OK, so it's no Vertigo, but I enjoyed this homage to the Hitchcock genre.
Multiple references to Hitchcock's work. Some are obvious (a blonde, a suspenseful auction) some enjoyably less so (a stuffed bird, and the house that is in Glen Cove). It's fun to pick them out.
An atmospheric and suspenseful story, which holds interest. Streep is beautiful and plays the brittleness of her character very well I thought. Scheider is his usual dependable self.
Overall, I think a tad underrated and well worth a spare ninety minutes.
