REILLY'S RETURN

Jane Jordan, a movie critic and young widow, is trying to forget her past attraction to her late husband's good friend, hunky Australian movie star Pat Reilly. Reilly is determined to make Jane his, and he returns one year after he left to do just that. Susan Boyce's smooth voice works most of the time for this light story of love, generosity, and life's choices. However, Boyce’s inconsistent Australian accent is distracting, and her whispery rendition of Jane's voice becomes irritating. Still, the story offers a few hours of pure escape.
