I wondered if anyone else that saw this movie noticed the framed picture in the standing closet when Charvet's character accidentally bumped into it when the electric was out. I'm about 95% sure that was Susan Lucci's real life husband, Helmut Huber, and in reading the crews names, I noticed he co-produced this movie. Anyone else notice it? Apparently the framed picture was "Charlotte's" husband in the movie.
I like both Susan Lucci and David Charvet as actors. I can see how the affair could actually happen in those circumstances, especially since Susan's character did several things to catch David off guard. But some of the movie was just too unrealistic, like the scene where Lucci shows up to dismiss the babysitter. The unrealism is why I voted the movie a 6.

Erika Kane strikes again
For surely this movie was out of her league. It's one thing to have a long long running part in a soap like ALL MY CHILDREN, but another to try to make it on the big screen. Susan Lucci is not an actress. She's more of a soap fixture. Her character name of Erika proceeds her acting abilities. In this film for TV, she still gives that large toothy smile she's known for and disrobes a lot showing a small and bony figure. Not that enticing in my book. The guy, David Charvet, was so much younger than her, that at times it was hard to believe he looked at the seductress at all. Most unbelievable. A somewhat attractive man, who could have any one, goes around saying he did it for the job and the money. Bah, humbug! His lovely wife, Gabrielle Carteris, did not even think he was betraying her. In another world. Although I felt she played the most honest performance in the movie. She and the little boy who played the son. All other actors seemed incidental. so, I give this movie 2 stars for both Carteris and the little boy.
Title should be YOUNG MAN, WITH LITTLE SMARTS, MEETS OLDER LADY WITH OBVIOUS DESIGNS.
Watch It For Susan Lucci Alone
Former All My Children mainstay Susan Lucci and David Charvet star in this TV movie "Seduced And Betrayed".Mary Ellen Trainor and Gabrielle Carteris co-star in this screenplay written by Cameron Kent about a rich and older widow Victoria Landers who draws a young married man and contractor Dan Hiller for the restoration of her house in Phoenix,Arizona into a web of seduction,passion and betrayal.
Well,after I have been into watching Lethal Seduction and Bad Sister and I got into this which has a similar storyline with the two those two movies mentioned about an older woman seducing a younger woman into an illicit affair.But unlike the them,it does not involve High School students but rather a married man getting involved into adultery.And just like them,things start to go awry and harmful when the older woman starts to behave psychotically and turn to her manipulative and violent tendencies when the man started to go out of relationship for she would not take "no" for an answer.The viewer would say,I have been there many times and Fatal Attraction as well as classic 60's movie The Graduate come to mind.
But despite of these reasons and the movie being two decades old,it was nice to see Susan Lucci in another role other than Erica Kane.Being a talented actress as evidenced by he 19 Emmy Award nominations,she played a great evil and manipulative seductress in Victoria.She never overplayed the role as she used her natural beauty and charms.As the violent woman,she was definitely convincing. Watch this TV movie directed by Félix Enríquez Alcalá for her alone.
