RISA (JOANNA PACULA) ESCAPES CUSTODY TO SECURE HER FREEDOM

 This cable movie made in association with The Family Channel, features a cast of popular faces and is an entertaining thriller. Joan only appears in a couple of scenes and was not impressed with the final cut as most of her scenes had been cut as was Kate Jackson's. Joan plays an interesting character as she dons a blonde wig and plays a wheelchair bound beautician, mother to Joanna Pacula's character, Risa. There is little background available on the film, Joan accepted the role as she previously appeared in 'Hart To Hart in Three Quarter Time', which was also produced for The Family Channel.

ARIANA SETS THE WHEELS IN  MOTION TO CLEAR HER DAUGHTERS NAME!

The film has been screened on tv and only available on video in Australia and some European countries, it has yet to turn up on dvd.

Well worth a look for it's relaiable cast and to see Joan playing against type....
