Summary: Little Known Underrated Gem!!Excellent Suspenseful Drama!!
Review: Based on the Robert Houston novel Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday.This Movie is set in 1943 during WW2 in the backwoods the small southern town called Parrish West Virginia.Abused wife, Maggie Gresham(Kathy Baker) plays a woman who watched her father literally imprison her mother in the backhouse and then was sold by her preacher to be brother Sheb(John Glover) to an evil strawboss.After finding out that her husband is brutally murdered with an axe,she then takes in a drifter named Bastion Morris(Peter Weller) who admits he murdered her husband,holds her captive and claims he was seeking revenge against Maggies husband for an adulterous affair with his wife and killing his family.Maggie fights with her emotions whether she can trust Bastion and ends up physically and romantically involved with him.Bastion turns be both abusive and deceiving like her late husband which results in the final climax.This independent movie is an exceptional,little known Gem that is well worth watching!!It reminds me of another Southern story"Fried Green Tomatoes" which also deals with evil men who are properly taken care of!! An excellent,suspenseful drama and watch out for those stray killer dogs!!

Summary: Elizabeth Montgomery & O.J. Simpson are fabulous!
Review: She's (Elizabeth Montgomery, star of Bewitched) single and a cop. He's married and her partner. Their affair blows detective headquarters sky high!
Elizabeth Montgomery and O. J. Simpson are teamed for police work and romance in this controversial made for TV movie. This bittersweet love story is told within the framework of a crime drama. The interacial affair, realisticly depicted by it's stars, sparked major debates in 1977!
Co-stars Dean Stockwell (Quantum Leap), Dolph Sweet, Rosalind Cash, Allan Rich, Charlie Robinson, John P. Ryan, Karmin Marcelo, and Todd Bridges (Different Strokes).
This movie first aired on September 21, 1977 with a running time of 97 minutes. Highly recommend for Elizabeth Montgomery fans. She's not as sweet as Samantha (everyone's favorite TV witch) in this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
