    An RKO Radio release.
  • The answer to image # 5 is Rosalind Russell from the film Sister Kenny released in 1946 who played real life Australian nurse Elizabeth Kenny.  She was as early as 1910 reported to have treated polio cases in the Australian bush back ''to normalcy''. She treated Rosalind Russell's nephew for poliomyelitis and Rosalind campaigned long to land the role in the film.

  • Freud: The Secret Passion (1963)


  • Correct. Your poster picture source states the year as being 1963 but was actually released in the USA in very late 1962. Montgomery Clift died in 1966 at the age of 66. The film contained the final screen appearance of Larry Parks.
