The Hand That Rocks the Cradle
1992
Director |
| When a heavily pregnant Sciorra accuses gynecologist De Lancie of molestation during a routine check-up, others step forward to make similar claims. His suicide, in order to prevent a public scandal, prompts his pregnant widow (De Mornay) to seek revenge on the family she holds responsible - in the guise of a nanny to their older child (Zima). Whilst all this is going on, a mentally retarded Hudson is helping out around the house, and steals the show with a wonderful performance. Word of warning about the UK Region 2 DVD print: The picture quality is average (very disappointing for DVD standards), the sound is only 2.0 (not 5.1), there are no "extras" and the screen format is non-anamorphic 1.85:1 WS. Another way of saying all that in simple terms: it's crap. |
