Plot
The wealthy Melanie and Keith Bauers are a married couple with two beautiful children. Melanie decides to hire a French au pair, Janine. At first, things in the household run smoothly under Janine's care. However Melanie's sister Paula discovers that Janine and Keith are having an adulterous affair and is thereafter killed in an accident. Soon, Melanie turns up dead as well. Laney Tolbert, Melanie's best friend, teams up with a police detective to find the culprits responsible.
Cast
Critical reception
Time Out wrote, "Your basic Hand That Rocks the Cradle knock-off. French au pair, employed by wealthy Americans, takes charge of kids, husband, house and car, edging the wife and mother out of the picture and rubbing out anyone in the way. Family friend Garr investigates, helped by sympathetic cop Elizondo and sleazy private eye Smith, leading to a highly uninteresting conclusion. With its boring, high-key TV-movie look, banal script, and comatose performances, it makes Curtis Hanson's creaky Rebecca De Mornay vehicle seem the pinnacle of the genre."[6]
