A Will and a Way (1986)
Pandora is a jewelry artist who loved her eccentric Uncle Jolley up in the Catskills, but his last wishes are that she spend six months in his huge house with distant cousin Michael, before the two of them can inherit his millions. Michael writes TV scripts, so both can work from the Catskill house, but neither is thrilled with the idea, as they don't get along. Of course there are the outraged relatives who were left things that Jolley hoped would move them out of their entrenched life styles. Of course Pandora and Michael do move in, enjoy Jolley's house and learn to enjoy each other, as the relatives connive to get them to break the agreement. I love the Catskills, as I spent a lot of summers there as a kid and have been returning for a week every summer for the last ten or so years.
Local Hero (1987)
Hester moves into a Manhattan apartment with her son Radley and starts a new job at a bank. She has difficulty finding a sitter, and when the neighbor Mitch offers to help watch him, she is thankful, but has a hard time understanding that he writes comic books - which Radley things is the greatest thing. Mitch falls in love with both of them and finally wins over Hester, who is reluctant to love again after a painful experience with her ex-husband.
