Audience Member Very well played, produced, filmed. Excellent pacing and editing from a well thought out screenplay. This is just of an era of involving, serious, more down to earth film of the true or 'inspired-by-true' mould before what can be some more emotional, sometimes more sensationalist 1980s and 1990s versions. Ah, the sensible and serious yet not overly so 70s, how we ought to miss them. The characterisation is also excellent, within the familiar and fairly simple confines of a TV movie format. How things have changed, though. There's nothing flimsy or frivolous about this film, while neither does it go too much into more challenging territory. It signals to (rather than asks overtly) a few of the undying, basic necessary questions which never go away and which perhaps many of our more short-sighted, escapist, shallow or frightened age pretend have gone away or could never be there. Every scene is relevant and strangely for our modern mass media staled minds not too far from intense, still somehow within its own reasonably plain, everyday life format. These kinds of themes can feel excluding to some people, but I think the fine acting carries everything through, keeping interest easily. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member A sad story but Tuesday is dynamite as always. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
