Helen Shaver is terrific, as is the story, direction, writing, etc etc. It is nto the standard format but it definitely works. About the only problems with it are minor:

All of the "twists" are extremely easy to predict. That isn't even something I usually bother trying to do, but, in this, they were obvious.

Some of the goofs were hilarious.

She is in bed @ 2 am. She gets up and walks across the room. Surprise! Bright daylight through the window. She drives and ends up at home at no later than 3 am. She goes inside. Surprise! Bright daylight through the window.

She brags about her "English" lemon marmalade. They show the jar on the table. Surprise! It is Polaner.
