L'enfant caché de mon mari

Fairy watchable story but the silliness of the widow in taking in the mistress and son make it seem a bit lame. Not a must watch.

Allison Winters' world comes crashing down when her husband dies of a sudden heart attack, announcing on his deathbed that he has a secret family. Six months later, this family arrives on Allison's doorstep, determined to be a part of her life...

Very forced at the beginning, predicting a disastrous outcome, the widowed wife will not pay the legal part due to the dead husband's b*** son, however she offers her recently renovated guest house for mother (lover) and her son to live there, what's the logic rational in that... The outcome ended as it started, convenient, predictable, tolerable... Weak and regular...

Widow and her daughter find out that dying husband had a mistress and son who play the sympathy card and she lets them live on her property? Who would do that in reality? Skip it.

This is a great movie. It is very scary. Very well written. Very good acting. One the scareist movie I have see. Scarier then The silence of the lambs could ever be. If you want to get. Really scared see this movie.

And it was terrible. During the opening scene, I was hopeful that the movie would have a Revenge/Deception kind of vibe to it, but it didn't. First off, I believe the inheritance was only a million dollars? At the risk of sounding very first world, that's not enough money for all this drama. They own horses and that nice home on acreage and with their expensive taste....the inheritance should have at least been ten million for the movie to make sense.

As for the plot: the father has a heart attack at their daughter's party and he ends up dying not long after. On his deathbed, he admits to having an illegitimate son and Allison promises to look out for them. Well months later, the mom and son come to see if she meant it. This is where the movie lost me...you don't know them at all for the first thing. Did they really need to live on the property? They were strangers. Helping them find their own space would make more sense. I think they were going for a rich man/poor man, but it really didn't work for me. Lots of things going on in this movie. A plotline with the adults and a plotline with the "teens." It all eventually comes to a head in the climax that was alluded to in the opening scene. Not even joking, but the villain reveal and monologue happened so fast, I thought I missed something. This was just not a good movie. I hope the next time Lifetime does this plot, they flesh it out a little more.
