Of course there are some who might call Daisy herself a cold-blooded murderer. After years of weaving taut tales of greed intrigue and violence she has just "killed off" her most popular fictional character so she can focus on creating more "meaningful" novels. Unfortunately as Daisy rides out the weekend - and an ominous storm - she discovers that she is NOT alone. Turns out not everyone is happy about the abrupt demise of Daisy's anti-hero. In fact someone intends to make her pay... with her life!Originally aired on CBS in 2003.System Requirements:Run Time: 95 minsFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE/THRILLERS Rating: NR UPC: 783722738320 Manufacturer No: AFW27383 Product Description

Crack Mystery Thriller

A phobic female mystery writer (Candice Bergen) arrives home late one night to find her dog missing and an intruder in her house. The intruder says he's a fan and met no harm. But then a cop appears, invites himself inside and chases the kid off. But soon the writer begins to suspect the cop may not in fact be a cop, may be a hit man instead, and the plot begins to thicken.

This story is written as a play, so there are few characters, a lot of dialogue and more than a measure of surprises and intrigue. Candice Bergen provides a sterling performance as does Bryan Brown. I'll watch this movie again. November 17, 2006
