  1. These people are in a summer home, on the Pacific coast; the time is approaching when they will return home. The tutor fixes on the wife as the person most likely to be able to give him a permanent place with this family.

  2. Not *Tomorrow The World*.

    The husband is a successful business owner. The wife runs the family otherwise, and she has social and artistic pretensions. The son feels crowded by his father's strength and his mother's domination. The daughter has some shallow (ditsy) romantic notions. They all react in their own ways to the tutor's presence.

  3. There are hints of Nazi oppression experiences in the tutor's background. The source is a stage play about a British family, which became a film about an American family. Removal in both time and distance from Germany weakened the force of the story according to commentary as of relase date.

    Not really, finance. I concentrate on, and enjoy, themes, plot points, performers, directors and trends in genres. I'm less interested in matters such as off-set relationships, fanzene matters,

    friendships, spats, etc. I enjoy Trivia; but I know Minutiae when I see it.

  5. Aaaa, close enough. Actually the line is from *Lover Come Back* (1961) in which a woman on a hospital gurney has just been married, ceremony in the elivator, while on the way up to the maternity ward to deliver her baby. A hospital orderly, had the line.

     

    rhodaq's line.

  6. Thanks, phroso. BTW, I posed *Boy/Dog* on one of these threads oh, about a year ago. Went through all the clues I could come up with, finally gave up and retired the question. Turns out a user who knew the answer early on felt one shouldn't answer on these threads without being able to post another question immediately. I almost answered and then opened the thread in this case but then a fairly good one came to my attention:

     

    *1.* Serial killer in a frontier town. Usually employs some form of strangulation.

  7. I saw that film once, several years ago, and I'm not eager to see it again. I was impressed by the drama and the performances, though,and the memory stayed with me.

     

    New one: Family drama. B&W.
