Very Capable Performances by Principals & Supporting Actors Working From An Intelligent Script
14 March 2023
A film that delivered very capable performances all around. Myrna Fahey, in particular, was very believable as a plucky murder suspect. I liked the filming on locations and the close-ups of the principals in unusual poses. Observe in particular, the interview by the police Lt. Of the primary suspect and her responses to the questions put to her. Mason is in the scene and seems quite impressed with her resilience. I was impressed by this scene and how it was filmed. The script was intelligent and drew the viewer into the suspense. The courtroom scenes had fine performances, as usual. By the principals with Burger and Perry making good digs at one another with some humor. The usual surprise ending. If you guessed right, you were just lucky!
