A12 Joyce Grenfell in The Million Pound Note...wee bit of searching but found it!
Correct. The Million Pound Note was a 1954 release. I knew you would figure this one out Ves.
Regarding an earlier clue, Joyce Grenfell appeared in a long running series of British films based on the works of cartoonist Ronald Searle set in St. Trinian's school.
Correct. Thanks Ves. The delightful Katie Johnson as she appeared in The Ladykillers from 1955.
Apart from Ves participating in this quiz recently, interest from others in recent times has waned, so I am thinking that in the future of reducing my quiz involvement here on the forum.
In the meantime though it would appear that a few clues wouldn't go astray for the three remaining unanswered images..
A16. A big time switcheroo takes place in this film from the 1980's.
A18. A famous child star in the 1940's,
A19. A little known actress appearing in a scene from a classic film from the 1960's that has a very long title.
A19 is Tracy Reed in Dr Strangelove... (1964) hint helped
Correct as well. Happy to assist with the clues.
Appearing above with George C. Scott in a scene from, and giving it the full title, Dr. Strangelove Or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Bomb.
Not a great title for cinema marques, unless you had space available as the below cinema would have had, in the 1940's, and if it was still operating in 1964, and they wanted to use the full title.
On checking a little later on I found that the cinema certainly appears to be the Oriental Theatre in Milwaukee, Winconsin in the U.S.A., and is still operating today, as the image would indicate below .
A nice image of Tracy Reed and then following then seen appearing with Peter Sellers and George Sanders in A Shot In The Dark ( 1964 ).
I've been to the Oriental many times over the years. First time was in the 60s. These days it shows a lot of limited distribution "art" films. One of the last remaining movie palaces, and the best in the area
Correction . The spelling of Sonia Braga, the answer for A16 was incorrectly credited with her christian name being shown as being Sonja and not as Sonia the correct spelling.

While I hopefully await an answer for A18, two more actresses to have you think about.
I believe one will be easy to identify, but the other one most likely will be difficult to answer. Somewhere in my last sentence lies within a word another word which is an obscure clue.
BTW, a18 is Margaret OBrian in Heller in Pink Tights. I did image search here as I never would have guessed that beauty was the same freckled kid in Meet Me in St Louis
Looks like Ves has a21, so a20 is Anita Corsaut in The Blob.
A20 is correct and good work, as I had thought that this one may have proved to be difficult. . Aneta Corsaut was billed in The Blob as being Aneta Corseaut
Aneta with Steve McQueen, who was credited as being Steven in The Blob ( 1958 ), and Aneta seen above with Andy Griffith in The Andy Griffith Show TV series ( 1960 -1968 ). In this series which she played schoolteacher Helen Crump, she appeared in in 66 episodes between 1963 -1968.
I believe Ves is hoping someone else will answer A21, but if this doesn't happen I am sure she will provide us with the answer later on. A18 A18 is certainly proving difficult in finding an answer for. I had thought that this actress would be easy enough to work out A final clue is that she was very popular in the 1940's when she was under contract at MGM.
