My Kidnapper, My love

Fabulous movie, overlooked by Hollywood for Emmy Nominations across the board, movie was great, French Quarter Setting & Music, heartwarming story of good vs bad, James Stacy was Producer & Lead Actor, Denny. Denny evolved from a man who might be capable of doing something bad, to compassion for someone struggling in life played by Glynnis O'Connor, GeeGee. Their first meet & misread led to a disaster of an attempt at a sexual encounter initiated by Denny, GeeGee needing a roof over her head was okayed to stay with Denny, while Denny & his brother (Rooney) Plotted holding GeeGee for ransom. As the story proceeds Denny realizing his compassion for GeeGee, her lifetime struggles, & the feelings he has for his intended victim, allows GeeGee to initiate future intimate encounters, marvelous surprise ending.
