blanche-2 I have to say I'm a little put out by the first review I read here which sort of blames the victim. First of all, Anne Marie Fahey wasn't cheating on her boyfriend. She met him and broke it off with Capano, who continued to harass her. Secondly, it wouldn't matter if she HAD cheated on her boyfriend, had an affair with a married man, or threw a rock through his window -- she didn't deserve to be murdered.Okay, that's out of the way. I know a little about the Anne Marie Fahey case from news shows; also, Capano just died last year of cardiac arrest. Capano's death sentence was commuted to life - I can't remember why -- but his life turned out to be fairly short.Mark Harmon is Thomas Capano, the man with everything - position, money, a beautiful family, a mother who doted on him, and two brothers who depended on him. The family was dysfunctional but that's beside the point. He had a lot going for him. When he met the shy Anne Marie Fahey, she fell into his trap immediately and believed that he and his wife didn't have much of a marriage (though the film doesn't mention it, he seems to have either been separated from her or have been in the process of separation when he met Fahey). First it was friendship, then it was love, and then she couldn't get rid of him. When she started seeing a psychiatrist, met someone else, and fell in love, Capano wouldn't let her go. Then she disappeared.In the meantime, he had another longstanding girlfriend, played by Rachel Ward.It took a while to bring Capano to justice, as he was a smart attorney as well as arrogant, and he felt that he was above the law.This is an excellent story, and Mark Harmon is so darn handsome and charming, you can understand why someone, be it a girlfriend, a wife, or a family member, would believe everything he says. Kathryn Morris was just right for Anne Marie (although I think she looked different physically from the real Anne Marie), playing her as shy, frail, and confused.Unfortunately if you follow true crime shows, there are just too many of this type of case, where murder seems to be the solution of choice -- the Scott Peterson and Drew Peterson cases come to mind, as well as others. "And Never Let Her Go" is a very sad story, about a girl from a loving family who wanted to meet Mr. Right, fell for Mr. Wrong, and paid the price.

wilmazagizbor617 I read the book and saw the movie and I think they are both good. However there are many mistakes in the movie from the real story. I was born and raised and currently live in Delaware so I know the story very well. First off Ann Marie had long curly brown hair and in the movie she was short, straight blonde hair. The other thing is they don't really show it is in Delaware. They say at the end when they catch him that hes on the express way, but there is not express way in Delaware. On a positive side Mark Harman was excellent. He made Tom Capano look like the creep he is. Overall i like the movie though minus the mistakes though i am a stickler about those. Also In September Tom Capano died in his jail cell.

katb723 Thomas Capano was not Anne Marie's boss Tom Carper, the Governor was. That is the reason the Feds became involved, he called Clinton and asked him to get the Feds involved in the case. I lived outside of Philadelphia at the time so the case was front page news every day. I also read Ann Rule's book and saw the "City Confidential" segment on A&E. Tom Capano was a megalomanic(sp.), an uber-controller and a monster. He claimed to love Ann Marie but all he wanted was someone that he could control. When she wouldn't let him do that anymore he killed her, the ultimate form of control. I think it's a waste of money that he is still alive.

dracula34 This excellent drama had me in suspense the whole time. I could not take my eyes off the screen for one second because every word kept connecting the pieces to this puzzling murder. This movie really touched me because it showed how sad and hard life can be. I really did cry in the end (which I don't want to give away!) It also let me realize how cruel and sickening people can be when it comes to murder. The cast was also very good. The only bad cast member was the actress who played Anne Marie. The actress did a great job, but the director didn't. I say this because he found someone who didn't look a single bit like Anne Marie Fahey herself.
