Depressed by life in Dublin and eager to get away from the big city, young professional Molly (Ruth Bradley) relocates to a quiet commuter town, but grows uneasy by the fact that her neighborhood is all but deserted during the daytime hours. Later, when burglars break into Molly's new house, she quickly breaks down and buys a high-tech alarm system. Unfortunately, not even the comforting presence of Molly's new boyfriend (Aiden Turner) is enough to alleviate her anxiety, which quickly begins to spiral into paranoia as she suspects she has become the target of some rather vicious criminals. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Gerard Stembridge directs this charming comedy about a handsome stranger who wreaks havoc on an entire family. Pub torch singer Lucy Owen (Kate Hudson) falls for Adam (Stuart Townsend) as soon as she lays eyes on him. Tired of a string of failed short-termed relationships, she succumbs to Adam's radiate charisma and agrees to marry him after only knowing him for a scant couple of days. Yet when she brings him home to her family, she finds to her dismay that his magnetism works equally well on her two older sisters. The middle one, Laura (Frances O'Connor), is a shy bookish sort whose love for poetry proves to be her weakness, while eldest sister Alice (Charlotte Bradley) is aloof at first, but eventually she also yields to his wiles. This film was screened at the 2000 Sundance Film Festival. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi
