Outstanding drama...

I'm not quite sure if this is the same movie the other reviewer saw. I reckon, this movie is one of Jaclyn Smith's best performances.

It's not a typical "Jaclyn Smith" melodrama. It's deep, and disturbing. It's actually a welcome change from Smith, who's become so popular as Sidney Sheldon or Danielle Steel's poster-girl-- sort of, for appearing in so many of their miniseries.

The movie itself is excellent in every angle particularly the last half hour. The "kitchen scene"is particularly excellent at the last part of the movie.

The production value is excellent and acting ensemble is absolutely five star in all aspects.
