Ok, so now I need a movie. The only movies I know she was in was Hell's Angels, Platinum Blonde, and Public Enemy (yes, I like old movies). So which one? It's a toss up between Hell's Angels and Platinum Blonde, with a chance it could be Public Enemy or something else entirely. I'm going with... uhh... Platinum Blonde.

I need a date too, so I'll go with 1933.

It's not Platinum Blonde but since you did list it I am going to give it to you.

The answer is Hell's Angels. The year is incorrect but close.

Another point bringing your total to 10 (assuming I've added correctly and haven't missed any

)

Congratulations Stitchy. Great quiz, Red.

Stitchawl · 06-07-2012, 07:10 PM

A simple one for an early morn...

Lester William Polfuss of Mahwah, New Jersey USA, also went by the name Rhubarb Red, was perhaps the most important, most famous, most innovative man in his profession. He was known all around the world, but by a different name.

What name do we know him, and what was that ground breaking creation that made him so famous?

Stitchawl

poohbear_nc · 06-07-2012, 07:46 PM

The first professional wrestler?

Daithi · 06-07-2012, 08:38 PM

Not a clue.

Vaudeville stage entertainer(s)?

Shayne Parkinson · 06-07-2012, 10:07 PM

Hmm, I was going say say magician (and perhaps sawing his wife in half

) until I saw that it's a musical question.
