Looking at the list, I think you need to slightly adjust the description of the face-off. These are all actresses who had major career success in the 40s and 50s. My initial thought was to suggest names from the 20s and 30s, but I don¹t think that is where you are going. BTW, the list looks good for those rules (career after 1945 and before 1960)
