      Audience Member As expected, this one is a little hokey like most 70s/80s TV programs were, but you can't help but cheer for Woodward in this one. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member A middle aged woman has her brand new steel belted radial tires slashed by a trio of "wetbacks" and then harasses the culprits in the slums of LA to make them pay her back. She is crazy but persistent. Loved the after school special style ending. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Struggling real estate broker relentlessly pursues three youths from East LA who slashed her tires. Strong performance by Joanne Woodward as the woman pushed to the limit. An underrated CBS tv movie of the week that incited backlash from lobby group Nosotros for its portrayal of Latinos.
