Negative re Lulu Baines.

Early 60s. The line is given by an Oscar winner giving an Oscar-winning performance in a movie with an Oscar-winning script. I'll retire it tomorrow if it hasn't been named by then.

At ten views, you did it again, ladyeve, and its your thread again.

Thanks, ladyeve. I saw *Twilight* while it was still in the theaters, and I don't think I've even heard from it since. Considering that cast, it seems a waste. I'll try a one-clue treatment on an early 1950s B&W film. Domestic drama inside and outside a house that is home to three generations. A school-age boy wanting to save up and buy a bicycle. His siblings, a grandfather, a neighborhood bully. Conflict in the family, giving him thoughts of running away. Money conflicts within the family, irritation at the grandfather's presence. Then a developlment that has occured to adolescents before. -- He learns of a circus that is coming to town. Perhaps the perfect runaway opportunity. Things reach a point where the boy is actually starting to pack up for departure. Then he finds the diary that the grandfather kept when he was a lad. The story goes into flashback to the grandfather's memories of his boyhood. A good young actor, who was established already as a very compitent performer, portrays both the lad of the present and the grandfather in his youth. Reading about the grandfather's past conflicts with a situation much like his own, the boy reaches an understanding that makes for additude changes, and makes things much easier for him. It has a realistic resolution of problems, and not a maudlin happy ending. The film? (4,608)

Parker -- Yaphet Kotto in *Alien*. 1979

Correct. At 40 Views, ladyeve has it. Your thread.

The same lucky young man. He needs to cash a paycheck on a day when all the banks are closed. Goes to a pawnshop. The pawnbroker won't cash the check unless he makes a purchase -- $10 minimum. He selects a lame pair of binoculars price-tagged at $9.00. To satisfy the other $1.00, he purchases the winning ticket of the first New York State Lottery. It has a value in excess of six million dollars! Oh, didn't I mention? This is a true story. The subject of this biopic even took a role in the movie-- playing his own brother.
