Synopsis

Actor-turned-director Tim Reid follows up the success of his 1996 opus Once Upon a Time...When We Were Colored with this tense psychological thriller. The film opens with two upwardly mobile couples having a ball at a fairground. Chance (Blair Underwood) and his very pregnant wife Roberta happily board a Ferris wheel with their best friends Michael (Michael Beach) and his fashion designer wife Lauren (Debbi Morgan) when a freak accident strikes, and Roberta and the baby are killed. Michael and Lauren let Chance grieve at their luxurious abode. Soon Lauren reveals that she recently had a secret abortion because she did not know if the child was Michael's or Chance's. Grief-stricken and jealous, Chance starts stalking Lauren and doing everything in his power to wreck her marriage. This film was screened at the 1999 Chicago Film Festival.

  • Man of God Cast Asunder from 'Survivor'

    HOLLYWOOD, June 29, 2000 -- Lord, that Biblethumper bugged the bejezus out of his fellow castaways. And so when it came time to boot another body off the Island "Survivor", Dirk Been, an otherwise strapping 23-year-old dairy farmer from Wisconsin, got kicked.

    Dirk, ejected as of Wednesday's episode, is the fifth contestant to get the hook, leaving 11 left to compete for the $1 million jackpot.

    What was Dirk's problem?

    "It's not that I'm against his faith or nothing," fellow castaway Susan Hawk said on the CBS Web site www.cbs.com. "But he spends all day reading his Bible and praying."

    True to his M.O., Dirk turned the other cheek when reflecting on his gameshow experience.

    "Thank you God," Dirk tells the site.

    He also said: "Thank you Lord."

    And then: "Thank you Jesus Christ."

    And then: "Thank you Holy Spirit."
