Memorable, crazy movie

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Standards can't be too high for this kind of Lifetime movie but it's below average by Lifetime standards. A mother who lost her child kidnaps a detective's daughter.The casting isn't great. The perp and the cop are a bit similar looking - just one more disheveled than the other.It seems ludicrous how the deranged mother Martha ended up such an efficient killing machine. Also our heroine is such an incompetent cop losing the gun while she had her gun pointed at perp. The nastiness of her colleagues seems unnecessary. Just isn't much story so they have to fill the time with silliness.

Wow! A woman police officer returns from leave following a trauma in a hostage situation. She returns only to have her own daughter seized by a woman recently released for killing a man who while driving intoxicated killed her husband and daughter.The woman was paroled based on the recommendation of the psychiatrist. Shortly after being freed, she is hit by a van and that experience leads her to believe that her daughter and husband are alive and she goes looking for them, with kidnapping a main result.How come this recent parolee already had a gun in her possession? Just shows you how lax our gun laws are.Our lady police officer has to contend with a fellow officer out to get her since he believes that she shouldn't be there, yet alone returning to work.Our parolee is nothing more than a vicious killer. Stop leaving these people out so early.
