Q: Think of a well-known actor of the past whose last name is also a brand name. Remove the last letter of the actor's first name and you'll have a product produced by that brand. What is it?We could have had this puzzle about 3 weeks ago.
A: ALEC GUINNESS --> GUINNESS, ALE
For NPR puzzle posts, don't post the answer or any hints that could lead to the answer before the deadline (usually Thursday at 3pm ET). If you know the answer, submit it to NPR, but don't give it away here.
You may provide indirect hints to the answer to show you know it, but make sure they don't assist with solving. You can openly discuss your hints and the answer after the deadline. Thank you.
Got it. Well, it’s not Ward Bond or Glenn Ford.
ReplyDeleteEliminate two consecutive letters in the actor’s surname, and the remaining letters in order spell a word relevant to this blog.
Oops. Make that "three consecutive letters."
DeleteYes!
DeleteRearrange the letters in odd positions in the actor’s name. You get something that can be found in a family tree.
ReplyDeleteMy answer only works if you also use letters 2 and 6 of the name. I guess I'm thinking of a different word.
DeleteCongratulations to those who got it without consulting a list.
ReplyDeleteSmart Alec(k)s!
DeleteI actually understand Blaine's clue, or I *think* I do. --Margaret G.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking of using it, too.
DeleteI may understand it too.
DeleteIt isn't Bogey, is it?
ReplyDeleteA dogie?
DeleteHad Bogie starred in a production of "Bye Bye Birdie" would it have been a subpar performance, or the opposite? I am confused!
DeleteLegoWhoOnceScoredADoubleEagleOnAParThreeHole(NowYouAreConfused!)
For some, this Holiday weekend may be appropriate for this product.
ReplyDeleteTrue for either answer, lol. See below. No more comments from me. Getting too close to TMI-land...
DeleteI have two answers, one a little obscure...
ReplyDeleteYeah, me too -- the obscure one is the one I thought of almost instantly.
DeleteI think I have the obscure (although perfectly reasonable) answer.
DeleteDoes yours have a connection with Findlay? (I've checked and it's quite difficult to get back from Findlay to this connection, but pretty easy to get from the connection to Findlay.)
DeleteYes. That one.
DeleteThat's the one I got.
DeleteI have an alternate obscure answer that connects to a state in the middle of the U.S.
DeleteI think my answer is an alternate too. The brand only existed a short time.
DeleteOkay, I got what I believe's the intended answer, though it may not work with one of the above hints. The answer reminded me of a household cleaning product.
DeleteSalhyr
ReplyDeleteToo bad his name isn't Wrenchy Allen
ReplyDeleteI was hoping to discover that the Marx company made harps.
DeleteWell it's not HARDY OLIVES...
DeleteEasy one again. One of my all time favorite actors.
ReplyDeleteWill and Bob are indeed correct about the product, but I almost missed out because it's not generally called that.
ReplyDeleteNice puzzle! It deserves to be brought back every six years.
ReplyDeleteWow! It is an exact repeat, and I had forgotten entirely.
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteThe actor and the product are personal favorites. My wife and I are actually planning a vacation that will take us where the product is made.
ReplyDeleteWe're headed there in July; my older sister & I are taking a tour.
DeleteWell, this is awkward.
ReplyDelete(you called?)
DeleteYes, Dr. Awkward. It's such a great word and moniker.
DeleteThank you! I was drawn by its palindromic nature.
DeleteThe actor's original surname implies improvisational skill.
ReplyDeleteClever (last letter removed, I assume)!
DeleteIndeed!
DeleteI got it. Here's a spinoff puzzle. Think of a well known actor of the past, first and last names. Remove the last letter of the first name and you'll have something sold by the government in the 1940's. Who's the actor?
ReplyDeleteCap, see my comment above. Sorry about that.
DeleteDr. K,
DeleteNo problem. I was half asleep when I posted the spinoff.
Hope this isn’t TMI, but it isn’t Cary Grantmobile.
ReplyDeleteTurns out there was a car company called Grant in the early 20th century! I had to check here to make sure that wasn't the intended answer.
DeleteMy (adult) child is named after this actor.
ReplyDeleteWow, that is quite a coincidence!
DeleteAlthough, hmmmmmm. He may be misnamed.
Coincidence? No, sir, specifically after this actor.
DeleteGot it. Working on a clue.
ReplyDeleteIn hindsight, I'm surprised it took me so long to get the answer.
DeleteBecause it was only last week that I mentioned the Guinness Book of Records!
DeleteIt was only last week that I mentioned the Guinness Book of Records!
DeleteI don't know much about lingerie. Is there a bra company named Pitt?
ReplyDeleteI think there are two possible answers.
ReplyDeleteI agree, which is why some previous posts should probably be redacted. Alternate answers deserve the same respect as the intended answer if they are legit.
DeleteI wonder if the alternate answer was even thought of by the puzzle contributor.
DeleteI got 4
DeleteNorrin2 beat me to the punchline. Now I have to think of a clue.
ReplyDeleteAs soon as I stepped into my Ford Harriso, I got the answer.
ReplyDeleteFor me it was a Lollobrigida martini.
DeleteMy favorite car is the Grant. It's English and oh so elegant. And it looks great in a tuxedo pullover!
DeleteLess discourse this time around. . .

I came up with two answers. When I put my head to it, though, I narrowed it to the better choice.
ReplyDeleteGood for you!
DeleteALEC GUINNESS
DeleteAlec Baldwin works as well, but not as nicely, since I've never seen someone order a Baldwin Ale, though it exists.
My clue:
I came up with two answers. When I put my head to it, though, I narrowed it to the better choice.
The Head obviously refers to the Head of the Glass of Ale.
I searched the archive of this blog from a few years ago, but I couldn't find the post I was looking for.
ReplyDeleteI found the post easily. Keep checking.
DeleteI searched again and cannot find it. Depends on the search words I guess. It is not recent.
DeleteIt appears that Blaine has temporarily (and correctly) taken that week down.
DeleteDown the memory hole.
DeleteI was thinking that this was familiar...
DeleteTelevision hint: The Simpsons
ReplyDeleteWhile I can't say that I'm particularly familiar with ALEC GUINNESS, thanks to the The Simpsons episode "Lisa's Rival" I'll never forget that his name anagrams to "GENUINE CLASS."
DeleteGot it, but I consulted a list to find it.

ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
Deletepeople have been trying for years even decades to get 2 min on air with Will and she hijacks constantly, it's like a child grandstanding another kid's birthday party
DeleteJust prior to the on-air challenge, Will said, “All right, Tom and Ayesha, this is a good two-person puzzle, so, Ayesha, feel free to jump in.”
DeleteShould she not give the winning guest a moment or two to at least attempt though? He's been playing since post card days and three of them she started talking immediately before Tom could say a word
DeleteI don't disagree, but I suppose it depends in part on how Ayesha interpreted "feel free to jump in."
Deletefair point but this is a regular thing with her that was not the style of all prior hosts and I find it very unfair to the rare chance one of us makes it on air
DeleteYes, Will invited her to answer along as well. And as we know, sometimes, the most difficult answers are toward the end, so I think she let the guest have the harder, ones. It's only a game.
DeleteI miss Liane.
DeleteInteresting that the puzzle question asks only for the product.
ReplyDeleteCan anyone beat 4?
ReplyDeleteYes, sir, solving this made me smile.
ReplyDeleteI consider this actor to be more than just "well known"
ReplyDeleteDeep ;-)
DeleteIf any letters repeat in the surname, delete any duplicate(s), leaving one of each. Rearrange the result to get a word that describes many on this blog, present company excluded.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
ReplyDeleteI figured it would be. removesd😉
DeleteI will be pleasantly surprised if anyone here knows the title of the actor's favorite movie. Please do not reveal it here until after the Thursday deadline though.
ReplyDeleteWas it from 1960?
DeleteDid you enjoy it as much and I? I even have a copy on DVD.
DeleteNever saw it.
DeleteI think I know and I will tell you how I know after deadline. Good question!
DeleteI have watched it several times since I first saw it in the theater when I was 15.
DeleteI've never seen this one but it's on my list for the day off tomorrow, fitting
DeleteWell, now I feel I must report that I am glad I posted the above because, along with, and mostly because of, the comments that followed, I had a desire to drag my copy (forged, of course) out of its slumber and watch it yet again, along with all the interviews provided as extras on the DVD. I have to say it is still just as fresh and moving now as when I first saw it on the big screen. It has now occurred to me that there are not very many movies, or plays, for that matter, one can say that about. And that suddenly caused me to have a greater, and perhaps more realistic, appreciation of how difficult it must be to be an honest professional film critic. I say this because there are so many low quality movies being made, and now more than ever due to the new technology that makes them easier, and sometimes cheaper, to make. But now I realize that the poor critics cannot constantly tell us that the film we have been looking forward to perhaps should not have been made at all. They must at lease force themselves to pander to the lowest common denominator, or not be read or listened to. I have always felt that story is most important, but the acting is what brings it to life, and without both being present there is little reason to watch a film or play—better to read a book. Unfortunately that thought is not shared by many in the entertainment business today, where special effects seem to rule instead.
