The first major motion picture to received an "X" rating was Midnight Cowboy. What was the first major U.S. motion picture to have frontal nudity?

The answer to yesterday's question is The Pawnbroker (1964) starring Rod Steiger.


In 1928 this studio announced they would produce only "talkies". What studio was that?

The correct answer is: Paramount Studioes.

Chaplin, Fairbanks, Pickford and Griffith. Of the four, only Chaplin and Pickford remained as major players.

That would be Bogart in THE AFRICAN QUEEN. I think the character's name was Henry Allnut.

Congrats to panzer the great and terrible for his ALMOST correct answer. Bogart's character name in THE AFRICAN QUEEN was Charlie Alnutt.

I'm guessing PHOTOPLAY. I haven't seen 'em that old but I have seen 'em ten years later.
