This excellent segment of the series provided a plum role for Broadway star Roger Rees, just one example of how so many top talents found their way to the Dick Wolf series, not because of the paychecks but rather the challenging acting opportunities.
It was written by Walon Green, not a household name but a significant writer-producer. If he has a cult following it would be a cult of one: me. Two of my all-time favorite movies, dating to seeing each in first-run bookings, reflect his work: "The Hellstrom Chronicle" (a unique sci-fi/documentary feature) and Sam Peckinpah's yet to be equaled "The Wild Bunch" (scheduled to be remade by Mel Gibson).
In the story set in NY's fashion world, but about a male model rather than a Heidi Klum or Christie Brinkley. Rees plays a smug major developer, easy to hate in the footsteps of Robert Moses. He's instantly an arresting presence, yet underplays superbly, and his statuesque wife played as a masochist/sub Sarah Desage is quite impressive.
