There's some fine acting in this little made-for-tv movie. But that doesn't redeem the story which seems quite dated. I just watched it on AcornTV, and the story left me sad and depressed. No thank you. I believe the reaction that any woman would have today would be quite different. We've come a long way from martyrdom, especially when combined with a husband's infidelity, taking the long-suffering wife for granted that though he left for greener pastures, she'd be the one to take care of his elderly family. Oh hell no.
