Alicia I love this movie so much

Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

wwishes You know.. some people like movies for their plot, others for whatever similarities they find in them. But this one is great for it's last scene alone. The movie minus the last scene is alright, but it's the ending that paints a never-seen-before emotional picture that not many movies can show. That way I'd even compare it to a peace of art. Can't really describe it, but by watching it I feel more human. Not many movies can do that, not many. This movie is a slow trip, but in the end it might make you experience something, something indescribable, yet very human. If you want to be taught by this movie, and feel the experience, then you will - in a way that is completely new and..beautiful.

sandy I was just watching a Forensic Files marathon on Court TV. The episode was identical to the plot of this movie, right down to the incest secret and the affair-with-the-sister subplot. I don't recall any Based on a True Story disclaimer, but the case does have MOW written all over it. Apparently it chronicles the real homicide of Ruby Morris by her husband Earl, sentenced to 25 years to life for her murder. Just goes to show you, truth can be stranger than fiction, because I thought the Lifetime plot was contrived and a more than "a stretch" insofar as believability goes. I'm with the other posters who said the acting was bad. I didn't notice it with all of the players, though. It was really the lead character, the daughter, whose performance was bad.

fastpitch-1 This is a terrible film. Angie Dickenson is a class act and always does well, but she does not get many roles any more and she must have needed some money to do this film. By the way, she is on screen less than 10 minutes. Oooh, wait, there is one redeeming feature in this film: Meg Foster has a small part in this film. Now, Meg has been on the screen for 35 years and is not particularly great but she has the scariest eyes of any actress I have ever seen. By name, you probably don't know her, but one look at her eyes and you will recognize her. To summarize: the acting is horrid, the story bad, and even the filmography is dreadful. A screen going to black every time the director wants to change scenes is pretty moronic. Watch any thing else but this, even Mr Ed reruns!

whpratt1 Richard Crenna, "Body Heat" and Angie Dickinson "Dressed to Kill", gave a fantastic performance together as husband and wife. Whenever Angie appears in a film, you can count on a good performance and lots of action and drama. If it was not for these two actors appearing in this TV drama, the entire plot would fall on its face. The great sadness Richard Crenna was able to show the audience with his daughter and the great repect and love he had for her was great acting by a veteran actor who passed on to the higher stage in his life. Angie and Richard were a great fighting team as husband and wife. If you love these two actors, this is a classic TV show!
