Murder Story (1989)
A thriller with hidden depths
When you start something, finish it. That is the mantra spoken often in this movie. While the story starts slow, it builds towards an exciting end. The characters, both major and minor, are well drawn, complete with personality quirks, that add depth and interest to the story. Alexis Denisof, in his film debut, does a great job portraying Tony's innocent exuberance, and determination to start what he has finished. This film gets better every time I watch it.
Angel (1999)
This show keeps getting better and better!
WARNING: Contains minor spoilers for overseas viewers, thru end of 1st season.
I was never a big fan of Angel on Buffy, but I was curious about his new show, so I tuned in. I loved it from the very first episode. It is very clever, both with the humor and the drama. I loved Doyle, and was crushed when he was killed off the show. I stopped watching for 2 weeks. My BIG mistake!! The wonderful addition of Alexis Denisof, as Wesley, has added a new dimension to the show, and made it even better! The idea of an ex-watcher, allied with a vampire, confronting (and being tortured by) his rogue slayer, Faith, was truly compelling. Wesley, Angel, and Cordy share a special bond - they are all trying to help each other to correct passed failures in their lives, and have created a complex "family" unit. Those who stopped watching when Doyle was killed should give this show another chance. I know they will not be disappointed!
