    He's having a mid life crisis and the 18 year old girl is a distraction. He's using her and she's too naive to know that. He doesn't love her. He feels lust. Big difference.

      Definitely a mid-life crisis, but that involves more than just lust. It's about trying to do the impossible and be young again. Also, as expressed in this film, looking for a simple relationship with a stranger, as opposed to the complicated feelings that have built up during a long term relationship.

      That's what makes it so tough for child actors is after they leave their biggest send off of a run of a show, and they go on to movies and other acting people keep locking them into in their minds to where they started at and they can't get their original characters out of their own had while they're watching the actors try to expand their acting careers as adults in a different role

    Whenever a married man showed interest in me, even when I was that young, it immediately drew a red flag in my mind. No way was I crossing that line. I had too much respect for the wife. My parents had a solid marriage and I'd never want to break up a sacred bond. It's just selfish

    • @SilkyShish
      @SilkyShish Год назад +16

      I was exactly the same. For me, the reason is my father was a serial cheater and constantly cheated on my mother. It broke her heart. So, seeing this as a child completely disgusted me to cheating and cheaters. There is never a good reason to cheat and it hurts everyone in the cheaters and the victim's circle of family and friends.

Even if they are about a taboo subject they are still done with taste and are not vile or full of nudity or cussing. The endings are unsatisfying in many of the shorter films and this ending was better than most. I have been binging on the after-school specials from the 70's and 80's and they end like there should be a whole other scene. But there will never be another time in life like the late 70's through the 80's. They were just the best!!!

      @molly1847. Once the trust is gone in a marriage I don’t know how how it’s recaptured again. As difficult as it might be to cut the ties for financial security, for kids or out of sheer boredom, in the long run it’s the only option. Especially a situation like this where the creep hits on the young babysitter and the woman’s student. How is she supposed to return to work in a career she loves and is great at without thinking everyone knows. He couldn’t have humiliated her any more if he tried.

And be it a motion picture or a made for TV movie, you can usually tell if a movie is older from the quality, the sound being more muffled.

I have some vague memories of 1983 and to think this was considered modern quality at the time. 😂

      She knew and kept analyzing it and he was so non-committal with her AND especially his wife. How could he think the wife would just take him back!😮

    She was love sick & wanted attention. Wasn’t nothing wrong with her. They would’ve continued the relationship if they wouldn’t have got got.

    It is of interest that Caroline Rose Isenberg, a Harvard Senior, who played the brief part of Meg in this movie was sadly murdered on December 2, 1984 in NYC. After returning from a Broadway show, she was attacked, dragged to the roof of her apartment building and stabbed to death by Emmanuel Torres, the son of the building custodian. Torres was sentenced to life imprisonment for his crimes. Check out the Wikipedia entry for Caroline Rose Isenberg for more details.

      I just read about her on Wikipedia.
      How awful.
      Glad the guy got a life sentence, hopefully he didn’t get parole.

      Her sister commented above about this, but she didn't mention her sister's name. I was trying to Google it and couldn't find it. Thank you for the information.

    I remember watching a thriller movie back in the day with MSA starring in it. I believe she played as twins, one of which was the evil twin. Can't remember the name of it, but it was a good one of the 1980s.

    Melissa Sue Anderson was an insufferable shoot on the set of Little House on the Prairie. She was a great actress because she pretended to be beat friends with her TV sister when she snubbed her off off set, Melissa Gilbert was only one is "Mary's victims.
    Melissa Gilbert and Allison Ingram were the very best of friends throughout the entire series.
