Pleasantly Surprised..
I have to admit I checked out this movie solely because it was filmed locally and was curious how it turned out – what a pleasant surprise! I would describe this quiet, somewhat slow moving film as a bittersweet, and moving testament to the bonds of family. It is also eerily reminiscent of Redford’s “Ordinary People” starring Keifer’s dad, Donald Sutherland. The performances were A+. The interplay between father and son were especially moving and I couldn’t help thinking( hypothetically of course)of Keifer’s own personal issues with his own estranged father(especially since Keifer also directed this, as well as starred in it). Ideally this movie would of, I believe, have had a bigger audience as a movie of the week or say a Hallmark presentation. Too bad, as “Woman Wanted” is a likable film deserving of more recognition, or even possibly an Emmy nomination if it was. But be warned, this movie is quite slow…just stick with it, it’ll be worth it.
Everyone sees something different
I liked the movie until the woman turned as evil as the son, that kind bond killing between father and son is irreversible. It also tries to “make it ok” when in real life such a reconciliation between could never happen not to mention causing a child to be raised that way without knowing if he had a father or grandfather or which is which.
