THE HERALD IVIardi ml- Page la Entertainment Movie Review GEORGETOWN CINEMAS 235 GUELPH STREET Sleeping With the Enemy SMASH WEEK ByDIAHANNNADEAU Herald Special Sleeping With the Enemy is Julia Robertss latest film a vehicle intended to capitalize on her new star status She is centre stage here with two relatively unknown actors in the male role Sleeping is no Oscar con tender and Robertss role is not unduly demanding but the film is fairly suspenseful and not a bad way to pass a couple of hours Roberts is Laura Bumey a beautiful young woman leading a seemingly idyllic life she has an adoring husband Patrick Bergin a stunning house on the ocean En Cape Cod and money to spare However appearances are deceiving and the loving hus band is a jealous monster with a compulsion for neatness that is absolutely frightening Goaded beyond endurance Laura fakes her own death and disappears into the heartland Martin is deeply bereaved until his suspicions are suddenly aroused and he starts tracking Laura down Lauras new life quickly in dudes her neighbor Ben Kevin Anderson a drama teacher at the local university She makes an unfortunate visit to her blind mother and through Mom Mar tin is able to figure out everything Lauras beautiful new tife is about as safe as a hornets nest The trouble with this film is that the is not built up carefully enough and the denoue ment has an unlikely bit so meone lives who shouldnt that detracts from the credibility The other problem is that things move too quickly it takes very little time for Martin to figure out that Laura is not dead The suspence and shock would have been stronger had several months elapsed One has the im pression that less than a month passes everything seems too rushed Roberts is fine as the bruised wife and she is in almost every scene she carries the film Her beauty is still entrancing and it is impossible to take ones eyes off her face Bergin is suitably menacing as the obsessive husband and Anderson is good if too hairy as Ben Elizabeth Laurence plays Lauras ailing mother Sleeping With the Enemy isnt great more could have been done to deepen the suspense and fear However it works well enough and the scenery is quite wonder ful There are a few too many cliches here but that shouldnt stop you from seeing it Evenings at 700 pm Rita MacNeil fan favourite Just a few years back Rita sometimes had to
