I'm glad I watched this. I wouldn't call it great, but as 70s TV movies go I would guess that this is one of the better ones. Young, deaf Jeffrey Bravin is a marvel. The other thing I got out of it is that I need to see more James Woods movies. Even here, restrained on CBS, the man is an absolute powerhouse.
