How Could You Not Want to See This?

How to describe the breathaking majesty of this film? Simple: Mimi Rodgers in the full maelstrom of nationwide Fowley Fever takes on a tv film project in which she will play a single mother who will prostitute herself in Reno in order to pay for her aging mother's Alzheimer's medicene. Dotty mom played by Tyne Daily. When daughter done dirty by amoral casino pimp, dotty mom comes through with old mafia connection to snuff wrongdoing party and free daughter from iron grip of party-town hooker industry. Octogenarian hitman dresses like Cab Calloway and drives Edsel. Honest, earnest blond guy enters in Act III to save mom, kid, and Mimi via the good-natured earthiness of his awesome wardrobe of plaid shirts. In every shot, Mimi's every facial wrinkle is lovingly emphasized.

Not so hot.

Mimi Rogers stars in this TV-movie about a single mother in financial straits who has to keep supplementing her income with what she makes from part-time prostitution. She'd like to give it up since she's no young woman anymore and the risks are just too great, but events conspire against her. This could make for an interesting story but neither this movie or Rogers' performance are very compelling. Talented veterans Tyne Daly and Ray Walston are among the cast but they don't help much.
