I have never seen a role more appropriate than this one for Christopher Reeve. It seems as though he was born to play Father Cusack. He delivers a powerful performance in this testimonial. Also, Greg Martinelli and Dennis Paoli offer a gripping story full of plot twists and turns that leave you reeling. The dialogue is flavorful and fresh, reminding viewers of the reality and humanity of the characters. With outstanding plot devices and symbolism, these writers really make life easy for Reeve, Guinan, McMillan, and Allen. The brilliantly crafted screenplay and top notch showings of the aforementioned more than make up for a lackluster if not stolid acting performance by Roxann Dawson, or Roxann Biggs, or whatever she goes by these days. Still, she finds herself unable to bring down this pearl amongst clam shells in a saturated film market. Bravo, and I can't wait for the next collaboration from Martinelli and Paoli.
