Having lived in Europe and New York most of her life, Rosemary has finally made the move to Holly- although she still plans to keep her apartment in New York.

She was going to rent an apartment in the Los Angeles area, but found it almost impossible to find one that would take a single woman with a dog.

That was even a problem, and had she not had a good deal of cash to put down she wouldn't have gotten the house either.

Surprisingly, the musical numbers adapt best to the film and bring some needed life to proceedings, ghly, circumstances surrounding the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

Tillie informs him that the honeymoon is over.

It's time to get married. Time passes quickly, a little too quickly for audience adjustment. They have a son and dwell in their rosy family unit in the suburbs. Old faithful Pete isn't so faithful and Tillie doesn't take the discovery lightlv. They're drawn together again by the ultimate misfortune -pending death of their son due to a blood malignancy.

It's a tragedy inters rsed with hilarious one-liners and including one of the funniest and a hartic fight scenes (between Page and Burnet) around. --SUSAX SHEFTEL "You'll Like My Mother" is a taut, psychological thriller picturing pregnant i nam widow Patty Duke spending her last few dollars to visit her mother-in-law, hoping to share the dead son's love and that of the new baby. Instead she finds only a faceless, unemotional machine. Mother Rosemary Murphy is anxious for her to leave immediately, hut an arctic storm snows in the Minnesota mansion, forcing Miss Duke to spend several nights there. The mansion is full of macabre family secrets that question the mother's hatred of Miss Duke for depriving her of the last few weeks of the son's life.

She finds living there a retarded, nearly speechless sister and a murdering, insane cousin being hunted by the police. The tension builds as the Teal horror of the secrets are laid bare, giving her real cause for alarm. The final scene is a gem of imagination and horror. The only physical violence of the movie occurs in the last 30 seconds. The viewer sits for a moment stunned, feeling the full i a ct of this single scene.
