2012 Favorite Classic Movie Actress Tourney: 1960's Era-Round 1 (Sophisticates and Drama Queens)

And finally we begin. Well in two more days. But here are the scheduled matches for two of the four categories: Sophisticates and Drama Queens. Voting begins Monday morning and will run through Wednesday night. Then on Thursday we shall begin with the other two categories of Funny Ladies/Girls Next Door and Singers/Dancers. I shall post those matches probably Tuesday. Those matches will run through Saturday night. We shall do a wrap-up on Sunday of this first round. And then start round 2 on Monday, provided there are no ties and then we will have a tie breaker match. So below are the scheduled matches and the polls are on the right hand sidebar. Only one vote per match. I will post daily updates on all the scheduled matches going on here and in the other blogs as well. Now let's get this thing started!
