Highly derivative of 'Cuckoo's Nest, but none the less engaging at times for its story and performances. The mistreatment of old people is often touched upon but not usually highlighted enough in film; however, the tone here is often at odds with the characters and plot to be especially memorable. Nonetheless, Douglas is a commanding actor, and Montgomery does a good turn as the villainess. Along with the decent enough story, they give some gravitas to a TV movie generally confused in its own unrealised aesthetics. Either a touch more humour or seriousness might have done the trick. As it is, it's equal parts corny and sad, although good enough as an obscure viewing.
