Good adaptation of O'Hara short story -- avoid the Dollar Store copy
14 February 2016
Warning: Spoilers
For some reason, someone took two Great Performances and merged them into one video. That stories are totally unrelated and it's confusing to watch. Trash bin that one.

Get a copy of the original Natica Jackson -- about 60 minutes long. Good to great performances from Michele Pfeifer (post Scarface but pre super stardom), Brian Kerwin (misspelled as Brain on the Dollar Store video but correctly spelled otherwise), Holland Taylor, and Hector Elizondo.

It's fairly faithful to the original short story written by John O'Hara. Which is surprising given the ending which predated Susan Smith by at least 30 years.

Worth watching despite not being able to locate a really good copy. The ones I've seen all seem to be copied from bad VHS tapes.
