40th Anniversary Screening of 'You'll Like My Mother'


A 40th anniversary screening of You'll Like My Mother, filmed in 1972 at Duluth's Glensheen mansion is scheduled for Saturday, November 3 at 1 pm at the downtown Duluth Public Library Green Room. The public is welcome to this free program.

I'll be there that afternoon prior to the screening to share some of my memories of the filming and the Duluth premiere and party.

Stars of the 93 minute movie are Patty Duke, Rosemary Murphy, Richard Thomas, Sian Barbara Allen and Dennis Rucker.

Join the fun!



Francesca Kinsolving (Patty Duke), a very pregnant California girl, ventures northward to Minnesota to introduce herself to her late husband’s mother. Throughout their brief marriage Francesca’s husband had promised his young wife, “You’ll like my mother.” Expecting a welcome reception from Mrs. Kinsolving, Francesca instead finds a house of horrors that nearly sets maternity as far back as Rosemary’s Baby.
