Who's the dashing lady in the picture above? None other than the daughter of Kate Capshaw, wife of Steven Spielberg. Kate is an actress, of course, and daughter Jessica joins the tradition. Doesn't Jessica resemble her mom?
Jessica is fantastic in a little known made-for-TV Lifetime Movie Network mystery called Blind Trust. As I've said in previous discussions, whodunnits on LMN are among the best you'll find. I would encourage viewers not to watch much of the other movies on LMN: they mostly involve woman as victims of male abuse...very unpleasant!
But for a good old-fashioned mystery, you may not discover better than LMN! Move over, Alfred Hitchcock!
In Blind Trust, Jessica plays a woman on trial for a double murder. Can't divulge details, because I won't be a spoiler, but let's just say that Jessica ends up trusting the wrong guy! The plot is a grabber: the single woman, who's quite passionate about her new boyfriend, finds him and her roommate dead. Who done it???
Art Hingle, not a major name among actors, is also outstanding as the lawyer. He's smart, clever, truly brilliant in court. But does he have a tragic flaw? He seems a bit sleazy... And what about his assistant?
Ah, so many folks could possibly be bad! Therein lies the wonder of this entrancing crime flick. If you like mysteries, put this one at the top.
Enjoy!
