P: Timex Watch Commercials
E: Gloria Swanson as Norma Desmond in Sunset Blvd.
I'm working on the connection.
Correct on both counts! Now about that Connection...
In the same vein, Sunset Boulevard is probably my favourite movie that I've never actually seen. I love the quotes, and loved the Carol Burnette parody. I really want to see it someday.
Perhaps one day I shall come up with a Connection based on alliterative gerunds, but today is not the day. Here's a hint: it's about time.

Well, it hardly worked, did it?
1950 it is. Your research has shown you to be a worthy opponent.
