4.0 out of 5 stars TIGHTLY MADE AND INTERESTING FILM, January 13, 2005

This review is from: Schemes [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is a very well-made film marked by solid direction and acting. The script is linear, suspenseful and leisurely enough to permit character development. Although James McCaffrey seems rather wan as someone to be desired, performances by John Glover (excellent as usual) and Polly Draper more than make up for him. The scoring was effective and the blocking unobtrusive. Newport Beach was perfectly cast. The ending was more layered than is immediately obvious. Although this effort is underrated and largely forgotten, an opportunity to purchase it will be rewarding.

I dont no where you dug this up but it is a great movie. Obviosly the director, Mr Westervelt? studied hitchcock. For a one and only movie..unless somone knows of another by this director..it was awsome. Filmed in newport beach California

A real sleeper that appears to be a bigger budget movie then it is.
But is was shot by Vance Piper, who usually works on big budget movies.
A hidden jewel . . . !
