Got 'em all with 3 minutes left except Eva Peron. Finally gave up on her. Great quiz.

Surprised to have gotten them all. Getting Peron was a sort of shot in the dark.

Same here. OK for someone barely old enough to remember the 70s.

WHO? - If nothing else, one should remember that Khrushchev begins with a "K".

There are many different ways to spell his name in the latin alphabet. For non-English native speakers it can be very difficult to guess how a russian name would be spelled in English. So accepting different spellings shouldn't be too much asked.

What? - Only Smith? What about Smyth, Smythe, Smid, Smidt, Schmidt, Smote, Stith or Stoth? (LMFBAO)

I scored 16/16, but then looking at my stats, I've previously scored 19 for this quiz?? Strange.

I just noticed that. My high score is 19, too. I missed one previously so apparently an entire line was deleted from the quiz.

Based on the political cartoons of the day, I expected Khruschev to look fatter.

Not really. He was president of SAG, but otherwise a relatively minor actor. He did not get into politics until the 60s (ran for California governor in 1966). He would probably be more appropriately placed in the 1960s or 1980s quiz.

I wouldn’t call him a minor actor. He was in a lot of westerns and war movies, although I think his better ones were in the ‘40s. His line is often quoted from The Knute Rockne Story: “Win just one more for the Gipper.” (Let’s not mention Bedtime for Bonzo.)

Is it just me or do all the Soviet leaders between Stalin and Gorbachev seem to look the same? I can never keep them straight, but probably just a generational thing as I grew up in the 70s/80s.

"Norma Jeane" should be accepted as type in for Marilin Monroe, "Richard Penniman" should be accepted for Lilltle Richard.

Sure, just as Dino Paul Crocetti should be accepted for Dean Martin, and Kappelhoff for Doris Day...!! -_-;

Pedantry aside, using the name they are most well known by makes much more sense, does it not!

Can't believe I missed Grace Kelly. Was hypnotized by her eyes, that's my excuse and I am sticking to it. I always thought she was one of the most beautiful actresses ever.
