    This movie could have been SO MUCH BETTER - - and there are parts of this movie that are good. But it is CLEARLY not consistent. Julia Ormond is one of the most natually beautiful women in the world - - and she does pretty good. But supporting cast brings this movie down to mediocre, at best.

    Traditional prison movie to have a hero. As usual the main prisoner is the hero along with the lady dentist. Movie very intertaining.

    Excellent acting and photography but I didn't find enjoyable watching the downfall of a self-destructive woman. Best recommended for masochists.