DeleteSDB: I agree with a lot that your posted above regarding movies.
DeleteChatgpt knew the answer to favorite movie right away!
DeleteWell, maybe. I just asked ChatGPT, "What was [BLANK]'s favorite movie?", "What was [BLANK]'s favorite role?", and "What was [BLANK]'s favorite movie role?", and I got three different answers, none of which was the 1960 film. When I asked specifically about that one, ChatGPT said it "is another film that [BLANK] held in high regard". As always, ChatGPT (like a certain politician we know) likes to talk a lot, but what it says should never be taken at face value.
Deletejan, I got the same false report. I know the answer because I read this author's carbiography, I mean autobiography.
DeleteI will see if Chatgpt was correct Thursday, I guess.
DeleteIf you are looking for something really good to read, I highly recommend, A Woman I Know, by Mary Haverstick. Your library will have it.
Deletethanks again for the trivia here, just finished the movie and it was such a well written story, never would have seen or heard of it otherwise most likely
DeleteI found "A Woman I Know" interesting, but unconvincing.
DeleteChatgpt got the alternate answer to the sunday puzzle right away. amazing!
ReplyDeleteThis puzzle will have a record number of correct answers.
ReplyDeleteI'll bet Rake Broom and Breakroom will still hold the record. Or Hula and Luau.
DeleteAlec Guinness is like the Guinness Book of World Records.
DeleteMy favorite too. There can't be another perfect answer.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to hearing Matt's four answers on Thursday...
ReplyDeleteI think when host Ayesha mentioned the Michael Jackson song "Heaven Can Wait" this most assuredly triggered the racist tirade delivered by "Mike" and seconded by "Natasha," above. I am ashamed to read Mike and Natasha's cringeworthy comments. Ayesha's reference to Michael Jackson took the emphasis from the nostalgic golden-era (and racist) Hollywood glory days when Blacks were depicted as butlers and maids to the present day reality of Black super success as brought to us by Michael Jackson. This is typical elitist, brie eating liberalism. The kind of liberalism that wants to portray Blacks as victims so the great government-funded Liberal elitist white savior can rescue them from the evils of white Republicanism. No, Mike and Natty, you're not the kind of white racists who would light a cross at a KKK rally. You are the kind who probably laugh at movies like Blazing Saddles and are impressed by Peter Sellers in Being There, especially the Bas'setball Jones sequence. You are the kind who probably groan with dismay when you hear, or are reminded, that Michael Jackson owns the copyrights to the Beatles catalogue. You can't deal with Black success, just failure. Joe Biden's disgraceful commencement address at Morehouse College is your style. God help us! God help us!
ReplyDeleteI do not know what you mean by racist. I have multiple races in my family. I was not referring to Heaven Can Wait. I give up. I am off of this blog.
DeleteNatasha, please do not let this jerk to scare you off. He is an ignorant Trump supporter.
DeleteSDB: Thank you for support. I have so many nationalies in my family. We could joing the UN! So hurtful to read this Trumper's hateful comment. I did not even hear the first part of the broadcast. I did not know what he was referring to about MJ. song. I just heard it now.
DeleteNatasha, You should have seen the rant he posted a couple of weeks ago, but then self deleted. It was just as bad or even worse. I think I still have it on my hard drive if you want to read it. You can send me your email address. Mine is one you should be able to discover swiftly.
DeleteOk. I did not know about that. Thanks!
DeleteThat's a lot of ugly words you got there fella.
DeletePlease explain with any quotes where I said anything racist at all? I'm half Vietnamese, and I love Lulu and Audie. What a horribly lazy dogwhistle for a criticism of hosting, you are a cad to make such a leap of opinion. No wonder you were so dismissive in your reply. Cowardly fake news bs'er
DeleteNatasha, Mike and TomR:
DeleteTomorrow evening you folks are invited over to my place for what I think will be a delightful evening of watching Mel Brooks' great film, Blazing Saddles, followed by Peter Sellers in Being There. I will be providing wonderful bottles of Noval LBV Port, along with a pitcher of Negronis and a spread of French brie and red seedless grapes with crackers. I do hope you can all make it. Please arrive between 8:00 and 8:30 PM. Don't forget to wear your Vote Biden buttons!
Sounds like a plan SDB, fantastic movies that certain cretins who understand neither critique of job performance nor satire could ever hope to comprehend.
