Laird Koenig adapted his own novel - though source could easily have been a play as story inhabits a single location, where ballsy 13-year-old has to protect herself from a paedophile and his mother (Martin Sheen and Alexis Smith), and the police (Mort Shuman), who all want to know where her father is (as do we). She gets help from crippled magician Scott Jacoby but ultimately defeats the paedophilic pest herself (after a quick fling with the magician).
Jodie is fantastic - she doesn't even look like herself, particularly in nude scene (bottom doubled by her sister Connie).
