“OK, this TV series – was the woman the star of it?”
She’s slightly more the star of the show than her 3 co-stars.
“Is she middle aged or older (say, 40+)?”
Closer to 40- (very close in fact)
“The movie – is the location in which it takes place important?”
Not really.
“An I think I’m ready for a tiny hint.”
Ronald Reagan is mentioned in it (his mention gets a surprised response)
I have two more good clues if you want them.
M4.
Does it involve a plane full of convicts which is taken over by them and it lands and one of them, a mass murderer, has a tea party with a little girl, and the plane takes off with a cadilac attached by a rope?
