A Trivia-like question, but relevent

I originally posted this in the off-topic sub forum but it isn't really off topic and it was suggested to be re-posted here. So here it is, slightly reformulated.

I know of one mainstream actress who has been in two movies with quicksand scenes, although she was IN only one of those scenes. Vera Miles was in the quicksand in Tarzan's Hidden Jungle, and she was a character is Psycho, although not the one who sank.

There are really two questions that need answering.

First, are there any actresses who have done quicksand scenes in more than one movie?

And second, if there are any who have done scenes in more than one movie, who has done the most?

Obviously, for purposes of this question we are talking about mainstream and/or minor mainstream movies onlu, and not scenes filmed by people like myself and the other quicksand producers. In the case of actresses who may have done scenes for us quicksand producers as well as in more mainstream movies, only those scenes done in the more mainstream environment can be counted.

And, I will add, that cartoon characters do not count.

Okay, how about this for a start - Suzanne Ridgeway of From Hell it Came was also in the Mickey Rooney film nor classic Quicksand! So you could say she was in quicksand twice. :mrgreen:

My answer probably won't count because it's a TV show, but Maura West did a couple of scenes in As the World Turns.

Seems relevant enugh. Why don't we just divide the questio so as to try to find whomever did the most in movies and whomever did the most in TV.

Sally Field did at least two, one as The Flying Nun and one as Gidget.

Never mind. I just checked. It wasn't Sally Field in the New Gidget.

Jessica Biel comes to mind. I know she was in a quicksand scene in the Tall Man but thought she was maybe in another. Probably not but love the thought of it.
