Sorry for the late reply.

So, to catch everyone up here are all the questions and answers:

British? No
Currently living? No
If no, were you ever living? Yes
If yes, are you famous for things you've done since 2000? No
Was your work in the 20th century? Yes
Was it in science? No
Was it in entertainment? Yes
Were you in Films? Yes
Composer? No
American? Yes
Female? No

Where you an Actor?
If no were you a director?

I'll just let the Japanese composer go. She was Keiko Matsui, a well known Japanese Jazz artist. Anyone who knows smooth jazz knows her.

Were you an Actor? Yes

Was the main body of your work after 1980?

No. It was before.

@figle: Were you thinking River Phoenix?

So a dead American Male Actor of color films...

Did you have AIDS?

No. Such a thing has never been reported on.

Rock Hudson? No :P

No, I thought it would be a good split point to narrow down the hunt. Could have gone for genre but couldn't think of any way to break them into large enough sections that I wasn't just wasting guesses/time. Did consider asking how much is the largest any of your films had made, but seemed rather boring method.

Are you American? [I'm expecting so, but if not this would be great :P ]

Well, you knew where I was going...

Did you like to race cars and motorcycles?

@figle - already asked and answered. See his review of the questions above.

@Sarge, what has never been reported on? Rock Hudson came out and said he had AIDS.

Wow, I'm blind. Saw the not British, not the is American.
Will save my next question until I've refreshed.

@Sarge, what has never been reported on? Rock Hudson came out and said he had AIDS.

I fail to understand your confusion here. My comments were clearly seperated.
My point was that in answer to your question on who I am, no he did not have AIDS but I added that such a thing has never been reported on. Perhaps an 'although' may have helped.

I then said 'Rock Hudson?' because I figured your AIDS question might have been based on you think it was Hudson. :)

Did you like to race cars and motorcycles? Yes.

I think you may have it :P

Wow, no more Draug questions.
Right then, if not racing:
Are you known for your ability to dance?

Hm. Am I comments not showing on the forums for some reason or are they being ignored intentionally?

Did you like to race cars and motorcycles? Yes.

Are you known for your ability to dance? No.

Gotcha. So your are saying to the best of your knowledge the actor never had AIDS.

Are you Steve McQueen?

If I'm right, someone else can take my turn. I've got stuff to do.

Steve McQueen? No

James Dean?
