*Rush* is riiiiiight. Lavender, you got there first by about four minutes. Its yours. Go for it. (5,822) some 74 views.

Negative re *Dirty Laundry* *7.* The real-life events fictionalized in this film took place in and around Tyler, Texas.

*6.* Four years after the release of this film, the bar owner / drug dealer was inducted, with his band, into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame.

BRIT -- He left in his socks. AMER -- He just split; no time for prep.

Audie Murphy played Jesse James, early in his career in *Kansas Raiders* (1950). In his last film role, Murphy again played Jesse in *A Time For Dying* (1969).

*31* once again. "Hey, uh, in my purse over on the mantle? Feel free to help yourself to a Certs!"

Dudley, no contest. QUICKDRAW (or QUEEKSTRAW) MCGRAW or AUGIE DOGGIE'S DADDY. How many of our current posters, do you think, saw these programs when first aired? Message was edited by: cmvgor

> New Jack City? Negative; that is an NYC setting. This story is set in a Southwestern location, among deeply tanned napes. *5.* Under pressure from the bosses, the male undercover gives perjured testimony that he bought drugs from the bar owner / drug boss. He gets killed for that. The female operative testifies truthfully, and the drug boss is released. Again the drug boss finds someone sacked out in the back seat of his car. He starts to take the promised action, but it is the female undercover and a sawedoff shotgun waiting back there. She wanted him on the street where she could get at him.

*4.* An undercover is working as a bartender. A woman cadet is recruited straight out of the Police Academy to work with him. Her value is that the other ploice in the area have not seen her on the job, and won't spot her for what she is. Soon they have made so many buys -- under pressure from the bosses -- that the dealers are suspicious. "The general word is that _nobody_ can use all the stuff you two are buyin'"

Carlyle, Max -- Wesley Snipes in *One Night Stand*.

*3.* 1991. A rock-band member, big at that time. had the role of a drug kingpin fronting as a bar owner. In an early scene, he finds a hophead has used the back seat of his luxury car to go to sleep. He beats the man up and threatens to kill him if he's caught there again.

*2.* The drug dealers are smart. Make a drug buy, they hold a shotgun on you and you have to (shoot up, snort up, take the pill) right in front of them. They hope to assure themselves that way that you are not entraping them. Some undercover cops become addicted this way.

Zachery, Rachel -- Audry Hepburn in *The Unforgiven*, (1960)

I knew this answer a few clues ago but neglected to respond because I don't have access (or time) often enough to adequately pose a question of my own. I'll try one after getting confirmation that I'm correct. I apologize in advance if my responses are slow. > > Thanks, > UC UC; Whew! I was composing my last answer when you logged on with the above comment. Suggestion: Knowing what you do, you may consider going on the TCM list pages and contributing a synopsis. At any rate, I now feel less like an oddball. Thanks. Thread is open.

As the one Amish acquaintance of my life would have said: It wonders me. It wonders me that the readership of these Boards don't recognize a description of 1975's *A Boy And His Dog*. It had Don Johnson in the lead, Jason Robards in support. Based on a novella by SF superstar Harlan Ellison. Director L.Q. Jones turned in a long career of solid support performances that approached brilliance when he had the catalyst of Strother Martin as a partner and Sam Peckinpah as a director. And it was not just Trivia buffs. I did a scroll-through of the "Science Fiction" and "Cult Movies" Forums, and found no mention of it. (With the 19 pages in the SF Forum, I didn't take time to go on to every "name this movie" thread.) Anyway, its there. Its on the TCM list with brief-but-adequate description. Anyone curious enough to look it up may want to skip the next sentence; its a spoiler. He kills the girl and feeds her to the dog, thus saving the life of his only dependable friend. This Thread is open.

Having gone all the way without a correct answer, I'm posing another one. *1.* Undercover narocotics officers in a small-city Southwest location. Undercover; also understaffed, underfunded, undersupported by the department they were working for. Fact-based. (5,740)

96 views, 3 responses. British title -- *A Very Important Person*. American title -- *A Coming - Out Party*. I'm now thinking that in the list of well-regarded films on POW themes, this one, with its comic elements, just didn't travel well outside the UK. The star, _James Robertson Justice_ , was the mission master that briefed the commandos who took on the *Guns Of Navarrone* mission. As mentioned previously, The TCM list does include this title, and it has a synopsis. Message was edited by: cmvgor
