    • Goofs
      When Sarah seems to catch Miss Thetford off guard, who is in Austin's study making a telephone call, Miss Thetford explains that she was making a long-distance call to her sister who lives in Grand Rapids. She explains this to Sarah as if the two had just met. Later, while Austin's reviewing the charges on their telephone bill, he asks Sarah who lives in Grand Rapids. She acts as though she has no idea. If she had known Miss Thetford her entire life, she must know where her immediate relatives reside.

    Agree With Michael Woods Comments!
    I enjoyed this movie! I didn't know what to expect. Morgan Fairchild & Sela Ward are always excellent. Polly Bergen is just so very talented. Such wonderful acting! The actors were all well cast. Watching Michael Woods was definitely swoon inducing! He has been in many films with major leading ladies: Diane Lane, Sharon Stone, Jane Seymour, Jaclyn Smith... just to name a few! I believe he has starred in another movie with Morgan Fairchild before. I also remember seeing him on Oprah when he starred on Private Eye with Josh Brolin. A very handsome & talented actor, indeed. I think I should go refresh myself and watch a few more of his films.
