And gee, if you IMDB Bwana Devil, you get "a lion in your lap" as the tagline.
That gives us one more:
B-30. Bwana Devil + A-62. Ursula Andress + A-13. Ed Begley, Jr. = She Devil
I always thought
A Lion in Your Lap, A Lover in Your Arms was one of the best known movie taglines. It referred to the chief appeal of that movie: 3-D.
The funny thing was, I never even thought of the movie until KT mentioned She Devil.
Then I knew instantly what it was and remembered the 3-D tagline. The IMDB look-up was confirmation.

I have been going through all sorts of possible Gene Autry titles in my head.
The only one I keep coming back to is Melody Ranch. I don't think that helps us any.
I believe there is also a Sioux City Sue. At least I remember Gene Autry singing Sioux City Sue at lot.
He also sang Maria Elena in a movie, which tickled me to no end.
So, I am no help here.

Sometimes you can stare at these things and nothing happens.
And then you have the D'oh moment.
B-6. The Extra Girl + A-26. Sam Shepard + A-42. William Holden = The Country Girl

Gene Autry rode Champion, and the movie referred to here is Rancho Grande. That along with Claude Rains (Notorious) and Marlene Dietrich gives us Rancho Notorious

Can the Gene Autry movie be Rancho Something?
Because that would give us:
B-24. Rancho Something + A-57. Claude Rains + A 29. Marlene Dietrich = Rancho Notorious

This is the one movie I don't expect anyone to find without IMDB. But I couldn't resist the combination.

I would've used Elizabeth Ashley in Rancho Deluxe. Kind of a B movie, but entertaining. And an irresistible (if you like twangy) theme song.
Of course, I would have never come up with the idea for the game in the first place, so moot point.

Can this
B-13. “Democracy shtunken!”
be from The Great Dictator?
If someone made a movie called Escape (and, if they did, my bets are Nazimova or VonStroheim), we could match it with Steve McQueen for The Great Escape.

It's a 1940 film called Escape in which Robert Taylor plays an American who goes to Nazi Germany to help get his mother (Nazimova) out of a concentration camp. And yes I had to look it up.

Never heard of the movie.
My aunt was a huge Robert Taylor fan but I think we always saw the usual movies - Quo Vadis, Camille, Broadway Melody of 1938.
I don't think I've ever seen the Robert Taylor version of Magnificent Obsession, either.
Consolidation coming shortly.

Everything on here is correct. Good job!
The clue in B-38 should read 'List A' rather than 'List B'

We watch Ed Begley's Living with Ed.
We've picked up some good recycling/greener living tips.

I am thinking that the missing movie might have Baby in it because Diane Keaton was in Baby Boom and Richard Burton was in Boom.
I'll think about this Saturday afternoon, when I can return to the puzzle.
AND I don't see anything here that could make Executive Suite into California Suite. Frank missed the chance to get a Dame Maggie movie into a puzzle???

I looked this one up to verify. Ed Harris appeared in a film called China Moon, so I checked to see if there was a movie called "China" and lo and behold, Alan Ladd starred in it.
So,
Ed Harris + Alan Ladd + Paper Moon = China Moon

OH, SHOOT! BIG HONKING ERROR ON MY PART!
B-23. Executive Suite ....
is left over from an earlier version of the puzzle! (One that included the movie
California, with Ray Milland and Barbara Stanwyick.) I guess I made the mistake of replacing only two of the three parts of the triple.
It SHOULD have been...
B-23. Boys Town
MEA CULPA, MEA CULPA, MEA CULPA

I'll think about this Saturday afternoon, when I can return to the puzzle.
AND I don't see anything here that could make Executive Suite into California Suite. Frank missed the chance to get a Dame Maggie movie into a puzzle???

So that takes care of Richard Burton's Boom, since that combined with Boys Town and Spencer Tracy gives us Boom Town.
The actress who decided to use her middle name professionally must be Evan Rachel Wood, because that gives us the movie "Thirteen" to go with Radio Days to make Thirteen Days, a Kevin Costner movie.

One more...which means we need one more.
I kept thinking this Von Stroheim movie existed but I was getting it confused in my mind with Foolish Wives.
39) B-31. BLIND DATE + A-43. Peter Falk + A-33. Erich Von Stroheim = Blind Husbands
Consolidation coming shortly.
