine Case ( 1947 ).

Another batch of actresses that hopefully you will be able to answer. Only one well known actress features in this selection. Two of the other actresses appear above in scenes from well known films. The remaining three will most likely be known from their work in numerous mainly 1950's films.

TTT Mari Blanchard from The Crooked Web, recognise that image from the daybill

HONDO

theartofmovieposters said:

TTT Mari Blanchard from The Crooked Web, recognise that image from the daybill 

Correct. The Crooked Web from 1955, Seen also in the following  image from the film with Mari Blanchard are Frank Lovejoy and Richard Denning.
She is most likely best remembered for playing the Marlene Dietrich role from Destry Rides Again ( 1939 ) in the 1954 Audie Murphy remake titled Destry.

 Unfortunately she passed away at the age of only 47 from cancer after battling it for over seven years, As a child she had suffered from severe poliomyelitis, and on top of this sadly the breaks didn't come her way in her time spent in hollywood.
