"Don't Say A Word" rated R
What a good thriller. Confusing at first; which makes you
wonder how they will tie it all together.
Preeminent New York psychiatrist
Dr. Nathan Conrad has a successful practice, a beautiful
wife and a charming daughter. Making his way home for the
Thanksgiving holiday, Conrad is summoned by a colleague
to examine a young woman. Elisabeth Burrows presents a history
of unexplained violence, failed treatments and misdiagnoses.
In short, the kind of case Nathan used to live for before
he went 'uptown.' Now he is Elisabeth's last chance before
she is shipped off to a state institution. Nathan's skills
and intuition begin to make headway into Elisabeth's case.
Little does Nathan suspect that Elisabeth is tied to a danger
that has closed in on him and his family. Nathan's daughter
has been kidnapped by ruthless thieves, and to save her
he must somehow unlock a 6-digit number locked away in Elisabeth's
troubled mind. With his daughter's captors watching his
every move, Nathan is constantly reminded: if he wants to
see his daughter alive, he dare not say a single word.
This movie is along the lines of "Rear Window" and Fatal
Attraction" meaning lots of action.

. "Bandits" rated
pg-13
Was hysterical. .
The true story of a trio
of fugitives--two bank robbers and the woman they both love.
When the suave irresistible Joe and his hypochondriac partner,
Terry, escaped from prison, they cut a swath from Oregon through
California, robbing banks in order to finance their scheme
for a new--and somewhat legitimate life--south of the Border.
In their wake, they leave a trail of chaos, disguises, wrecked
automobiles -and an adoring public- while fleeing from the
law. Their operation is running smoothly until they have an
unexpected run-in with Kate, who is drawn to the thieves as
a way to escape her ordinary life. Together Joe and Terry
are the most successful bank robbers in U.S. history. To Kate,
they also combine to make the perfect man. Things get more
complicated when the police and media assume that Kate is
their hostage and organize a massive manhunt to save her from
the clutches of Joe and Terry.
A cross between bonnie and clyde and butch cassidy
and the sundance kid. Written by Harley Peyton and directed
by Barry levinson this is a must see.
