Two Actors:
You name the classic film
Hints: The top actor is shown much later in the life than when he appeared in this film, and one of his co-stars (not shown) was much taller.

1. The other co-star was between 18 and 24 feet tall!
|
I recognized Bruce Cabot, and worked backwards from there.
The movie was King Kong (1933), and the second actor was Robert Armstrong. |

Last edited Wed Jul 25, 2012, 07:04 AM USA/ET - Edit history (1) Second clue: As with the 1940 Pride and Prejudice, we're talking Academy Award winners, though it wasn't in this particular film that each gentleman won an acting Oscar.

6. Other Oscar winners also.

Two Oscar winners:
Christian Bale was the boy. Paul Scofield was the King of France. The film: Kenneth Branagh's Henry V. Also in the cast Oscar winners Emma Thompson and Judi Dench. |

Last edited Wed Jul 25, 2012, 10:47 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1) You know your movies and your actors.
The 1989 Henry V was, as you say, fairly populated with past and future Oscar nominees (including Ian Holm and Branagh himself) and winners, though the film itself only took the statuette for Phyllis Dalton's costume designs. Trivia note: Judi Dench's real-life husband, Michael Williams, did some fine work as the soldier who has a crucial pre-battle encounter with the king, but the actor didn't have any scenes with his wife.

9. Welcome to DU.

You sure picked two good ones. However I don't think they have (as yet) appeared together in the same film.
