Standout Aspects

Acting

Jamey Sheridan doing double duty with two haircuts.

Costume

Peak early 90s power suits and mob wife energy.

Best for:Solo: Ironically perfect for when you're avoiding family drama.·Background: Fold laundry to this. You won't miss much visually.
Heads up:Violence: TV-movie level: gunplay, some blood, nothing gratuitous.·Sexual Content: Implied affairs, mostly fade-to-black 90s discretion.
