I'm posting this now as I wont have time to do it in the morning. I didnt post it around 9pm like I'd hoped as I was having too much fun at DejaBoo's ms paint reveal for Halloween. It wont close until the afternoon.
I thought the Viola Davis / Bill Pullman & Jamie Foxx / Jonathan Frakes ties were going to be closer particularly as Mr. Frakes bolted into a 3-1 lead early on. Jodell Ferland had a tough break drawing Kevin Bacon. Sometimes the underdog wins and sometimes they dont.
There are some real legendary cinematic names in the next group. This is a tough draw and obviously they cant all make it through.

Results:
Peter Cushing 6 v 4 Faye Dunaway
Kevin Bacon 9 v 1 Jodell Ferland
Jamie Foxx 7 v 3 Jonathan Frakes
Viola Davis 3 v 7 Bill Pullman
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Katharine Hepburn - Walked around the studio in her underwear in the early 1930s when the costume department stole her slacks from her dressing room. She refused to put anything else on until they were returned.

Barry Fitzgerald - Broke the head off his 'Best Supporting Actor' Oscar (Going My Way (1944)) practicing his golf swing.
https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0280178/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elizabeth Perkins - Got the role of "Susan Lawrence" in Big (1988) after Debra Winger withdrew due to pregnancy. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001610/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0
Ian McKellen - Was a member of the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) in Stratford-upon-Avon at the same time as Sir Patrick Stewart.
https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005212/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Matthew Rhys - He played Justin Price in Columbo: Columbo Likes the Nightlife (2003) and is therefore the final actor to play a murderer who was investigated by Peter Falk's Lt. Columbo.
https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0722629/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0
Ingrid Bergman - Visited Hotel Panamonte in Panama twice, and so the suite was named after her. Flavored with vibrations from Hollywood's "Golden Heyday," her luxurious rooms retain their original décor.
https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000006/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rock Hudson - Worked as a truck driver when he first moved to Los Angeles, but he spent his spare time idling outside of studio gates and sending photographs of himself to various producers. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001369/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0
John Wayne - He considered Maureen O'Hara one of his best friends; over the years he was more open to her than anyone. When asked about her he always replied, "The greatest guy I ever knew." They were friends for 39 years, from 1940 until his death in 1979. Today she is considered by many to be his best leading lady; they starred in five films together. She referred to a wing in her home as the "John Wayne Wing".
