CGiii Comment

Not one the most prolific auteurs out there...(thank God).

Let down by a thoroughly dreadful cast and an almost lamentable (and often laughable) script.

More money should have been spent on better actors...perhaps then, this might have had a chance.

There is a decent story among all the mess. A bit of on-screen talent may have brought it to the fore.

Huckert, possibly, could not direct even the most accomplished actor - if this is anything to go by.

Unforgivable.
