Man ha controlling wife. After she dies he stays in bed for months. His dog go for groceries et al.

Does anyone know the name and how to find/view it?

Thanks in advance. H

That would be the 1968 French flick Alexandre le Bienheureux.

Yes... thank you, thank you, thank you!

I am impressed... how did you know/find out?

I actually had a vague memory of it. But that didn't help me. I just managed to configure a Google inquiry that led me in the right direction.

Thanks again! Did you use some specialized search criteria? Could you give me a tip on how to be a better "searcher?" Thanks, H

Heh. I just tried to reconstruct my set of search terms, and failed miserably. I believe I used "movie", "wife", "dies", "dog", and "stays in bed", and had to filter out hits for the TV series Monk. Since I remembered this was a foreign movie, once I had my search terms tightened up and I saw a result pertaining to a late French actor, I was able to zero in.
