Domestication

James Garner is the police chief of a small town. A woman turns up dead, and it's accepted that her own dog, a doberman, killed her. As he investigates the matter, however, new facts come into focus that exonerate the animal..... and makes his own loneliness apparent to him.

It's a pleasant little romance with Garner in modern dress, looking a little seedy as he and Katherine Ross fall in love with each other. It's a very minor effort, but it's eked out nicely with many small roles taken by familiar faces: Hal Holbrook, Harry Guardino, JUne Allyson, Peter Lawford, Edmond O'Brien, Ann Rutherford..... is this where old MGM stars retire to?

Wissenswertes
Peter Lawford, June Allyson, and Ann Rutherford were all veterans who had spent the better part of their careers at M-G-M. Allyson and Lawford had co-starred together in two films, Good News (1947) and Kleine tapfere Jo (1949), while also appearing separately in Girl Crazy (1943). This film served as a reunion of sorts, giving them an opportunity to be in the last film shot on the fabled studio backlot before the land was sold.

Patzer
When he starts chasing Watkins, Abel is driving a 1967 Chevrolet. When he runs Watkins off the road in the field above the ocean at the conclusion of the same chase, Abel is driving a 1966 Chevrolet.

Zitate
Kate Bingham: Can you imagine coming home, and your wife says she's leaving you for someone else, and you say, "Who, Phil?" and she says, "No. Phyllis."
Abel Marsh: Well, that's the ultimate put-down... to those of us who are normal heterosexuals.
