THE WINTER MAN Silent Night Man & Sutton's Way

THE WINTER MAN presents two stories: The first tells the irritating tale of Millie Evans, a librarian who is being hunted by a hit man hired by her now dead stalker. The second equally implausible story recounts the woes of Amanda Callaway, a famous singer who seeks some "alone time" in a remote cabin, only to be "rescued" in a blizzard and forced to spend time with Quinn Sutton, a rustic rancher. He is the least desirable and least likable hero of a love story one could imagine. Narrator Marguerite Gavin provides a yo-yo voiced narration, an annoying cadence, and an acting style that is caricatured. Overall, the combination of story and narration is unappealing.
