Monday, November 4, 2013 (1992) Whispers In The Dark ADULT MYSTERY THRILLER Great first hour but after the first so-called murder happen, it goes to ridiculous territory. Shrink Ann ( Annabella Sciorra) with only two patients start to get turned on with her female patient eve played by Deborah Unger verbal expression of sadomasicist or that she start to get consistent dreams about them. She expresses this issue with former colleague Doug played by Alan Alda. Anthony LaPaglia also stars as Homicide investigator cop Larry Morgenstern is a really big joke since he's taking liberties that is not proper police protocol. This movie is not even erotic as it's adult stuff is only verbally described with some hard to make out and dark re-enactments. Jill Clayburgh also stars as Leo's wife, and John Leguizamo plays one her dysfunctional patients as John. 1 star out of 4

Sciorra carries Whispers in the Dark with another of her portraits that blend vulnerability, spirit, intelligence and wiry strength.