DeleteMusinglink, this just might be the least helpful clue in solving a puzzle I've ever read.
DeleteSDB: So thoughtful of you to be so kind.
DeleteR. I. P., Bill Walton.
ReplyDeleteBuck Bard, my son lives in San Diego in the same neighborhood as did Walton, and he came across this in an online SD forum:
DeleteHe was in the suite next to us one year for opening day of the padres. I caught one of those squishy padre balls from the pad squad. Well he asked to see it so I tossed it to him but he dropped it down behind the fence. He was mortified, he must’ve apologized 10 times even though I told him it was no big deal. Before he left he asked me for my address and said I’m gonna send you some things. I was thinking suuuure ya are bill. Well two months later a big ass box came in the mail. It had two signed basketballs a signed jersey and probably 20 signed pictures. With a note saying I really dropped the ball on that one 😂. What a class act RIP Mr Walton.
A good soul.
That's a wonderful story. I am not at all into team sports, but I was aware of who Bill Walton was, along with him being very tall. I got into Transcendental Meditation in 1970 and occasionally our Seattle chapter would offer weekend retreats, which we referred to as residence courses. One popular location was at a Catholic retreat location in Beaverton, Oregon, a suburb of Portland. It was run by nuns, one of which was very friendly to our organization and was popular with us. One time when I arrived there to spend a few days there was a rumor that Bill Walton was going to arrive there sometime that day. I do not remember why he was coming, but I do not think it had anything to do with why we were there. I was barely 6' tall, but this nun came up to me just after I arrived and asked if I was Bill Walton. I thought it was very funny. I never did see him, but a few years later this nun quit due to the Mother Superior who ran the place. She was opening and reading their private mail. That was the final straw.
DeleteJust to keep things sophomoric, a ditty we all know with a tune from a 1957 film mocks a character from a 1973 film.
ReplyDeleteYes, it does.
ReplyDeleteGenuinely pleased to have come up with this
ReplyDeleteWhy is it hard for funeral directors to predict their income each year?
ReplyDeleteAny business that relies on Lay-away plans will find it difficult to predict their income.
DeleteGood one. My answer was, because they never know in advance what they will urn.
DeleteThe undertaking business has long had a cloak of secrecy shrouding it from the public who in many cases is unaware of what a bone grinding job cremation is, and then to watch your work go up in smoke.
DeleteNodd,
DeleteI enjoyed your humorous post, but I have to say there was no plot to the story.
A grave omission on my part.
DeleteOkay, enough of this. Let's scatter while we can.
DeleteAgreed. I worry the mortality police may disapprove.
DeleteYou may very well be right about that, but I am not one who pays attention to hearse A.
DeleteI would presume hearse A to be reliable. After all, it is always in the black.
DeleteYou may choose his; I'll choose hearse.
DeleteI think we've hit a dead end. Let's not run this into the ground.
DeleteYes, it is time for this subject to be finally laid to rest.
DeleteAgreed. Let's go have a bier.
DeleteSorry, I have a pyre commitment.
DeleteI'm dying here! 🤣
DeleteI intend to be composted. It don't get mulch better than that.
DeleteBecause of the price volatility of formaldehyde?
Delete(Sorry, I'm one of the three ex-chemists on this blog.)
Composting -- there's a fertile ground for discussion.
DeleteTo be; or tuber; that's the question.
DeleteSo close to the deadline! I'm appalled!

Bobby Jacobs' "Puzzle Fun" is our featured "coming attraction" on this week's Puzzleria!
ReplyDeleteBobby has adopted a pseudonym this week, TIMOTHY AXOY, which coincides with his theme: "Vertically Symmetrical Vexations: Reflections from “Tim Axoy." Every answer to Bobby's trio of puzzles consists of letters that, when written in UPPERCASE LETTERS, possess vertical symmetry... like T I M O T H Y and A X O Y, for example.
We upload Puzzleria! later today, sometime before Midnight PDT.
Also on our menu this week are:
* a Schpuzzle of the Week titled “Fishy side-by-side synonyms,”
* a three-part Riffing-Off Timothy Axoy Hors d’Oeuvre titled "Hifalutin makes & models,"
* a Baptismal Slice titled “Out damn stainy sinful spot!”
* a "poetic" Iambic Dessert titled “Old King Alf’s rambling wager,” and
* eleven Riffing Off Shortz And Fecho Slices, titled “A round of Guinness, Barkeep!” including six created by Nodd, one by Plantsmith and two by a valued friend of Puzzleria!

Here's my chat with ChatGPT:
what was alec guinness's favorite movie?
