Yes, Catherwood is correct, the "great" "classic" musical version of Lost Horizon featuring a singing Liv Ullman and Peter Finch (in this clip) and the touching (dancing and singing) love story of George Kennedy and Sally Kellerman (post her breakout spin as Hot Lips Houlihan in the original M*A*S*H), John Geilgud with makeup to make him look vaguely (if not convincingly) asian, and oh so many wonderful period (1970's) touches. Nehru jackets were big then, I recall. Words and Music by the great if cliched Burt Bachrach and Hal David. Those were the days...
Catherwood, yer up!

Lost Horizon? The musical version comes to mind.

OK, shocked at how few stills there are from this classic on the web, and I apologize for not so great resolution...

The Liquidator? Except Jill St. John was never painted gold.
Or... the real golden girl and ole Wilfred were in "Carry On Nurse" 1959. Which is not a mystery movie.
Then there's Conspirator, with Honor Blackman who was in Goldfinger but also not painted gold.
Or... (gave up on B&W films too early) - Ten Little Indians, which does include the golden girl and Wilfred and Stanley Holloway (I think that's him in the pic above) AND it's a mystery. Pretty please?

It's neither of those, though the genre is mystery.
One little clue: One of the cast members (not pictured) was painted gold in an earlier film.

I did say that. Wasn't it clear? I did not say; "To simplify things".

"This is a demonstration of a talking picture"
I can't help jumping in here, for one of my all time favorites... "Singin' in the Rain".
Nice game, urthstripe.

This is a 'copy' of a .jpg-file, showing a tv, showing a movie, showing a film, showing a man.
Wait, you said that to be clear?!

So you asked for it.
To be clear. (I did not take this pic but) its a foto taken from a tv thats showing the movie. Though in the movie is a movie showing this man.
therefore:
This is a 'copy' of a .jpg-file, showing a tv, showing a movie, showing a film, showing a man.
I ask for the name of the movie as the film shown does not really have a name as far as I know.

Gah! Puppy, Why do you do this to us? It's right there, but stuck in a fog. The only thing that keeps popping into my head is Rocky Horror Picture Show, but he's definitely not Mr. "No neck".

Is that a picture of a TV playing the movie or is the TV in the movie?
