Sure thing.

First of all, the title: HAIL MARY .... Full of GRACE (it's about movies starring Grace Kelly)

CITADEL, EVEN TO SHAKESPEARE, NOT MINE OR YOURS - Fourteen Hours - Fort E'en Ours

ABOVE, A DAILY PALINDROME - High Noon

ONE STOOGE! ONE LEG! ONE UM COACH??? - Mogambo (ha ha nice one) - Moe, Gam (old slang for leg) Bo (I'm sure there's a coach named Bo out there somewhere, but since the rest fit....)

PERISH ONE APOLLO CRAFT, AND MOVE IN FOR D-KILL - Dial M for Murder - Apollo 13 (M is the 13th letter)

BRING IT UP IF YOU LIKE, BUT IT’S TRANSPARENT - Rear Window - Rear (as in to raise) Window is transparent

ENUMERATE, NAUGHTY WITHOUT HAIR? NOT HE! - The Country Girl - Count (don't know about the naughty part) Not He = girl

ITS NOT EASY, COME ON BABY, LIGHT IT. - Green Fire - It's not Easy Being Green (Kermit the frog song), Come on Baby Light my fire (the Doors song)

A PASSAGE ABOVE 40,050-127,517 - The Bridge at Toko-Ri (nice clue) - I believe that the numbers are the lat and long of Toko-Ri

BEE APPREHEND, ONE TAKER - To Catch a Thief - B is the second letter, thus Two, Catch, a Thief

CLOSE TO THE ROSE AND SIMILAR IN FUNCTION (SEE PART OF THE CLUE FOR #1) - The Swan? (got that by elimination only) (still have no idea on this one)

ONE STOOGE! ONE LEG! ONE UM COACH??? - Mogambo (ha ha nice one) - Moe, Gam (old slang for leg) Bo (I'm sure there's a coach named Bo out there somewhere, but since the rest fit....) Bo Schembechler was the Coach at University of Michigan, hence the "UM COACH"

PERISH ONE APOLLO CRAFT, AND MOVE IN FOR D-KILL - Dial M for Murder - Apollo 13 (M is the 13th letter) the answer is correct, and I think that it is cool that you found another plausible solution...but I was thinking PERISH=DIE...ONE APOLLO CRAFT=A LEM (lunar expedition module)... D=4...KILL=MURDER

So say it with me now: DIE A LEM 4 MURDER!

BRING IT UP IF YOU LIKE, BUT IT’S TRANSPARENT - Rear Window - Rear (as in to raise) Window is transparent

ENUMERATE, NAUGHTY WITHOUT HAIR? NOT HE! - The Country Girl - Count (don't know about the naughty part) Not He = girl The naughty part is RIBALD "without hair" or "bald", so you are left with COUNT+RI GIRL...Country Girl!

ITS NOT EASY, COME ON BABY, LIGHT IT. - Green Fire - It's not Easy Being Green (Kermit the frog song), Come on Baby Light my fire (the Doors song)

A PASSAGE ABOVE 40,050-127,517 - The Bridge at Toko-Ri (nice clue) - I believe that the numbers are the lat and long of Toko-Ri Indeed they are, but I suppose you figured this one out after guessing the theme!

BEE APPREHEND, ONE TAKER - To Catch a Thief - B is the second letter, thus Two, Catch, a Thief

CLOSE TO THE ROSE AND SIMILAR IN FUNCTION (SEE PART OF THE CLUE FOR #1) - The Swan? (got that by elimination only) (still have no idea on this one) See the first clue...start googling "rose" in addition to the other words in the first clue, one at a time...you'll get it, and you might learn something!

THE UPPERMOST ASSEMBLAGE OF HUMANITY - High Society

Cripes! Sadly (for you) PoudreAvenger, you understand how I think...I will have to change my game a bit.

By the way, you are almost 100% correct, see edits to your spoiler above...

So for those of you who havent caught on yet, the theme is:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grace_Kelly

If you have never seen Rear Window, I suggest you log off, and go do so immediately. I have two words for her in that film, and both of them are "hubba".

Thanks for playing, I guess I will just have to find a way to stump the mighty PoudreAvenger!

Stay tuned!
