Reviews

george.schmidt CAUGHT (1996) *** Edward James Olmos, Maria Conchita Alonso, Arie Verveen, Steven Schub, Bitty Schrimm. Kind of an update of `The Postman Always Rings Twice' with drifter Verveen (in an impressive acting debut reminiscent echoing early Brando) who wanders into the lives of a Jersey City fish store owner and his wife making more than a difference and causing a rippling effect by his impact. Schub effectively balances menace and annoyance as easily the worst attempt at becoming a comedian!

dwpollar 1st watched 12/1/1997 - (Dir-Robert M. Young): Well put-together story of the cost that is paid for sin, more specifically adultery. Excellent acting by all with many unexpected moments.

bilfro Here's one I saw on cable at two in the morning, and what a pleasant surprise. Part working class BODY HEAT, part character study, CAUGHT avoids possible soap opera pitfalls with realistic dialogue, microscopic scale and Young's compelling direction. Occasionally the story seems to veer towards melodrama, then moves back toward intense, logically motivated realism. When Olmos and Alonzo's son pops in, the third act crescendos with emotional fireworks and a somewhat-necessarily overblown ending.

none-85 A fairly common theme- a young drifter has an affair with a bored older married woman, but somehow special. Very erotic, but not an X movie and tastefully done. Alonso is great, as are Olmos and the newcomer- Vereen. Also has a little bit of comedy. Alonso is very sexy, and also very realistic. You can actually feel what the three leads are feeling. The setting- a fish market is perfect. The characters of the three leads are all sypathetic and likeable. I have watched the movie several times.
