I very seldom go to theater movies, Fran, for the obvious reason
that I can't understand their audio.  But I was so interested in
COALG that I made an exception in that case.

I didn't notice any "Lassie-type" thing, but since the sound track
was lost on me I could have missed it.  I really was not able to
follow the story line all that well in the theater.  But then later,
when it was released on videotape, closed captioned, I watched it
again.  Several times in fact.  I still did not notice any condensation
in the dialog as captioned, but maybe I'm not as sensitive as others.
I thought it was a great movie, and that Marlee richly deserved her
Oscar for it.

... Jack.
