Question
I am trying to remember the name of a movie I watched several times with my mother as a child.  The plot was about an elderly couple that had lived their whole lives together and made the decision to die together.  The movie was probably out in the 80's.  My mother remembers that the elderly woman used to collect porclein dolls.  I also remember that the couple tried to lock themselves in the garage with the car running.  Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you very much

Answer
Hi Jenn,

  The movie you mentioned sounds like the 1983 movie called " Right of way" with Jimmy Stewart and Betty Davis. Below is the link and the plot summary of that movie from IMDB.com, please let me know if this is the movie you remember.
