Mortal Thoughts has turned out to be decent picture although I don't like it.
The performances by Demi Moore, Glenne Headly, and Harvey Keitel prevent the film from being labeled a stinker in
spite of Bruce Willis who's annoying. I like the plot, and it's interesting, but I think it'll be a lot easier to go straight
to the police and confess.
With supporting testimonies of how violent the husband was, the wife's case may hold up in court. Hence, there's no reason
to cover up the crime because it's been justifiable in the name of self defense against rape. For a while, I was predicting
that Demi Moore's and Bruce Willis' characters conspired to get together eventually because they happened to be married in real life.
All in all, Mortal Thoughts is a well-made picture, but it's not for me.
