I could be wrong on one or both, but I feel like those are Lana Turner and Rita Hayworth.

Excellent answer for 295 as it is Lana Turner. Is she a favourite of yours, as I can remember you commenting about her in the past?

The below scene is from The Bad And The Beautiful from 1952.

 
The 296 answer isn't Rita Hayworth though.

 297  298 
Two part time only actresses this time around.

Bruce

I know there is a movie called Red Garters, and the star was Rosemary Clooney, who was more singer than actress, so that seems to fit well for 297. But I did not try to find the image.

Correct. It is Rosemary Clooney, George Clooney's Aunt in real life, as she appeared in Red Garters in 1954.

I believe 298 is Teresa Brewer.  Those Redheads From Seattle was her only film role, as she was primarily a Big Band singer

Yes it is Teresa Brewer in her only theatrical film that she appeared in. Those Redheads From Seattle was released in 1953.

The next two lovely ladies to have a think about.

Bruce

Is 299 Gina in Hunchback from 1956?

HONDO

Bruce said:

Yes it is Gina Lollobrigida in the 1956 version of The Hunchback Of Notre Dame,

   
      

Bruce

And I waited to give someone else a chance, but isn't 300 Maureen O'Hara in the 39 Hunchback?

HONDO

It is indeed Maureen O'Hara in the 1939 version of The Hunchback Of Notre Dame. A very much superior version to the 1956 remake.

I like Anthony Quinn, but he was no Charles Laughton, surely one of the finest actors EVER!

Two more images for one to try to find answers for.

302 is Janet Leigh in Jet Pilot (1957), a film I occasionally watch for the cool old airplanes.  I do have some lobbies, but not that one.

Correct.. An interesting fact is that the film although shot in late 1949 and early 1950 was only finally released in 1957.   

HONDO

A clue for 301 is World War 1.

jayn_j

I know, but will let others have a shot.