Alec Guinness, the esteemed British actor, had a varied career with numerous acclaimed performances. While there isn't a definitive answer to what his favorite movie was, Guinness himself expressed a certain fondness for "The Bridge on the River Kwai" (1957), a film directed by David Lean in which Guinness portrayed Colonel Nicholson. The role earned him an Academy Award for Best Actor. However, Guinness had a diverse body of work, so it's challenging to pinpoint a single favorite film.
what was alec guinness's favorite role?
Alec Guinness was famously reticent about discussing his personal preferences regarding his roles. However, he did express great fondness for his portrayal of George Smiley in the television adaptation of John le Carré's spy novels, particularly in "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy" (1979) and "Smiley's People" (1982). Guinness's nuanced performance as the quietly formidable intelligence officer earned him critical acclaim and remains one of his most iconic roles. While he never definitively declared it his favorite, his dedication to the character and the quality of his portrayal suggest it held a special place in his heart.
what was alec guinness's favorite movie role?
Alec Guinness was known for being somewhat private about his personal preferences, including his favorite movie roles. However, one role that Guinness himself spoke highly of was his portrayal of Obi-Wan Kenobi in the original "Star Wars" trilogy. Despite initially being skeptical about the film's success, Guinness's performance as the wise and enigmatic Jedi Master became iconic and endeared him to generations of fans. While he may not have explicitly declared it his favorite, his involvement in the "Star Wars" saga left a significant mark on both cinema and popular culture.
what about "tunes of glory"?
"Tunes of Glory" is another film that Alec Guinness held in high regard. In this 1960 British drama directed by Ronald Neame, Guinness starred alongside John Mills. Guinness's performance as Lieutenant Colonel Jock Sinclair, a charismatic but flawed military officer, was praised for its depth and complexity. The film explores themes of leadership, honor, and the clash of personalities within a Scottish Highland regiment. Guinness's portrayal in "Tunes of Glory" is often cited as one of his finest, showcasing his versatility as an actor and his ability to inhabit complex characters. While he may not have explicitly stated it was his favorite, his involvement in the film and his dedication to the role suggest it held significant importance to him.
ALE <— ALEC GUINNESS
ReplyDeleteHint: “Eliminate three consecutive letters in the actor’s surname, and the remaining letters in order spell a word relevant to this blog.”
GUINNESS -INN—> GUESS
ALEC GUINNESS
ReplyDeleteAlec Baldwin works as well, but not as nicely, since I've never seen someone order a Baldwin Ale, though it exists.
My clue:
I came up with two answers. When I put my head to it, though, I narrowed it to the better choice.
The Head obviously refers to the Head of the Glass of Ale.
Ben - I was above that you are retired Chemist from NY. Small world, I took my B.Ch.E at CCNY (Class of '69.)
DeleteAnd I said "Good for you!" That's one of their selling points: Guinness is good for you.
DeleteI'm not a retired Chemist, since I've never actually been employed as a Chemist. But I do have a BS in Chemistry from the Leland Stanford Junior University, but over a decade after yours, from City (I'm so young!)
DeleteTunes Of Glory is the title of the 1960 movie.
ReplyDeleteyep watched it on memorial day, very well written story
DeleteYes, but I doubt it would have been anywhere as good had it not been for the great cast and acting.
DeleteI wrote, “Rearrange the letters in odd positions in the actor’s name. You get something that can be found in a family tree.” That’s UNCLES.
ReplyDeleteThe letters in the odd positions are A E G I E S. You must have meant the even positions.
DeleteLOL! Right! To save face, I will claim that I was just going for another level of obscurity.
DeleteYou can say the hint would have been TMI if it had referenced the odd letters.
DeleteWhen Iris Corona mentioned that her child is named after the actor, I added,
ReplyDelete"Wow, that is quite a coincidence!
Although, hmmmmmm. He may be misnamed."
Because Corona is another beer! But it is not an Ale, so... misnamed.
Alec Guinness, Guinness Ale
ReplyDeleteALEC GUINESS. I wrote that the answer reminded me of a household cleaning product. In Our Man in Havana, Guiness played a vacuum cleaner seller.
ReplyDeleteSorry I’m late posting this week. Out on errands.
ReplyDeleteAlec Guiness --> ale
Last Sunday I said, “Hope this isn’t TMI, but it isn’t Cary Grantmobile. Last Sunday, I posted this just fooling around. Hadn’t the slightest idea there was a car company called Grant Motor Company. So bad on me, but at least I’m certain it wasn’t the intended answer.
