Cast


Recent assessments

'' TV Guide'' writes that "an intriguing premise suffers from some unbelievable plot twists and turns". According to moviereviewsandnews.com, the film is "lifted above the mundane by an earnest performance by Gordon Jackson and a decent supporting cast. It's a little too obvious and too reliant on coincidence, though, and the final scenes lack both credibility and emotional resonance."
