Title: THAT'S WHAT FRIENDS ARE FOR
Review: One of the four movies in the 'Joanne Kilbourne Mysteries', A COLDER KIND OF DEATH is a competent little thriller. Wendy Crewson returns as Kilbourne, who is shocked when the murderer of her husband is finally caught after six years. The accused professes his innocence, but in vain when a sniper kills him on the way out of the police station. Who is responsible and why did they kill him. The accused also has a malicious wife, played with seething venom by Kari Matchett, who suggests she had an affair with the late Mr. Kilbourne. The suspects include a cache of politically motivated friends, including Oscar nominee Teri Garr (from TOOTSIE).Brad Turner keeps his direction crisp, and the performances overall are very good. Victor Garber (now on ABC's ALIAS) has a solid presence as Kilbourne's ex-partner.I've enjoyed the three of these movies I've viewed so far; they're intelligent and good mysteries.
