*PracMag* also involves good writing and dialogue. Examples:
"What would you do?"
"What wouldn't I do? For the right guy."
"Well, he is kind of cute, in a Penal System sort of way."
Closing narration includes: "Put rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavender for luck, and fall in love whenever you can."

Mid-1990s film. A love spanning decades. A high-school romance, apposed by her mother and by his father. Separation, marriages for both, both ending in divorce. Met again in their maturity. All this riding on a murder mystery that was solved a generation after it happened.

If that's the name cujas was looking for, let Edy have the thread. She seems to know what she's talking about. I just passed along what I saw in a movie.

Per gossip, allegation, legend, rumor and innuendo -- and the scriptwriters who worked on the 2006 biopic *Hollywoodland*, that would be studio executive E.J. Mannix, whose wife, Toni Mannix, had made Mr. Reeves her boy-toy. That movie is filmed showing three different endings, covering the main theories about the death. It holds the suicide theory for last.

Final line:
"I keep telling you, Joey. If you gonna hang around with me, you gotta stop bein' an a*shole!"

This celebrity panelist was a longtime favorite, and a dependable comic wit. He occupied the "center square" in hopes that the procedures would focus on him often.

Let the answer offered lie there; finance can come and correct it if it's wrong. Meanwhile:
Actor with some film credits, more sitcom credits, many game show credits. On daytime Hollywood Squares, he had this exchange:
Emcee: "Why did President James K. Polk have an extra large bath tub installed in the White House?"
Player: "He had a huuuuge rubber duckie!"
...Who???

Cass Eliott billed as "Mama Cass" correct. I had actually wanted to work that onto the thread about naming the song. but there was no chance to do that.
At a little over 125 Views, skipper's thread.

Work for the cowboy is phasing out. One man marries a widow, ends up helping her run the hardware store she inherited. A step down, in the view of many of these men.

Does this involve a Mother & Daughter con game team?

I actually wanted to post this one in the thread about 'name this song', but I can't tell if that one is open. Anyway:
♫ The good times are comin'
They're comin' real soon...
And I'm not just throwin' pennies
At the moon...♪
Movie title? Vocalist?

Something seems familiar here. Is Woody Allen involved?

Again, no Views count, but a week without reaction.
3 Jan 1969 -- *Male of the Species*
Anna Calder-Marshall as the young woman. Sean Connery as her father. Michael Caine as her workmate. Paul Schofield as her manipulative boss. Sir Laurence Olivier was the announcer.
The bottom of the page of the IMDb site for Anna Calder-Marshall has a trailer vidio for the *Male of the Species* TVM, making use of all the famous faces.
Open thread.

The actress, age 24 at the time of this Emmy-winning performance, has one of those hyphenated names. She has worked steadily since that time, mostly in England; shows up in a number of those Brit mysteries that Americans can catch on A&E or BBC America. She has a son, born in 1981, also a steadily-employed in films and Brit TV. A few years after this miniseries performance, she again worked with the knighted actor mentioned earlier, playing Cordelia to his Lear.
After her series of bad experiences with men, the young women again crosses paths with her Cockney workmate. He responds to her sniping by pointing out, "The people running around trying to hurt others are the ones who are full of hurt themselves." The story closes with a note of hope for her.
Title? Name(s)?

He's shouting outside her door, screaming threats. waking the neighborhood. Breaks a window and reaches in; she stabs his hand.

Clues came slowly, over decades. They were a long time figuring it out. Her mother was fairly tolerant socially, but she forbade her the company only of that boy. His father, in like manner named only that girl as one he should not socialize with. Only years later did they put the facts together to conclude that their parents had an affair, and that they had the same father. Mexican lass, Gringo lad.
They put this together with other facts. They had never known this in the past, and it did not feel like incest. Complications in her last pregnancy had left her unable to have more children, so there was no reason fear on that score. No one else knew, no one was left alive who cared. And they still cared deeply for each other. They decided to continue as lovers who had rediscovered each other.
The story had started with the discovery in the desert of a skeleton, and a damaged badge nearby. The age of the remains put the death some 40 years in the past. These subplot points came as bytheway facts in the investigation that ensued.
