COINCIDENCE! I just watched this movie two days ago after buying it on DVD. You are referring to none other than the amazing, hilarious: Fun With Dick and Jane This comedy classic (released in 1977) starred George Segal and Jane Fonda as Dick and Jane Harper, an upper middle class couple that experiences a reversal of fortune as Dick loses his job as an aerospace executive and they are forced to resort to some pretty drastic measures in order to stay afloat.

This original blows away the remake starring Jim Carrey and Tea Leoni. Watch for Ed McMahon in his best role ever!

This movie was released in 1977 and called "Fun with Dick and Jane" It starred George Segal and Jane Fonda as a very wealthy couple. Ed McMahon played the husband's boss. The husband, Dick is laid off and they have no savings and are heavily in debt.In one scene (the one to which you refer), landscapers come to take back the installed sod (i.e.

It is being repossessed). In order to try to save face with the neighbors, Jane, the wife, comes out and starts yelling "that's right. This is not at all what we ordered.

Take every bit of it back", or something to that effect. The two soon take to a life of crime which is portrayed comically as a social satire - e.g. When they rob the telephone company, other customers cheer. There is another bit where they rob a church offering where the pastor has been preaching "Remember, the cross is a plus sign".

In the end, they rip off the company that laid off Dick, and, if I remember correctly, he becomes head of the company as well. Anyway, they don't get caught for any of their robberies and everything works out for them. FYI: A remake was released on 12/21/2005 starring Tea Leoni and Jim Carrey, with Alec Baldwin as the character Dick's boss.

Fun with Dick & Jane Starred George Segal and Jane Fonda. Living the high life good jobs, built new home, having swimming pool installed new landscaping. He worked for a defense contractor I believe.

Lost his job. Attempted to rob a liquor store. Ended up buying condoms.

Yes they did come out and rolled up the lawn and took all the bushes, shrubs, etc. Stole enough money to get back into the high life. Got invited to his past employers company party. I believe Ed McMahon was the CEO of the company.

I won't tell you anymore don't want to ruin the fun for you watching it. Made a remake of it back in 2005-06. Starred Jim Carrey & Tea Leoni.

Funny also but I liked the first one better. Sources: Google a bit .

This movie is about a family who movies into a house in texas and then six people are murdered in the house.

Whats the depth I should use to till lawn for new grass ti grow.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
