The absolute best small scale ‘perfect crime’ thriller has nail-biting suspense, humor, sexy scenes, a shocking violent scene and apparently a terrific collaboration between director Daryl Duke and writer Curtis Hanson.

With a very early John Candy performance, too.

After a 61-year-old Iowa man admitted in open court to sexually abusing his granddaughter, the victim’s mother is asking why prosecutors are recommending he be given probation instead of prison time.
“What’s five years’ probation?” Kasey Hilpipre, the mother of the victim asked, according to Who TV. “Is he gonna pick her up again and take her into the woods again and she may not come out? What justice is that? What safety is that for the remainder of her life?”
