Here’s today’s mystery photo! Who is the mystery woman and what is the mystery film?

Here are some more mystery people from our mystery film. Please congratulate Dewey Webb for identifying our mystery gal and the mystery movie!

Here’s another mystery woman from our mystery film…. Please congratulate Claire Lockhart and Benito for identifying our first mystery woman — and the film! Also congratulate Megan and Roget-L.A. for identifying our mystery chap, and Dewey Webb for identifying our mystery chanteuse.

And here’s another mystery chap (OK, not very mysterious) from our mystery film… Our mystery movie and people have been identified by Mike Hawks and Jeff M.

Here’s your answer!

Can answer the who, but not the what. She is Mercury Player, Agnes Moorehead. The picture?
Zoe Caldwell in Purple Rose of Cairo
Margaret Leighton
…Jack Buchanan?
John Hurt in drag? Don’t know film, but that’s definitely the bottom half of John Wood’s face in the background.
Hermoine Gingold.
Is it that guy from Lost In Space? Jonathan Harris, I think?
Judith Anderson as the Wicked Stepmother in Cinderfella?
Not a “mystery woman” by any stretch. But, as to who. Sorry I don’t follow t ransvestites.
Martita Hunt in ANASTASIA?
Edgar Buchanan?
Wow, lots of unnecessary nastiness in this thread.
Yes it’s quite puzzling what people are seeing in this photo. I’m sure the mystery actress would be surprised to say the least.
I have to admit I saw Jonathan Harris, myself. Sorry if I have offended.

Is the guy in the middle of the second photo John Wood?
Zoe Caldwell as the Countess in The Purple Rose of Cairo, but Jonathan Harris is a good guess.
Karen Akers
Here we go. #1 Zoe Caldwell. #2 Edward Herrmann, John Wood and Deborah Rush. #3 Karen Akers. All appearing in THE PURPLE ROSE OF CAIRO.
The movie is “Purple Rose of Cairo” and I believe the woman is Zoe Caldwell. Not a flattering still, you have to admit. (I only got this because I recognized Karen Akers in the third pic and worked backwards from there.)
At last….Zoe Caldwell, Karen Akers and Van Johnson in “Purple Rose of Cairo”!
Van Johnson it is.
First photo is Zoe Caldwell as the Countess in THE PURPLE ROSE OF CAIRO. Second photo is John Wood, today is Van Johnson.
