Someone posted about this on Facebook and it's killing me because Google isn't giving me anything to go by. Film set in the 40's-50's-60's, most likely across them due to other recollections. There's a family with 4 male children. The wife dies, and the father has to try on his own to cope with the family, but a court-appointed nanny takes the kids. He tries to fulfill what the court asked of him so that he can get his kids back, 10 years later. The oldest son is in an insane asylum, the middle two are in a special needs institution, and the youngest is in an orphanage. He starts to get the kids, but the big problem is with getting the oldest son. Google gives me results such as Four Sons and On Our Own, but I'm getting no promising leads.

I have no idea if this was a full film or what, but I remember seeing a single scene once, years ago. Most likely wasn't actual porn, despite the description. Man, dressed in classic noir clothes (long coat, fedora/trilby) walks into a seedy bar, probably full of people? A woman, either naked, or wearing only suspenders, squats on his hat, he's possibly asking her a question, and then she gets told off by another woman who tells her something along the lines of "how many times have I told you not to piss on the customers" as the guy walks further into the bar. I'm not sure if it actually existed or if it's some kind of fever dream.

This is from a discussion with an acquaintance, to the point where it may be a figment of imagination but he only remembers one scene from the film, the last one. Protagonist (male), and a girl are in an open-top car driving on a rural road (possibly a dirt road?). As he's driving, they're kissing, and not paying attention to the road, so a pickup truck comes from the other direction. The driver makes a swerve to avoid it, and the girl is thrown from the car and killed instantly. He said it's the end of the movie, and has nothing to do with the rest of it, it just ends like this to prevent a happy ending. Are there any clues? It's possibly from before the 90s, but that's all we have at the moment EDIT: VV He says it ain't it. Film looks interesting though, worst case I've learned about a neat looking film Serperoth fucked around with this message at 18:27 on Nov 27, 2021 |

regulargonzalez posted:This description has a strong Gregg Araki vibe to it but I'm not familiar enough with his oeuvre to say definitively if it's his. I was going to post this for him, along with another bit that he remembered, but someone else figured it out, it was The Postman Always Rings Twice (1981) Thanks for chipping in folks, I appreciate it
