Living with the Enemy (I) (2005 TV Movie)
7/10
Living With the Enemy- With Husbands Like This ***
1 June 2007
Warning: Spoilers
A beautiful Sarah Lancaster stars in this unusual movie. Mr. Humphrey (Philip Lauder) shows a profile similar to John Edwards.

As an assistant to an executive, Allison finds the love of her life- any woman would find this handsome hunk a gem, as he is a billionaire. His firm, Cobalt, is amazing.

After a day of whirlwind romance, they wed and the fun begins. He brings her home to an estate run by his alcoholic vicious sister who thinks she is an older version of Dorothy Malone's Oscar winning performance in "Written on the Wind." I thought that this sister would be another Mrs. Danvers of "Rebecca" fame. Allison also sees that the house is like a fortress and she is given rules to live by the security agency that guards her.

Turns out that Phil Lauder was married twice before. Wife #2 was kidnapped and found dead. While walking on the street, Allison is pulled away by the FBI. She finds that Phil is under investigation for shady dealings-anyone opposing Cobalt seems to meet a sudden, nasty end.

Look out for a sinister attorney-friend, the real culprit. The end is rather satisfying as we realize that Allison has become another Cinderella.It's another fairy-tale ending.
