This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

A woman who thinks she has been widowed for 5 years finds out one day her husband has just died and has been leading some secret double life all this time. So she hires an investigator to find out what happened. Madchen Amick looks really pretty here. She has chemistry with her co star Andrew W Walker. The action is slow to unfold and as there is some rather vague medical conspiracy thing. When the mystery is finally explained it isn't that clear but by then don't really care.

Jean Brooks (Mädchen Amick) is shocked when her presumed dead husband Sam turns up in the morgue 5 years later. She hires Eddie Fate (Andrew W. Walker) to investigate the missing years which show no records of him. The police believes it's all about the insurance money.This is a better-than-most Lifetime movie. The premise has good noir possibilities. Amick is a great actress. Once she hires Eddie, they should investigate together and build chemistry. This should be them having a fun thrilling ride uncovering the mystery. It's a mistake to let them separate. In many ways, I'm not concerned about the mystery. It's a McGuffin. The main aspect is the relationship and there's not enough of it. They get together later which is a little too late.

I happened upon this movie on a rainy day. The plot is interesting but the explanations given are not satisfactory. Why did Sam wait five years to attempt to see his wife? How could they release his body to his "new wife" when he was still married to his original wife? I watched the whole movie because I wanted to know what happened and I enjoyed the romantic part of it. All actors did a poor job at times but overall it was good relaxing two hours and I could still fold laundry as I didn't feel I had to concentrate. The plot could be developed and refined into a very good movie with better actors. I really enjoyed watching Andrew Walker he is very cute.

Caught this one on cable the other night. I actually thought it was enjoyable. It's about a couple who are separated after a tragic event years ago and reunited years later. The lady finds out he didn't die until recently. She goes to Detroit with a former cop-turned P.I., to investigate further as to what happened. She gets to know the investigator quite well and ends up falling in love with him. This was a good movie with some lesser known actors who keep the movie going! It stars Madchen Amick as Jean the widow and Andrew Walker as the investigator that accompanies her to Detroit. Definitely worth checking it out if you're into a drama or a good thriller!!
