(2009) High Noon
DRAMA/ ROMANCE
"HIGH NOON is one of four made-for-TV movies adapted from Nora Roberts romance novels for the Lifetime channel in 2009 (the other three are TRIBUTE,..." RT More of a serious drama than it is as a romance so ignore the Haliquin like poster. Not bad even with the dialogue constraints, about 'hostage negotiator', Lt. Phoebe McNamara (Emilie De Ravin) appeared being stalked by an old constituency during a previous job. Flipping through channels and upon reading the synopsis thought it had an interesting premise and upon seeing it I thought it was interesting to understand about proper protocol about what 'hostage negotiator's' do! Author Nora Ephron also received as one of the executive producer credits on this as well.

There is some authenticity in terms of procedures despite the feel of a Made for TV movie
hmm.....not very wary of things
Well...I haven't finished watching the movie, but there are a few things bugging me.
So, the main character is a cop/Hostage negotiator, right? She is attacked in the stairwell of the police building, after finding a torn up teddy bear on her front porch. The night she goes home, there is a weirdo outside whistling. Her house has no screens or alarm system that I can tell, and a low porch roof underneath her windows, where someone could EASILY enter the house. Yet, she has her window OPEN for the world, the curtains are open throughout the house and she is like, "lalala....oh a guy whistling..." What is THAT about. You do NOT put your couch underneath windows directly, it isn't safe unless you live in the boonies....you keep your windows shut if you have recently been attacked and for gosh sake be AWARE of your freaking surroundings. She isn't the brightest. Or the director made her not bright or something.
And, one more thing. Her child is very young and races to the door to answer it......how many times do parents need to be reminded that small children shouldn't answer the door...it isn't safe? Especially with wackos after you? Sheesh.
Disappointing.
