[VAUConnFan]

14. Robert Redford was in the movie version. Might have been in the stage version.
16. They both played in King Kong movies
17. TN
18. Vertigo

21. Temple
22. Child sexual abuse
23. Paul ryan is about to step in to the position of Speaker of the House

18. Family Plot

 

[meyers7]

15. TVA Nuclear plant. I think in TN (although TVA covers other states).
24. Grenada. I think there was a coup down there and the US was trying to re-establish the government??? Something like that. Probably something that was none of our business, but it was an easy win for us.
25. They have a movie coming out soon.

18..Don't get complacent here, cause neither Family Plot nor Vertigo suffices.

 

[k9fanatic]

22. The owner was accused of sexually abusing children. If I remember right, they never found any evidence of it.
23. Paul Ryan -- who just accepted the position of Speaker of the House.
24. Greneda -- something about the threat of communism?

 

[Rocket009]

14..I would guess (probably wrongly) Robert Redford, but only because I saw the movie.

19..1707 about a hundred years after James I/VI unified the thrones

22..Multiple teachers were accused of child abuse and jailed. Much of the evidence was "coached" from the children by a counselor of dubious character.

23..Paul Ryan, potential new speaker of the house

24..Grenada, to stop the spread of communism in the Caribbean.

25..The Great Pumpkin appearing over the most sincere pumpkin patch.

 

[hoopingcrane]

14..Robert Redford

16..Both played the wife in Cape Fear movies

17..Missouri

19. 1707 Act of Union

20..Marty Engels died- married to Jones, played roles.

21..Memphis

22..sexual abuse allegations

23..Paul Ryan being wooed to take Speaker's position

24..Grenada, because he could but supposedly to save students at med school there

25..Charlie Brown never wins a baseball game and never gets to kick the football, the Great Pumpkin does not appear no matter how long Linus waits.

Here's wishing our Georgetown transfer heals quickly and successfully.

18..My mistake. Rbny is correct about Family Plot(1976). Now the others...

14..Hoop seems sure. Others are making a leap of logic. That's OK, for your testmeister is tickled by leaps in logic.

15..See Meyers and yes, it is Tn.

16..I asked King Kong to show me if Polly was in his hand, but he refused. She was safe enough to be in Cape Fear, like hoop said.

17..Hoop again with the state that IS willing to Show Me.

19..Rocket and hoop are right on the nose. Such a curious expression, no?

20..The "I'm Dickens, He's Fenster" refers to Marty's partnership with John Astin for 1 TV season. Otherwise, VAUC and hoop
give us the rest.

21..Temple IS undefeated, but not as highly ranked as what hoop says.

22..See Rocket's explanation.

23..The VAUC Quartet on top of Paul Ryan.

24..Reagan may not have told us the real skinny on the campaign in Grenada, and we have the K9 Quartet to thank
for myriad explanations.

25..Hoop is most complete, while Meyers is standing on line for theater tickets.

I direct your efforts to finish A.
