First of all, the shots of the bayou are lovely. It made me want to go visit, to be honest. One star for that and the other for Plimpton, who is cute and alluring beyond description. The rest? Blech! Jull Clayburgh completely destroys any chance this movie might have had with her unconvincing, flat line annoying presence. Every scene she in she overacts and wrecks any momentum. Herschey is merely good, but it's easy to see that the acting talent in the Swayze went to Don and not Patrick. This movie could have been something to remember but it instead turns into 80's formulatic drivel. Ridiculous.
