An exemplary portrayal of angst by Kate Nelligan who's son disappears without a trace. Great effort by Judd Hirsch as the compassionate detective in charge of the case. A little too contrived during the last 2 minutes but a nice ending regardless.

A worthly endeavor from director Roman Polanski who managed to put forth this superb suspense thriller all the while avoiding authorities in America. This wonderful film is available in Region 2 (wide-screen) but a lousy trashy Pan & Scan here in DVD Region One. WHY??????????????????????
