A greedy widow spins one web too many
Mar 7 2004
Format:DVD
This fine thriller could have been much better if the currents between Alexandra [Debra Winger] and Catharine [Theresa Russell] were explored and developed by the film-makers instead of letting the moment pass. The electricity between the hunted and the huntress is obvious after Alexandra finally catches up with black widow Catharine and from their first shared moments it seems as though Alexandra is spellbound by the woman she has set out to capture. Although Alexandra spends most of the film chasing after Catharine, she has a deer-in-the-headlights look when they spend time alone, whether in a hotel room, on a beach, or at a party, because she isn't as sure of herself as she was before she finally tracks down her dangerous prey. Catharine's seductive, flinty green eyes and sidelong glances at Alexandra suggest that this beautiful but ruthless killer is spinning her web to snare her pursuer before she can solve the mysterious deaths of her late husbands.
Dramatic Thriller
Jan 2 2004
Format:DVD
Debra Winger plays a detective who is on the trail of a psychopathic woman. She quickly meets, "falls in love" and then marries her man, but soon kills him before moving onto the next man repeating the process all over again. When the detective finally locates her in Hawaii, she meets her and the two become friends. As she investigates the woman's web of lies and murder, the woman becomes suspicious of her. When she finally discovers that her friend is a detective, it becomes a deadly rollercoaster ride as she repeatedly tries to kill her. Some of the best scenes were... poisoning the wine scene, the scuba-diving scene, the scalding shower scene, and the end scene.
