This is Susan Lucci at her very best - a rich, bored wife of a philanderer who amuses herself by seducing the young men at the country club, one boy toy per summer. The problem is, this guy takes her seriously. This is one of those fun TV movies that borders on high camp, the kind of film made often in the '80s and done too rarely today! But Lucci lends herself to this kind of thing so when you see her name on a TV movie, you can bet it's going to be watchable and entertaining. In this film, the object of her affections is a sympathetic character. I found myself taking his side during certain points in the film. The ending is over the top, but I understand this is a true story. Lesson: you're dealing with out of control hormones, anything can happen.
