I waisted some time wandering around amongst *Sgts 3, 4 for Texas, The Kissing Bandit* and *Rough Night in Jericho.* Carol, you go ahead and take this; you've earned it.

With no research, I'm guessing...*Cape Fear* ?
And probably the 1960s version, thus Robert Mitchum ?

The actress / auto-biographer quoted -- She and her parents were deeply involved in the live theater community, with some film experience on occasion. In film, not the headline, "bankable" stars, but solid, respectable members of the profession. The family were also involved in training and coaching other actors.

"...I never ordered a Brandy in my life that wasn't Cordon Bleu. I took two hundred from shylocks, Pop, to see Sinatra at the Garden? Sat two seats away from Tony Bennett. That's success!"

The horse at the center of the story had to be sold because of economic need. Was undergoing training for the racing circuit when it escaped. Had various adventures trying to find the way back home.

I would have named that piece something like Fugue for Bluto and Toadies, but Mr. Altman didn't see it that way.

BRIT: Return
AMER: Round trip.
"Return to Oxford, please." (said to a railway ticket agent in London)
Verbatum from Gary Oldman in the 2011 remake of *Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy*
AMER would be, "A round-trip ticket to Oxford, please."

This one has me stumped. Any Ratpackers involved?

The police have good reason to try to discover why the detective was where he was when he died. At the dead man's house, they confront his hostile mother. In an Oscar-nominated performance she responds, "My Walter was as tough as a bar of iron, and he didn't get that from his father. Now, do you want to fight, Officer? Or do you want to get the hell out of my house?!"

Filling in the blanks in the opening quote.

Some working cowboys spot the runaway crossing the planes. They know bupkus from a reward, but they knew a good mount when they see one. They have him cornered, roped and down, ready for branding. The horse then kicks loose from the rope and makes his escape. Jumps from a high cliff into a deep river. They watch from above in admiration as he gets out of the stream and keeps on keeping on.

name the movie
