Enthralling!, 27 September 2001
8/10
Author: John M. Oyerbides from Virginia, USA

I kind of just came accross it on HBO while channel surfing. I ended up not being able to leave my seat. I actually debated - go to the bathroom and miss a few minutes of the movie or hold it. Guess what, I held. Great acting, an emotional portrayal.
