If you haven't seen it already, avail yourself of the opportunity to see "The Perfect Assistant" on Lifetime. This movie combines an excellent cast with a taut and fast-paced script. Josie Davis is sparkling in this movie, and Rachel Hunter gives a solid performance. And Chris Potter's tender, nuanced performance as David Wescott may well garner an Emmy. Potter has established himself as one of the premier leading men in Lifetime TV movies. With this film, director Douglas Jackson has established himself as a leader in made-for-TV suspense. Under his able direction, the actors turn in brilliant performances and Christine Conradt's script translates beautifully onto the screen. And the climax is the most thrilling ten minutes in made-for-TV cinema. I can say confidently that this is the best Lifetime movie I've seen in years. Don't miss this one!
