Negative Positive
Title: The Stranger is Close
Review: What a surprise, after watching Eric Close in Magnificent Seven as Vin Tanner and Without A Trace as Martin Fitzgerald, to see him playing a totally remorseless sexual predator. Yes, he's really good looking and uses that beautiful smile, but he slowly makes it clear that there is something seriously wrong with his character. He and Tiffani Theissen look like your all-American couple, but one of them is a manipulator of the first order, and the other is vulnerable and trusting. It's fascinating to watch evil unfolding and Close makes you a believer mainly with his eyes. There's obsession and insanity revealed in those baby blues.
