Best Wishes Mason Chadwick (1995)
A dark sexy movie, rescued by Laura Harris
Although essentially a dark little movie that plods along at a rate slightly slower than it COULD be, Laura Harris rescues this movie from a slow and agonizing death.
Set in an ocean front cabin, the meat of this movie happens when all other characters are stripped away, and our two leads are left to their devices. The subtly seductive May (Laura Harris) gives a voyeuristic peek at her intentions, a little at a time, as a writers block afflicted Mason Chadwick (Taylor Nichols)slowly falls victim to his own ambitions. The introduction of two police officers is an attempt at some comedic relief, however they are cast so young, I was left wondering if these officers was part of a larger prank... are the REAL officers going to arrive and tell their stoner kids to stop wearing those uniforms, and go home??
Slightly comedic at times, harrowing at others, and generally slow; I found myself anticipating every scene, in the hopes that Ms. Harris would return and justify my spending two hours with this movie.
I WOULD qualify this as a little gem, appropriate for waking up on the couch, and finding it on at 3 in the morning.
