I hope this film comes out on DVD or at least VHS! It was completely enjoyable and entertaining. Karen Valentine's performance was brilliant and driven ... truly top-notch. It was the first film I saw with Elizabeth Ashley, and I was fascinated by her performance as well. Excellent casting, a wonderful script and great direction.
This is feature-film quality. I didn't realize it was made-for-TV. I thought the story was quite fresh and original for the time it was produced. All the performances were spirited and riveting. It's been 20 years, and there are still scenes and pieces of dialogue vividly emblazoned in my memory! It is a remarkable film, and I'd give anything to see it again!
