    Save it Enfidl Just having fun. I'll throw one out there to get back in your good graces. This movie was shot at a single location. Part of the plot involved a dead man.

    Decided to change it and make it something that should go fast.

    This movie was inspired by a series of murders and the book written about them

    OK, here we go...

    This movie premiered at the Astor Theater in New York's Times Square. The lead actress was almost not cast because she was 10 years older than the age of the character she was playing.

    Nice try with so little information, better than I was expecting for a 1st answer.

    Thats not it though.

    next clue

    The story takes place in 1917, during World War I

    I am guessing we are talking about the Astor Theater that was reduced to rubble the year after I was born? Sergeant York?

    Correct Theater, wrong movie. Looks like a good old movie though I am going to have to check that one out.

    Next Clue

    The director got the lead actor drunk before shooting one of the key sceens for this film that "almost" stared Marlon Brando

    Sergeant York was an excelent movie, Dad always made me watch classics and i guess helped me develop a taste for them. I think I found the answer, but I had to google it. I am just curious to see what it is.

    Yeah it looks good, I watched a 5 minute clip of it on YouTube and just added it to my NetFlix que.

    My dad had me watching a lot of old war movies from the 60's & 70's when I was a kid also. The Great Escape, The Dirty Dozen, Von Ryan's Express, Papillon and so many others.

    These are some of my favorite movies now that I find myself watching over and over. This also has me lately getting into even older movies from the 40's so it looks like Sergeant York will be right up my alley.

    New Clue coming soon, I am trying to get easier with the clues now, but it sounds like you're Google search may have found it! I have been trying to be careful with the answers to make them hard to Google!

    I don't have a clue about the movie (lol), but just wanted to chime in about Sgt. York - absolutely great movie - based on a true story too. Saw it as a kid and will always watch it when it comes on. That and "Shane" are probably my two favorite classic flicks. They don't make em like that anymore.

    This was the first of only three Major Motion Pictures the lead actor stared in before his tragic death turned him into an Icon.

    It was the only Picture of the three he starred in released before his death.
