Replacing my original submission (#5 – _Bicentennial Man_) with another Robin Williams film that fits the category even better… The new #5 – **The Big White** – also starred Holly Hunter, Woody Harrelson, and Giovanni Ribisi. It got a very limited theatrical release, and went pretty much direct-to-video … I know, because the video company I worked with at that time (Echo Bridge Home Entertainment) had the release rights. _ **-“BB”-** _ ---

A fish out of water story? A May-December love story? A clash of the generations story? Who knows, but all descriptions fit. Regardless, I’ve loved this movie since it came out, and wish I had it on DVD. Best I can do is to wait until it comes around again on TCM. Oh, and pass. ---
