An Almost Forgotten Gem...
This was one of my all-time favorite TV movies. Maureen Stapleton gives a warm and heartbreaking performance as a widow who finds a new outlet life when she starts going out ballroom dancing and slowly drifts into an affair with a married mailman (Charles Durning). Stapleton shines in this charming TV production that won her an Emmy Award. One of my favorites which is always worth watching. It was later turned into a Broadway musical called BALLROOM starring the late Dorothy Loudon, but stick with the original...it's a winner.
