Seduced

At the request of a wealthy associate named "Arthur Orloff" (Mel Ferrer), a popular politician serving as the states' attorney by the name of "Mike Riordan" (Gregory Harrison) tentatively accepts the position as CEO for a corporation which has been badly managed. Interestingly enough, Arthur's decision is made in spite of the fact that Mike had a romantic relationship with his wife "Vicki Orloff" (Cybill Shepherd) and it is quite clear that some chemistry remains between the two of them. So much so that, when Arthur is murdered in his home by a burglar a few days later, it isn't long before the two of them rekindle their love affair. The problem, however, is that rumors quickly surface that Arthur had recently written Vicki out of his will--which gives her a motive into the burglary and subsequent murder. And the fact that she is sleeping with the lead investigator of this case makes things even more complicated. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this was an okay film for the most part which had an interesting plot and some good actors in most of the key roles. On the other hand, the lack of suspense--and the fact that this was a made-for-television production--limited the overall effect, in my opinion, and for that reason I have rated this movie accordingly. Average.
