William and Nicolette together again


I enjoyed this movie because William Devane and Nicolette Sheridan have such great chemistry.

It's true it reminded me of "Outbreak." But, it was still a good movie in it's own right.

Saw this on tv in Britain today,not much better than a film shown in the afternoon on channel 5 in Britain.
What made it worth watching for me was Nicolette Sheridan's performance,she puts a lot of effort into her work and she stands out from the rest of the cast.
Of course the fact that she is beautiful helps from the male point of view.
Did this film make her a star or did that have to wait until she was on tv more recently?

Well, she had a couple of big screen roles shortly after this TV film. But since 1998 she was kinda having trouble to land a decent role which is a shame because she is a beautiful and talented woman. So, practically yes - her big break never arrived until 2004 and "Desperate Housewives". She was making those TV movies all the time and then some guest-stints on sitcoms like Will & Grace and Becker. Nothing big.

Her original claim to fame was "Knots Landing" with William Devane, her costar in this film. "Desperate Housewives" just revived her career again.
