MCM My Classic Movies *I IS FOR IDA LUPINO CONTEST*

MCM My Classic Movies *I IS FOR IDA LUPINO CONTEST*
Moderated by mes114.
This group is inspired by one of my favorite stations TCM (Turner Classic Movies).
 
If you like even just one classic movie, actor, actress, director, whatever, join! If that person or movie isn't getting its fair due, let me know and I'll add him/her/it! Also, please know that even if a set just reminds you of a movie or person but contains nothing to do with them, I'll accept it anyway! I know lots of times random things remind me of other things and there's not really a coherent thread, so I won't judge you! :)
 
We will be having fairly frequent contests, so keep your eyes peeled!
 
If you want something broader, here's also the movie challenge, I'm putting an * next to ones I've done. :) NOTE: I think I have a problem. I can't stop making changes to the challenges! There are now not only 75 movies, but a female icon, male icon, and classic couple lists! Lots of challenges to fulfill, so if you only feel up to doing one challenge at a time that's fine. Remember, as soon as you finish ANY of the challenges, be sure to PM me and let me know so I can give you a shout out and link to your collection! Here goes:

Remember, even if you just want to make a set of one of the actors in one of the movies listed, I consider that completing that number! Whatever each movie or person in that movie means to you, is fine by me! Even if you just go by the title, I don't mind. Also, I completely accept using the same set for numerous challenges. For example, if you have a set about Dark Passage and use it in your collection for the film, Humphrey Bogart, and Lauren Bacall, that's totally fine by me!
 
Again, let me know if you have ANY requests and/or questions! Have fun. :)
