The 90's saw a load of very good films based on true stories. This one was based on real events, and is sad, because a young man just vanishes and his mother is desperate to look for him. It was painful to watch, and that killer, the girlfriend of her victim, was just heartless.

I like all movies that Patty Duke played in. I am watching one now WHEN HE DIDN'T COME HOME..

It suppose to took place up here in Chicago and I recalled a truck being pulled out of the lake belonging to a Timothy Dolan many years ago.

this was a very sad story. and I was kind of disappointed at the end with the father and brother getting little time in jail for dumping the body in the river.

I wish it showed how much time the lady got for killing Timothy Patty Duke if you read this. you are my umber 1 actress of all time

At last: A chick flick where the woman's a pig and the man's a sensitive human being. This movie delves into the hidden half (quarter, one-eight?) of spousal abuse, when the woman is the abuser. For a low budget made-in-Canada TV movie, it's better than you would expect. Yes, Toronto masquerades as Chicago again (remember My Big Fat Greek Wedding). But Kelly Rowan plays evil so well, it makes you want to spit when she appears on the screen. Patty Duke is the name star but she plays the concerned mother so realistically that you don't realize she's dominating the movie. I recommend that you tape it if it ever appears on late night TV.
