Good evening, Kathy...((HUGS))

Hi Kathy ... I’ve a question. Does anyone here remember a movie from the 1980’s where the opening scene is a car race between these two cars to impress this girl and one kid gets killed. Then a jump twenty years later and the girl is now married and one night walks out of her house and the kid who was killed is leaning against a tree and lights up a cigarette. I saw this once when my dad played it one night. Any help would be appreciated.

[Kathy in Alaska]

I’m of no help at all on movies. Maybe someone will know.

And now I am off to get my hair cut...back later.

Cyber-kisses!

I LOVE it!

((((HUGS))))

[left that other site]

yes indeed!

And it also helps with the shedding.

[SkyDancer]

That’s okay. I found it. It’s called “Heavenly Kid” ....

[Kathy in Alaska]

Glad you found it...I haven’t heard of it.

Good job!!
