In the movie(A), one of the main characters goes to the movies. The movie(B) he sees is actually based on his life, a little loosely. The movie(B) (a real movie you've probably seen, with lots of quotable lines and four sequels) was loosely based on the same story as movie(A).
The real life person portrayed in movie(A) attended a premiere screening.
Which means, a man went to see a movie, where he saw a man playing himself going to see a movie where a man plays himself.

I can't think of a crime movie with four sequels. Your clues remind me of a hijinks-type movie which refers to a crime movie with TWO sequels. I'm sure that's not it. I may save them for my next turn. :)
Four sequels. The last and least was released in 1988. The one before that gave us a movie line arguably more famous than the super famous line from the first film.
OK.. This movie is a remake of a Hitchcock film. Half of the plot was rewritten or altered and all the characters names were changed. Any guesses. :biglaugh:/>. Just kidding
When a bond fund broker is caught making illegal investments he hires a con-artist to kill his young and rich wife. The plan is altered when the con-artist learns of the brokers wealth and tries to extort money for himself. Meanwhile, Gwyneth Paltrow is acquitted of a double murder.
In this musical, one of the songs has the lead female character compared with 19 other women: Mavis and Sybil [have ways that are winning,] Prudence and Gwendolyn [set your heart spinning,] Phoebe [delightful,] Maude [is disarming,] Janis, Felicia, Lydia [charming,] Cynthia [dashing,] Vivian ['s sweet,] Stephanie [smashing,] Priscilla [a treat,] Veronica, Millicent, Agnes, Jane [convivial company time and again,] Doris, Phyllis, Glynis [of sorts, I'll agree are three jolly good sports].
The child actors were kept in the dark about certain "magical" sequences, so that their expressions of awe were real.
One of the children was afraid of heights, so he was coaxed with a 10-cent "bonus" for every take of a "floating" scene.

Why didn't you say that 2 days ago Mr. Wolf? Your right Rottie, They are pretty good. Makes it tough on me to get my 2 cents in.

I was way off going with "The Terminal", except that it didn't have any articles of clothing in the title. I assume WordWolf is correct, but I'm not familiar with it. But that's not unusual.

Stallone. Also well-known for reprising his Rocky role. I can't see him in Eddie Murphy's role in BHC, though... George

I thought that you were doing a Sean Connery "impression."
CONNERy is not a star of this film.

No? Hmmm.
No? Hmmm.
Ah. I had the right movie, but i thought Connery was in it because I confused it with The Rock.
That reminds me of...
I'm rambling, aren't i?
Snapping out of it.

This movie(A) is based on a true story.
In the movie(A), one of the main characters goes to the movies. The movie(B) he sees is actually based on his life, a little loosely. The movie(B) (a real movie you've probably seen, with lots of quotable lines and four sequels) was loosely based on the same story as movie(A).
The real life person portrayed in movie(A) attended a premiere screening.
Which means, a man went to see a movie, where he saw a man playing himself going to see a movie where a man plays himself.
The genre is crime.
Name either movie(A) or movie(B)

Dirty Harry. It has 4 sequels. The Dead Pool [the last] was made in 1988.

Dirty Harry tracked a serial killer named Scorpio. It was loosely based on San Francisco detective David Toschi, who investigated the Zodiac murders.
In the movie Zodiac, the character Toschi sees Dirty Harry.
Toschi, the real guy, attended a screening of Zodiac, and watched an actor playing him going to the movies to watch ANOTHER actor playing him.
...
Sudden Impact is the movie that gave us the line "Go ahead. Make my day." Arguably as famous as (paraphrasing) "You feeling lucky, punk?"

Actually what I had was for the Name that Flick thread so it might be a little longer before I go.
If anyone has something now go ahead.

Is this a Before-And-After on the Movie Mashup thread?
(Any movie, any type of clue, others must guess its name.)

Good catch Mr. Wolf. It's not a Before and After game clue. Let's go then with a list of characters from this movie.
On second thought, let's just pass and say I did.

The first clue stumps me.
The only musical that reminds me of the others is "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory."

A worthy guess, but incorrect.
(At least as of 2006) this Disney film won the greatest number of Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actress, Lead Role.
A 2013 film described the backstory and making of this film.

Sound of Music just had a documentary about the making of it. But that wasn't Disney.
Is it Mary Poppins?

On the off-chance it's not,
I'll throw in "Bedknobs and Broomsticks" as a guess.

It is.
In the
"Jolly Holiday" sequence, a number of ladies are compared to Mary
The "magic medicine" and "Mary pulls everything out of her bag" shots were a surprise to the kids.
"Michael" was afraid of heights, so he was bribed to do the floating tea party scene.
"Saving Mr. Banks" was about the origin of the MP movie.
