This is a very good movie with an exceptionally good cast! Academy Award Winner Angels Bassett is a supporting role to Cheryl Ladd's leading role. Both are excellent. Dean Norris and Jean Smart are also terrific in their parts. Soap star Peter Reckell is also very good in his pivotal role. Everyone is good. Cheryl Ladd plays a beautiful, hard working but vulnerable single mother. She meets a guy she really likes but doesn't know he's a criminal who eventually sets her up to do his time in prison. She gets convicted while he gets probation for selling her out with his lies. Her sister takes the kids reluctantly. Things are not easy in prison but she makes the most of her time inside.
