Review

A bored married woman (Barbara Williams) has her intimate diaries stolen by a professional burglar (Steven Bauer), only for him to seduce her by creating a persona based on her dreams and inner secrets. Only in the 1980s could a film combine this level of tackiness with such sincerity. The writer and first-time director Douglas Day Stewart, penner of An Officer and a Gentleman, lacks a talent for subtlety and finer details, but what he succeeds in is creating a picture with a surprising amount of integrity and cohesion. And Bauer and Williams, although arguably not setting the world on fire with chemistry, both create interesting, off-beat characters in their own right.
