Crack Mystery Thriller
A phobic female mystery writer (Candice Bergen) arrives home late one night to find her dog missing and an intruder in her house. The intruder says he's a fan and met no harm. But then a cop appears, invites himself inside and chases the kid off. But soon the writer begins to suspect the cop may not in fact be a cop, may be a hit man instead, and the plot begins to thicken.
This story is written as a play, so there are few characters, a lot of dialogue and more than a measure of surprises and intrigue. Candice Bergen provides a sterling performance as does Bryan Brown. I'll watch this movie again.
Magnificent Thriller
I love this movie because of its twists and turns, not to mention a terrific cast headed up by the matchless Candice Bergen.
The Very Worst Movie Ever!
I must absolutely agree with the one other reviewer here, so far, who also gave this one star.....this "movie" WAS a TV production, and even in that genre, one of the worst examples I have ever seen. What was evident from the outset was the combination of terribly orchestrated histrionics from the lead "star", Bergen, the nevertheless largely wooden presentation, and the unbelieveably predictable, telegraphed plot line, and presentation. My wife and I turned it off after 10 minutes. Cannot believe Amazon charged $4.32 for this, when Amazon otherwise so often presents real bargins on this site, including the free passes for those of us on Prime.
