Question: Do both Artists And Models (1937 Film) and The Gong Show Movie films have the directors from the same country?

Artists and Models is a 1937 black- and- white American musical comedy film, directed by Raoul Walsh and starring Jack Benny and Ida Lupino. It was produced by Lewis E. Gensler. In 1937, the film received an Oscar nomination at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for Best Song:" Whispers in the Dark", sung by Connee Boswell with" Andre Kostelanetz and His Orchestra". Guest Stars( as themselves): <SEP> Eugene Sidney Patton Sr. (April 25, 1932 – March 9, 2015), also known as Gene Patton and more widely known by his stage name Gene Gene the Dancing Machine, was a television personality, dancer and stagehand who worked at NBC Studios in Burbank, California. Patton was the first African-American member of the International Alliance of Theatrical and Stage Employees, Local 33. Patton's claim to fame, however, was from his various appearances on the network's talent search game show, "The Gong Show". In addition to his stage duties, Patton was one of several amateur performers who would warm up and entertain the audience during commercial breaks. Host Chuck Barris found him so entertaining that he had him dance on the show on-air, and he proved so popular that he soon became a recurring act, then an occasional judge. The genial Patton usually wore the same outfit each time he appeared, which consisted of a green sweater jacket, a flat cap, bell-bottomed slacks, and sneakers. On "The Gong Show", Patton's appearances were treated as if they were spontaneous (in reality, they were always written into the show). After Barris would finish with a certain act, the piano player in Milton DeLugg's band would begin to play in octaves the familiar bass line of the first few bars of "Jumpin' at the Woodside", a popular Count Basie tune, and the proceedings would come to an immediate halt once Barris heard the music. Barris would usually react with gleeful surprise, then announce the arrival of Gene Gene. The curtain would then rise and Patton would come out moving his feet and shoulders to the music, with Barris usually dancing along. DeLugg's arrangement morphed perfectly into Basie's "One O'Clock Jump" at which time Gene showed off his trademark "armspread" move, along with everyone else in the house. Patton's fellow stagehands would toss all manner of things onto the stage while he continued to dance. Through his performances, Patton gained membership in AFTRA. Patton performed on the NBC edition of "The Gong Show" until its cancellation in the summer of 1978 and on the weekly syndicated series until it was cancelled in 1980. For the last two seasons of the syndicated series, Patton's appearances were scaled back significantly; NBC had evicted "The Gong Show" from its studios after its cancellation and production moved to what is now KTLA's studios in Los Angeles; since Patton was a full-time NBC employee, he remained there. <SEP> “ The Unknown Comic ” is the stage name adopted by Canadian actor and stand- up comic Murray Langston( born June 27, 1945 in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada), best known for his comic performances on" The Gong Show," in which he usually appeared with a paper bag over his head. <SEP> Raoul A. Walsh( March 11, 1887 December 31, 1980) was an American film director, actor, founding member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences( AMPAS) and the brother of the silent screen actor George Walsh. He was known for portraying John Wilkes Booth in the silent classic" The Birth of a Nation"( 1915) and for directing such films as" The Big Trail"( 1930), starring John Wayne," High Sierra"( 1941), starring Ida Lupino and Humphrey Bogart; and" White Heat"( 1949), starring James Cagney and Edmond O'Brien. He directed his last film in 1964. <SEP> The Gong Show Movie is a 1980 American comedy film starring, written and directed by Chuck Barris. <SEP> Barris was known for hosting" The Gong Show" and creating" The Dating Game" and" The Newlywed Game". He was also a songwriter who wrote" Palisades Park" for Freddy Cannon. Charles Hirsch Barris( June 3, 1929 – March 21, 2017) was an American game show creator, producer and host. Barris wrote an autobiography titled" Confessions of a Dangerous Mind", which was made into the film of the same name directed by George Clooney.
