Star Classics did a pretty good job with this one. Considered by many to be a bad movie, there is no denying that Loni Anderson was the perfect choice to play Jayne Mansfield.

In the mid Seventies Hollywood turned nostalgic and churned out a bunch of biopics and stories about the Golden Age. All were major flops and many were considered some of the Worst Movies ever made. Can you name these:

A) Based on a classic short novel, a scathing account of Hollywood. The main male character shares the name of the main character on a long running prime time animated series. Name the movie and the character as well as the animated show?

B) This X rated film about early porno movies would see its star win a Best Actor Oscar a year after it was released. Name the movie and its star?

C) One of 2 biopics put out by the same major distributor within a month. This was the more successful of the 2 flops. It has a connection to Barbra Streisand. Name the film and the stars?

D) A film that had cameos by more stars than there were in Hollywood. It starred an actress who received back to back Oscar nominations in the 70s. Name the movie and the star?

TV followed in the 80s with MARILYN: THE UNTOLD STORY; MAE WEST ; MOVIOLA and others. All more successful critically than there theatrical counterparts.
