Paxton:
Maybe you were right Sergeant. Maybe when your head's too full of someone, you get hurt. Or other people do.
Tony:
Well I sure hope not Miss Andrews, 'cause like I said, you've been messing around in my head for the last eight months.

The acting was awful, but the plot was enough to keep you interested in sticking around for the full 4 hours. For a snowed-in Sunday, this is a good bet. My husband was even watching it! The film stayed true to the book, although some characters were not able to be fleshed out as much. The predictability of the movie continues until the last half-hour.
