March 29 edit
Edward Norton edit
I remember seeing a trailer at the movie theaters sometime in the last few years that had Edward Norton starring as some sort of criminal mastermind, but I can't remember the name. However, looking at his filmography, I don't see it there. I am pretty sure it was Norton, since I remember noting it to myself since my sisters get very excited for him and his voice. The only thing I can come up with is that whatever movie it was got canceled at some point. Can anybody help me out here? Thanks. —Akrabbimtalk 03:28, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
- It wasn't The Italian Job (2003 film)? The trailer is here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.171.56.13 (talk) 10:39, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

- I've seen The Italian Job, and the trailer for The Score doesn't seem to line up (it looks good though). Norton's mastermind that I have stuck in my weird memory here is more like the one in Law Abiding Citizen--oh wait, I just remembered something more as I was typing this. There is some genius that starts setting up elaborate plots, giving an investigator clues to try to figure them out and stop them under a time limit, as some sort of game or test of wits or something. That's all I got. —Akrabbimtalk 11:22, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
- Bone Collector? I don't remember if that had Norton in it, but giving clues to investigators in a sick kind of game was part of the plot. Googlemeister (talk) 16:42, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

- I remember reading that quite a few people thought that Aidan Gillen from 12 Rounds reminded them of Norton. The plot and time frame seems to fit...could that be what you're thinking of? --Onorem♠Dil 16:57, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
Dixie Girl - who recorded the song first edit
I know that both Cher and Barbi Benton recorded it in the 70s. Who else did? Who recorded it first? It seems to have been written by Johnny Durrill according to [1] but their info is not complete (they don't list Benton's version). Entheta (talk) 21:33, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
- Near as I can tell, Cher recorded and released it first. The song was on the Dark Lady (album) from Cher, Released in May 1974. The sources online that I can see show that Barbi Benton released the song on her self-titled album, Barbi Benton, which was in 1975. Avicennasis @ 22:39, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
