- Citas
Cory: [Cathy looks at painting of an action scene] Where's the sun? It's still night?
Cathy: [runs over, softly speaking and grabbing his shoulders] Cory, don't!
[she turns him around and they are away just in time for Grandmother to come in with the basket of food]
Grandmother: [resigning] Your food.
[children run]
Grandmother: Uh, uh, uh! Get your hands off that. That food has to last you the entire day.
[they run back to Cathy and Carrie hugs Cathy]
Grandmother: I can't be running up and down the stairs! The servants might get suspicious. There'll be eggs for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch, and chicken for dinner. And I want you to eat all of it. Don't waste one bite of it, you understand? And if you're very good, I may bring you some fruit.
[Christopher comes behind Cory and puts his hands on his brother's shoulders as Cathy is now doing with Carrie]
Christopher: [sincere, serious] Thank you.
Grandmother: I've written out a list of other rules. First of all, you'll keep this room neat and tidy. As if nobody lived here.
[Cathy nods]
Grandmother: No running around or yelling or crying.
Christopher: They're good kids, but they need somewhere to play and make noise.
Grandmother: [walks away] Ah. Over here, there's a... stairway. Leads up to the attic.
[opens the door and shows the stairway]
Cathy: [Bewildered next to a only slightly bemused Christopher] You want us to play in an attic?
Grandmother: [Walks away] Up there, there will be ample room. And, the last Friday of every month, you're to clean out all of your things and hide up there while the maids are cleaning this room.
[Christopher nods]
Grandmother: No one must ever see or hear of you. Do you understand?
[looks to Cathy and Christopher sternly and all nod]
Grandmother: Good, good, 'cause if your grandfather ever discovered that you're here, you'd all be thrown out without a red cent. But not before getting punished for even being alive.
[she walks away and Christopher readjusts his arms around Cory]

Ending with awkward abruptness, this is the first in a series of "Lifetime" TV movies based on Virginia C. Andrews' popular stories. A previous feature film cut subplots involving incest from the story, but this version includes the incestuous feelings. The "taboo" subject was an important part of the original novel, but it doesn't translate well. When we first see two of the characters in question, they have clearly experienced the "body changing" developments latter referred to in the script. They talk about school and appear at a well-attended party (unlike the novel). Since sexual interest has begun, their attraction is more difficult to accept. In most school settings, the top physical condition of these two would not go unnoticed by most classmates...
Attractively proportioned co-stars Kiernan Shipka (as Cathy) and Mason Dye (as Christopher) handle the leading roles better than expected. Still, when he gives her a cool "punk" hairstyle, we wonder who cuts and shaves Mr. Dye's always neatly trimmed hair. The young stars and director Deborah Chow excel in reaction shots. In the supporting roles, Ms. Graham and Ms. Burstyn are engaging. Graham's character is cast to the wind, unfortunately; to really impress, she needed a couple more scenes. Possibly at her own insistence, Burstyn's character is more fully realized; this actress brings something extra to the role and is more intuitive about the medium. The six producers had to be happy with art/set direction and Miroslaw Baszak's photography.
