Title: Whoopi Goldberg shows her genius
Review: This 1987 film was evidently adapted from a stage play; only one set and virtually only one actess (Goldberg), who nonetheless shows her talent as a standup comic and keeps the audience entertained and intrigued for the duration of the film by doing little else than talking on the phone. She's an out-of-work, down-on-her-luck actress desperately trying to find work before being evicted. Eventually, the phone man appears to reclaim the phone since she hasn't been paying the bills. What happens next is an ending worthy of M. Night Shamaylan's Sixth Sense. Although this film is not fast-paced or action-packed, it makes up for it in originality and sheer talent.
