Well, my entry for this week is "Sleeping with the Enemy."
And here's the plot.
Julia Roberts starred in this thriller movie about a battered wife stalked by her abusive husband. Roberts plays Laura Burney, the wife of rich investment counselor, martin (Patrick Bergin). Martin appreciates appreciates his wife as a trophy, but at home he abuses her for not keeping the house as clean as he would like it. The verbal abuse descends into physical violence --so much so that Laura decides to disappear rather than live a life under Martin as a brutalized slave. Laura fakes her own death by drowning, and relocates to Cedar Falls, Iowa, where she changes her name to Sara Waters. She starts a relationship with her friendly Iowa neighbor Ben Woodward (Kevin Anderson) but her happiness is short-lived. Martin has discovered that Laura has staged her drowning and is coming to Iowa to reclaim his possession. ~ Paul Brenner, All Movie Guide. source

enjoyed Sleeping with the Enemy too mommy nuts. although i am not really a fan of movies that feature violence against women, i just had to watch this since julia is in it. pansin mo, dati, drama at suspense-thriller genres nya.. tapos nung 2000 onwards, more on lighter, romantic comedy roles na?

must be an interesting movie!
Oh-oh what a story. I mean it's not uncommon but when it's Julia acting, it becomes kinda something else. Good pick.
