I watched a movie in 1982 or sometime after that I can not find the named of. In the movie a father and his kids go to a factory to buy a grandma type robot. They picked out her eye color & hair color. She was then delivered by helicopter inside a box. She was to take care of the children & house & was able to pour milk & juice from her fingures. I watched it in 2cd grade but I'm not sure when it was made. I'd like to share it with my kids.

Thoughtful, caring, loving woman. Even if she is a robot.

I just want to let you know that I just asked about the same movie... I can't remember its name though... I remember the oj fingers too. It was just nice to know that I didn't dream the movie up... Sorry if I got your hopes up or anything but I just felt like we bonded...

The movie is called the Electric Grandmother. I was wondering the same thing & finally dug it up.
Enjoy

I didn't know if I dreamt it either. This is weird... I feel like there are only a handful of us the world and we just bonded. I've been thinking about that grandma movie for so long with no one to share it with.

It is a 60 minute movie - available in 5 parts on YouTube if you're interested! I have a strong memory of this movie, too, but have never met anyone else who remembered it. I will watch it again and see if it's as awesome as I remember!
