A better-than-average TV movie, inspired by a real-life incident, which, like Hitchcock's The Wrong Man, recounts the tragic repercussions of a false accusation. When a girl is kidnapped, her parents (played effectively by Shannen Doherty and Kevin Dillon) are suspected of the crime just to compound their torment. This marks something of a return to form for director Bill L Norton, who, with the help of a unusually strong supporting cast, drives the Kafkaesque nightmare to a powerful climax.
I really enjoyed this movie considering it was about 3 hours long. It was a very sad moving film & the acting was really good. Cant believe that the parents got blamed for the killing of their daughter & if this film was a true story like it says it was the people involved who accused the parents need to be shot.
Quite a disturbing film, a little too long but does give you all the information about the real case. Keeps you in suspense to find out the outcome. Very harrowing & touching film, definitly worth seeing.
