Re: Movies of the Decades
I forgive you, Dave. Now try these:
1990’s
1. SL (1993 – Bio/Drama/History – LN)
2. TEP (1996 – Drama/Romance/War - RF)
3. TAL (1991 – Adventure/Crime/Drama – SS)
4. EWS (1999 – Drama/Mystery/Thriller – TC)
5. SAS (1995 – Drama/Romance – ET)
The last two actors are definitely NOT ‘Top Cat’ and ‘ET’
