NOTES A hasty retelling of 10 years in the life of Betty Ford wife of ex-President Gerald Ford.

Besides the addiction to pills and alcohol which led to the

establishment of the Betty Ford Clinic she had breast cancer

leading to a mastectomy, and arthritis.

Apparently the film concentrates on her alcoholism.
