Compelling characters and story First, it was well acted by all characters. Second, the unfolding of the drama was very well done. Third, it placed me squarely in the place of the parents in this situation. The last point was the reason I rate it so highly. I had to ask myself what I would do in the parent's place. Would I have the courage to do what is right? Regardless of intelligence, education, and accomplishments, in the midst of a fiery trial, one can lose courage and reason. A strong personality, utterly misguided, deceived and unaware of his/her error, can wreak havoc on the vulnerable (especially his /her children) and increase the damage.
