7/10
Husband a wimp, wife was good

An above average TV movie for afternoon viewing. I had seen it before. I've probably seen most afternoon movies before. As long as sufficient time passes since the last viewing, I can watch it again. This movie took a while for me to remember it, but as soon as I saw the rather ugly house on the island I did remember. Then pretty much everything fell into place. This time it was more about how the characters interacted, since I kept remembering what was about to happen next, kinda. Still some misremembered surprises, though. The ending was a bit weird, however. Did I understand correctly that Kevin had had an affair with the girl who ran through the woods in a white robe? Kevin was such an irritating guy, the way he kept asking her how she felt over and over. And apologising. Was that his guilty conscience speaking? And at the very end, the captain's boat was putted up at the jetty while the captain loaded suitcases into the hold. Along comes Kevin, limping. Looking sorry for himself. But it wasn't clear whether they were both leaving, or only her, off on her new wish for a vacation, or indeed Kevin alone after his wife had dumped him for sleeping around? I hope it was the latter. Anyway, the movie was better that most, so I'll give it 7, not least because I thought the girl who played Carly was an attractive character.
