The Runner Stumbles: A Tribute to the 1979 Film Starring Dick Van Dyke & Kathleen Quinlan
In 1979, director Stanley Kramer ended his career with this absorbing drama, adapted from the play by Milan Stitt and based on a real-life event from 1927. Dick Van Dyke ("Mary Poppins"), stars as Father Rivard, an intellectual priest in a small, impoverished mining town in the state of Washington (called Roslyn, located about two hours drive southeast of Seattle, in Northern Kittitas County). A lonely man with low self-esteem, Rivard is depressed by the arduous and dreary lives of his flock, until the arrival of Sister Rita (Kathleen Quinlan of "The Promise"), a bright, spirited young nun who joins his parish to teach at its school. Rita appreciates Rivard on a level that few others in the community can, and soon the priest falls in love with her. But when Sister Rita is murdered, Rivard's infatuation is revealed and the love-struck priest is put on trial. Only Rivard's housekeeper, Mrs. Shandig (Maureen Stapleton of "The Queen of the Stardust Ballroom"), knows the truth about Sister Rita's death. Beau Bridges plays Rivard's lawyer who is not so sure that his client is guilty of the crime. Ray Bolger ("The Wizard of Oz") and Tammy Grimes ("Somebody Killed Her Husband") round out the all star cast. This ultra rare and highly controversial film (at the time of its release in 1979), has failed to ever see the light of day on DVD. I hope you enjoy this tribute.

This rarely seen Canadian film from 1981 actually had several titles "The Victory" and "This Time Forever" when released on Vhs in the early 90's. In theatres it was known as "Yesterday", "Gabrielle", and the totally misleading title "Scoring". No matter what the film is called, it manages to be a wonderfully romantic film set in Canada during the late 60's. A young med student Matt Kramer (Vin...

He was absolutely beautiful.
Denny Brooks …..Sublime 🍀🍀🙏😎✌️
Great movie
👍👍❤🙏
9th configuration as well william peter blotey
both different but equally good movies
Guess what the female actors had to do to get cast in this movie?
They have the same hairdo!
Love the movie ! Does anyone know how to find any tutorial to play it on piano? Music sheet or something?
This movie smells of paedophilia. Things sure were twisted in the 80s.
Incorrect assumption.
Might have won an Oscar if Brooks had stepped aside and hired, say, Robert Redford to play the lead role.
I loved this movie so much thank you for posting this!!!❤❤❤
When collides collide
I have never heard of this movie. The song, of course by Lionel Richie & Diana Ross. Had no idea the song was a theme song from a movie.
Moi j aime beaucoup le belle acteur il est asser beau
Oh my goodness. I have heard of this awesome movie but never seen it. I was crying at the end of this video. I so want to find the video, the acting is superb. Is there any way this can be purchased on DVD. 😢❤
Maybe she’s skiing in Heaven
What an honor it was for them to play in this movie, I was jealous of them
What a great actress Marilyn Hassett is. Timothy Bottoms was a great actor as well
Knots landing actor William Devane name comes up before Tommy Lee Jones in the film. That wouldn't happen now. But to be fair William Devane could have been a Hollywood A-lister star too like Tommy Lee Jones. William Devane if notice has a pit Jack Nicholson about him, but not as good as him. Anyway look William Devane is a good actor.
So beautiful and handsome
Rest In Peace R.I.P. Ryan O’Neal R.I.P. Farrah Fawcett
This is dreadful! The acting is really poor…. I’m glad they made the cutting edge years later it redeemed this similar story…..
Laughed my head off! What a farce!
Movie Shot Late November 1977 to Early February 1978 ❤
Hey.. still breathtakingly beautiful. Are ya kidding me? Today Brooke in her 50's... Is now the most stunning. What a history..

Very sad personal life for Joseph Brooks, ending in his suicide and a son convicted of murder. Soooo sad!
I like this..funny...never seen it before👍🏿😂
Farrah needed some rom-com in her career. She was great at comedy.
This was one of my favorite shows.
Agree with the sentiment, great show, no idea why cancelled. And now, RIP Ryan
That "cheering" in Atlanta was taped in September 1991 when the IOC awarded the 1996 Summer Olympic Games to Atlanta (ultimately rated as the most tacky/commercialized Olympics of all time).
Rest in Peace Farrah and Ryan..
I fell in love with Shelly Hack when I first saw this movie in about 1983.
I never get tired of watching this!!
Tom Cruise gave him a crazy idea that changed his life for worst. The story is so depressing.
