Episode from Twilight Zone

Resolved

Could anyone please tell me the name of the Twilight Zone episode which featured an elderly lady receiving phone calls from her dead lover; it's later discovered that a telephone wire had fallen across his tombstone. Thanks.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 09:19, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Night Call. ---Sluzzelin talk 09:38, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. How creepy it was originally scheduled to be aired on 22 November 1963! Brrrrrrrrr......I feel goosebumps.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 10:13, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean "quiet?" Britmax (talk) 15:17, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There is a LOT of discussion about the origin of this on the web, most of it speculative, but overall search results suggest "It's quiet, too quiet" was used by John Wayne in the 1934 film The Lucky Texan.--Shantavira|^{feed me} 16:53, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

thank you shantavira yes it is said by john wayne in that movie i've a feeling he is being attcked by the bad guys,but i also thought it was with soldiers but as youve stated alot of speculation.may be there is was a line that was almost the same. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.185.14.15 (talk) 20:06, 1 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oscar expenses

When, say, a group of British technicians is nominated for an Oscar, who pays for their flights and accommodation in Hollywood?--Shantavira|^{feed me} 17:30, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'd guess that they are on their own for those expenses, unless the company they were working for when they did their Oscar-worthy activities was willing to foot the bill, considering it to be good PR. StuRat (talk) 21:22, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
