While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:
  • Merle Oberon (1911–1979) was an actress born in Mumbai (then known as Bombay), India.
  • She was of Indian, Maori, and Irish heritage.
  • She was the first Indian-born actress to be nominated for an Academy Award.
  • Early in her career, she played many nameless, uncredited roles, such as her role in Strange Evidence (1933).
  • Later, she played many named, credited roles, such as Jill Baker in That Uncertain Feeling (1941).
The student wants to emphasize a similarity between the two films. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?
A
Strange Evidence (1933) was released early in actress Merle Oberon’s career, whereas That Uncertain Feeling (1941) came out later.
B
Early in her career, Merle Oberon wasn’t listed in some film credits, such as the credits for the film Strange Evidence, where she played a nameless, uncredited role.
C
Strange Evidence and That Uncertain Feeling are both films that include Merle Oberon, the first Indian-born actress to be nominated for an Academy Award.
D
In Strange Evidence (1933), actress Merle Oberon played a nameless, uncredited role; however, in That Uncertain Feeling (1941), she played a credited role—that of Jill Baker.
