PAGE " - WAYERLOO MONOCLE. WEDNESDAY. Coral Andrews Chronicle Special The institution of movie and television princess Mary Tyler Moore is no longer sacred. Mary Tyler Moore isn't always so whole- some. She proved that in Ordinary People, and she proves it again in Just Between Friends, now moved to Cineplex from the Odeon Hy- land. Just Between Friends could easily be a made-for-the-smaller-screen movie. It stars Mary Tyler Moore as Holly Davis, a picture- perfect housewife, with picture-perfect chil- dren in a picture-perfect household, but Holly has hardly a picture-perfect husband. The workaholic Geologist measures earthquakes, but he has no idea the dimensions of the personal tremor he's about to create. Chip Davis (Ted DansorrCheers) decides to have an affair to save the absolute calm of his predictable marriage. He chooses an off-the- wall on-the-air fully liberated aspiring anchor- woman Sandy Dunlap played by Christine Lahti (best supporting actress nominee for Swing Shift). But as fate would have it and this rather schmaltzy movie script, Sandy and Holly become friends, when they meet in aerobics class (where else?)

ENDS APRIL 19, 1986 16. own chats, neither lady dreams that her dreamboat is actually the same guy, What a first-class jerk!! - - - 'With every little movement and glance both ladies show it', how much they love the same guy. Little do they know they'll soon have to 'make it on their own'. In a prime-time soap plotline, Chip Davis is suddenly and maybe conveniently killed in a car accident, which leaves lady Sandy with a nine-month labor clause, option to sell in the bargain. How on earth is she going to tell her best friend she is pregnant with Holly's late husband's child? Now Sandy is no Rhoda Morgenstern, but she's not exactly the tactless Phyliss Lind- strom either. Dynasty, eat your heart out. Though the storyline is real sudser, Lahti and Tyler Moore handle it reasonably well, lively and appealing in their roles but only to a point as this film lacks any real punch. Danson is minimal but credible, and Sam Waterston (Killing Fields) as lovable Harry the best friend, is virtually washed out in a bland script. Like Terms of Endearment, Just Between Friends written and directed by Allan Burns is a heavy-duty tear-jerker, dealing with human weakness, understanding, and faith in the bond of friendship. mark? gig] Work _Ml$lillll, wcorhowc tii1lll0 WATERLOO TOWN SQUARE THE WORST BOOT TRADE-IN A FREE PAIR OF BOOTS will be giyen to anti-no
