Here's a mystery: Why do Hollywood kids call their mums, "Mormy, Mormy"? You never hear teenagers or adults say it like that, so the question is, at what age do Hollywood kids stop saying "Mormy" and what triggers the change? Anyway, now for the film. The question is not who did it - we actually know the answer - but who instigated it? Faith Kelsey (Cybill Shepherd) wants her wedding ring back but is that a good enough motive for murder? Or could be that the dead woman stole Kelsey's first husband? Faith herself is hardly a paragon of virtue, playing the seductress to get her way; and her father is hardly sympathetic to her problems.
Whilst the other actors play their parts well enough, Cybill Shepherd does not really convince as the cunning seductress she is supposed to be. In fact, it would be difficult to think of any reason why she would have so much attraction to any man. She comes across as a bit of a Plain Jane and not much better on the emotion front. On a different subject, I found it quite amusing during the assassination attempt at the lake, when the actor (or stuntman) playing Faith's new husband Terry, tries to escape the gunmen by jumping high into the air before diving into the water. He should be recruited into the Olympics high-jump team. Otherwise it was an acceptable way of passing three hours.
