The Girl, The Gold Watch & Everything 1/10

I remember the theme from this. It was sung by Richie Havens (Here Comes The Sun, Freedom). He was starting to get a lot of commercial/tv projects and this was one of them.

Tv movie music was so bad in the 70's.

5:11 - Are we to assume that his uncle's dispensation specifically told him "And don't call me 'surly'?"

I remember catching this movie during a sunday matinee on tv as a little kid. It was probably after Kung Fu Theater or The Creature Double Feature when there was usually nothing on. For years, I thought I might have imagined it because nobody I mentioned it to had ever heard of it. I used to play Voyagers all the time and sometimes I'd pretend I had a watch like in this movie.

Thanks MorkandMindy! I will add it to my favorites!

[MorkandMindy333]

@Juraiprince Cool! Thanks for watching.

[Juraiprince]

Wow! Am I glad I came across this gem! I remember seeing this as a kid. Pam Dawber and Robert Hays were perfectly cast for this movie! I was in LOVE with her!

Thanks so much for posting this movie!

[MorkandMindy333]

@Juraiprince FYI- I have all her movies on my "Pam Dawber Movies" Playlist on my channel. if you're interested. Thanks for watching.

One of my favorite movies; just because I love the idea of stopping (or slowing) time.

San Diego back in the day.........good times.

I remember when this aired. This was back when they syndicated first run television movies to stations. The practice ended in the 90s with cable television becoming more accessable to households.

I remember when this aired it was cool

[JamesonBondy]

I think given the choice between getting the watch and getting the $200 million I'd take the watch. I didn't even have to think about it.

Thanks for posting this!!

[MorkandMindy333]

@JamesonBondy You're welcome. Thanks for watching.

[RebelMerc]

Thanks for adding this I would love to have the whole series

[MorkandMindy333]

@RebelMerc You're welcome. Thanks for watching. They did make one more movie--The Girl, The Gold Watch & Dynamite, but Pam Dawber and Robert Hays weren't in it. It picked up where this one left off. As far as I know, those were the only two that were made.

[RebelMerc]

@MorkandMindy333 for some reason I thought there was a single season of this show. I believe the woman from Faclon Crest was in it. But this was only 30 yrs ago I have slept since then. hahaha

[MorkandMindy333]

@RebelMerc After the movie was originally released, they broke it up into different parts and made it into a mini series shown over several weeks, but it was the same movie.

The legendary Maurice Evans as Leroy Wintermore (Dr. Zaius in Planet of the Apes) adds such class and distinction to this gem.

[MorkandMindy333]

@charitycase1950 No. I actually bought it from a site that sells TV movies. I have other ones on my channel if you're interested. They're in my Pam Dawber Movies Playlist. Thanks for watching. Take care.

[MorkandMindy333]

@charitycase1950 Good. I hope you enjoy it . Thanks for watching.
