QOD Tuesday 12-18 "HELLO, DOLLY!"

[fantine33]

12/18 HELLO, DOLLY!

I debated on whether or not there's a comma in there and decided yes. Pretty self explanatory, so let's not chance fudging up something with a groovy opening, okay?


1. Dolly the Sheep was cloned at Roslin Institute in what city?

2. Dolly Parton refused to let this singer record I Will Always Love You when she was informed that they required a co-writing credit and part of the royalties. (It went on to become the biggest selling song ever by a female vocalist.)

3. True or false? The Dolly Madison Bakery was named for Dolley Madison.

4. The Dolly Sisters were a popular dance act in the Teens and Twenties. I don’t think they there are much remembered now, but back in the day (1945) they rated a “biographical” movie starring June Haver and what other actress in the lead roles?

5. What is Barbie’s full name (FM&L)?


QOD: Hello, Dolly! was directed by this actor/singer/dancer who got savaged by the critics (the movie actually lost money despite being a huge box office success), but he was nominated for several awards, including a Golden Globe.

5 Point Bonus: The next year he went in a completely different direction with this movie starring Henry Fonda and Jimmy Stewart as old saddle pals.

5 Point Bonus Bonus: This actress was never considered for the lead role because producers felt she wasn’t attractive enough, despite being the originator of the role and winning a Tony for her performance.
