...likely to have much personal investment in the people. Actually, Married Life doesn't suck. Its actors lend conviction to their roles, and the film looks classy, like a visit to my favorite Greenwich Village Deco furniture store (Adelaide, on West Tenth Street).

...Georgians, this is no laughing matter. The state doesn't really want those 150 sq. miles back (they were erroneously included in Tennessee by surveyors who were either drunk, afraid of Indians or using faulty equipment).
