Done and done with the Carol Burnett Show episode of 20 September 1975. Open thread.

Walter -- Haley Joel Osment in *Secondhand Lions* (2002)

At some 170 Views, including some sidebar discussion: mudskipper seems otherwise occupied; continuing the question, perhaps to have it answered before he logs in to record a decision. Next clue: ♫ I'm so glad we had this time together...♪

Yo, Lonesome; I don't recognize that one, and it doesn't Google, not on any site I have access to. Any hints as to context, time issued, etc?

*157* "...not my fault, damnit, I couldn't help it! All my life I never could stand losing at Tickle Fight!"

Thanks, but nothing comes to mind right now. Open thread.

*157* "That'll teach her to steal somebody else's blonde wig!"

Edward Everett Horton. That guy really knew how to tell a fractured fairy tale, didn't he?

Yo, Sixes, Want this? Wanta open it?

*157* "I used a Webbley-Vickers PPK .32 caliber semi-automatic with a seven-round magazine. Emptied it. Like they told me at the shop, "really nifty little ladies' gun."

Addressing mudskipper: skipper, can you log on and settle this? I assumed 'open thread' -- and posted a new question -- after it was idle for two days. Please settle the disagreement. Edited by: flashback42 on Jun 15, 2012 8:18 AM

Stover, Mamie -- Jane Russell in *The Revolt of Mamie Stover* (1956)

Noah -- John Huston (who also directed and narrated) in *The Bible: In the Beginning* (1966)

Ooooooh! I misread and went for Ms. Lawrence's written bio ( A Star Danced ) rather than the biopic. As for Joe Dee and the Starlighters, that group (and The Twist) came and mostly went while I was, uh, living abroad. I do remember "The Pepperment Twist" and Chubby Checker's hits playing occasionally on the American Forces Network (AFN). Joe Dee and the Starlighters ??? If I'm correct, open thread. But this was fun.

DELEATED. Wrong thread Edited by: flashback42 on Jun 13, 2012 10:41 PM

I'm retiring this one, partly because I'm working without proof, and hoping someone else can confirm for me. 1990's *Mr. and Mrs Bridge*, with Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward as the title characters, does not even have a "memorable quotes" list on the IMDb site. But I believe I remember Mr. Newman saying the line twice -- in one conversation. He makes the statement, then repeats it at another character's request. If anyone has a copy of the film and can confirm or refute my memory on this point, it would be appreciated. Either way, thread is open.

:^0 This is priceless. Miles got it. The answer is "open thread". A joke. Was it a good one?? ?:| And I'm stumped by the one Miles left: So far, I'm guessing: Joe...Wee...Sandra Dee...And the...A Star Danced...Light...Her. I can't put it together in any meaningful fashion. Can you?

Yo, T-One, On the money, and your thread.

This series was one of the biggest, ever, in terms of quality and longevity. And this guest star was one of the busiest, in this era, on TV, in films, and on tour.

The scene described ends the story. The body of the film describes the killer's methods of making his living.

A marrage lasting decades. The husband, and attorney, is staid, conservative, and strict. The wife always seems flighty. At the end of the movie, she is in her car, halfway out of the garage, and unable to start the car or to open the door. A note in the closing credits relates that she was finally rescued.

Ferguson, Lady Sarah -- Tracy Brabin in *Charles and Diana, Unhappily Ever After* (1992 TVM)

Correct re *Someone I Touched*, 'lana. This story is something of a curio, focusing on VD as it existed in the 1970s. The advent of the AIDS epidemic has made the conflict of that story rather tame. But, for it's time, a meaningful and informative story. It compares somewhat with 1951's *Detective Story*. Great tale in the aspect of a-day-in-the-life-of-a precinct, but all that hoopla over an abortion to which the woman consented? Would a majority of today's audience see what the fuss was about? allaboutlana's thread.

Correct at just past 210 Views. Welles as Cardinal Woolsey, and Hurt as Richard Rich. The source inerview is on the DVD of *The Oxford Murders.* Edythe's thread.
