5.0 out of 5 stars "Nothing Mrs. Wharton", September 7, 2005

This review is from: Improper Channels [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Architect Jeffrey Martley (Alan Arkin), has a small bumpy accident that also affected his daughter Nancy (Sarah Stevens.) So to be on the safe side he takes her to the emergency room. They are unnaturally suspicious and quick to over react; they immediately place the daughter in protective service. Now he must explain this to his wife Diana (Mariette Hartley.) He is separated so things are getting complicated. She can not even get the child back. Now the parents must get back together and form a plan to retrieve their daughter form an overbearing self-promotion case worker Gloria Washburn (Monica Parker.)

Many comic parts that include an escape attempt by the child and her friend from the holding location and Mrs. Wharton (Ruth Springford.) Many teeth gritting moments where you just want to slap Gloria Washburn. Problems compound.

How will it all end?
