Decent lifetime movie, 13 July 2004

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

For the most part this movie is what you would expect for a lifetime movie. I thought Dana Delaney's acting was OK, but I did not care for the actor who played the husband.

The story tugs at your heart. A couple desperately want to adopt a baby after failed attempts to have their own. They receive a lead through a lawyer to adopt a Hungarian baby. At first everything seems fine, but then the man ups their price to 100,000, then 150,000 and so on. There are also other couples involved. The movie at this point turns into a "lets get the bad guy" except there was no felony law at that time for baby selling. Alright movie about a very real crime happening everyday.

***********Possible spoiler******************

I do not think that the ending could happen in real life. Too many people wanting that baby for it to be that easy.
