Decent because of Winona

Gone In The Nights tells the tale of Kath who has a bit of a pillock of a boyfriend who then dumps her overnight when having a weekend cabin retreat.

They get there and find another couple are booked as well so both have to hunker down.

Kath's fella sneaks off with the younger woman leaving her there with the woman's very strange boyfriend Al.

She takes it on the chin at first then decides to find that woman by contacting the owner.

Cue Kath being attracted to Dermot Mulroney who says he will help her with her search.

The story is told via flashbacks which give us important background and 'seem' to tell a story that 'seems' to be a conspiracy but all is not as it 'seems'.

The ending is decent enough even if it was telegraphed a bit.

I got it slightly wrong but in the right area.

We find out why it was/is called The Cow which is interesting.

The end scene with Winona is rather well done.

Acting from Winona and Mulroney is as you would expect, pretty good. The rest of the cast so-so but not too bad.

90 minutes probably about right as the script is not exactly Alfred Hitchcock.

It's something worth watching if you have time to kill but nothing to worry about if you miss it.

I gave it 5 but added 1 for Winona who played her part well.
