Mother, Jugs, and Speed, 1972 IIRC.

The only scene I remember is a woman dying in childbirth.

But it starred It stars Bill Cosby, Raquel Welch, Harvey Keitel, and Larry Hagman.

What a combo.

Just watched her last weekend in “One Million Years BC” - also saw it in the theaters early 60’s - Raquel Welch was my first crush.

As recently as 2017 she was in a sitcom called “Date My Dad,” and she still looked smashing.

Yes, she was “Jugs”. Cosby was “Mother”.

In that industry you have to be “difficult” or else you will be abused, so I don’t blame Raquel one bit for being “difficult”.

Saw her on stage with Paul Williams in Vegas in 78.

Neither had much of a stage personality!

An added bonus from Wikipedia:

In 2014, during an appearance on The O'Reilly Factor, Welch described herself as being on the conservative side, attributing it to her mother's midwestern values.[80] During the Vietnam War, Welch showed her support for the troops at United Service Organizations (USO) shows.>/i?
