I seem to remember a short scene in Altman's Three Women with someone 

(Shelley 

Duvall?) being shocked to discover Sissy Spacek's aged parents making 

love.



You remember the scene correctly. Spacek's parents were played by film 

director John Cromwell and his real life wife, actress Ruth Nelson. On the 

commentary on the Criterion DVD, Altman said he included the scene because 

he thought no one had ever thought much about the sex lives of older 

people.
