bad acting and writing, 21 January 2007
Author: guilfisher-1 from New York City

This 2001 made for TV film showed on LMN, naturally, as it seems all movies that are doomed end up on that channel. Seeing the likes of Don Murray, whom I like and respect his body of work, stoop to doing this trite was very sad. As also Ed Asner. Olivia Hussey was terrible in this and I wonder if she ever was a good actress. I couldn't stand her running around denying everything and then saying she was scared. Many times help was offered to her and she reneged. And that hair of hers. Haning straight down and too long made her look like a vampire. It was definitely not attractive. In fact most of the film she looked dowdy.

William Riead wrote and directed this loser. Anthony Denison plays the lover with the emotion on a one level. You don't believe he really had any interest in her. And her looks wouldn't encourage anyone to want to have an affair with her. Totally unbelievable performances and wasted film with Asner and Murray not getting what they deserve as actors.
