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.

One of my favorite Mimi movies

I really like this movie! It explores the life of an ex-showgirl Jackie (Mimi Rogers) who won't let go of her "glory days". There's a great scene where Jackie and her roommate (Tyne Daly) have decorated their Christmas tree and when the star on top of the tree is lit Jackie stares at the light display and then off into space. You can tell she's thinking of the past. As an older retired showgirl she struggles with raising her son, working at a minimum wage job, and (after hours) performing "tricks" to make ends meet. Her life is a series of humiliating events and when one of her after-hour clients threatens not only her life but her son's life, she finally finds the courage not only to face him but also to face her own dead-end life and finally to move forward. Great story!

Mimi Rogers is one of my favorite actors. She has the ability to make you care about the character she portrays even when they are not the most likable of people. Tyne Daly and Ray Walston are wonderful as well.
