Silent Cradle (1997)
7/10
Every Mother's Worst Fear!
18 December 1999
WWhen reporter Helen Greg(LORRAINE BRACCO)loses her baby in the delivery room her world is shattered in an instant. Depressed and looking for answers Helen buries herself in her work where while following up a lead on an adoption agency scam,she un-covers a truth that sends her spiralling out of control. Convinced that her baby is still alive,Helen becomes caught in a deadly race against-time,determined to to out manouvere a desperate and determined criminal! A descent straight-foward crime/drama though lack's additional character development that would've elevated this film above average and injected more empathy to the plot. All-round adequately directed/scripted, the lead acting performances are good by cast BRACCO,MARGOT KIDDER as Cop/friend to Bracco's character and bad-boy/villan's JASON GEDRICK and JOHN HEARD. This film was bought on video-tape as early christmas present for me by a friend,I liked it and recommend viewing to those that are fan's of the lead actors or of crime/genre stories!
