...with his daughter's governess, played by Lana Morris. Margaret Tyzack, as Jolyon's cousin Winifred, marries a ne'er dowell. And then there's Soames, Winifred's brother, who looks like a cross between Abraham Lincoln and a character from Dark Shadows. Soames, done to a turn by Eric Porter, is a dour sort, with never a thought of sex in his legal mind. Ah, but tune in the next week, when Soames meets Irene, portrayed by Nyree Dawn Porter...
Curiously, yet another ABC première last week, Movie of the Week, led off with a plane crash. In this one, seven blind people survived, only to be done in by the tricky, pseudopsychological script. That disaster may or may not have been a harbinger of ABC's remaining 24 movies of the week, since they will come from many different producers.

"It's been over three weeks and she's still untouched by human hands," Dwyer complains before righting the situation during a drunken brawl. Ginger, shaken up just a bit at first, finally recovers and marries Jill...
...tactics of nonviolence. Her portrait of Dr. King is not drawn with an especially clear or unbiased eye; wifely loyalty often robs him of the humanity of having faults. Dispassionate reportage is not her real purpose. Rather, she has undertaken to bear witness to his life, and she has done so with great warmth and skill...
