An 
company.
Jaclyn Smith may not be the Cate Blanchet of her generation but definitely talented as compared to most of her contemporary.
This is also one of the best TV movie drama in the 80's. Sad to say, Hollywood don't make this kind of movies anymore.
Excellent performances from the entire cast. Jaclyn Smith is acting here with sincerity. You can't avoid watching her face ( beautiful in every angle) gracefully on the screen, but she's shown emotions over and above expectation.
Smith is not the "ïndie film star" of sort --a.k.a critics ravers. But if you want to sit down and enjoy a two to three hour TV production in the comfy of your own home then this one excellent production is for you.
Highly recommended....
