Entertaining piece of work

Warning: Spoilers
While certainly no Hitchcock masterpiece, this movie is nevertheless an entertaining way to pass some time. The film's cast is solid, from Miranda Bailey as Dina, to the always fantastic Jeffrey Donovan as the suspicious Paul. The premise is relatively simple- a desperate vagrant couple looks to make some quick cash by unloading Dina's baby on a childless rich couple. However, the artistic device used to convey the story is the repeated flashback while Dina reveals the story to a stranger. I personally did not know what to make of her opening up to the stranger like that, but other posts on here seem to have a better grasp on that, so read those if you want a tiny spoiler. Otherwise, the story is your run of the mill thriller. It'll keep you shocked, and even in suspense. One thing that bothered me was the darkness during the film's end points. Was hard to see what was going on! However, you make it out, and the action that unfolds is enjoyable to watch.
