Testament (Imprint Collection #170)
There are errands to run, laundry to sort, piano lessons to tackle. But an ordinary day like any other ends abruptly with a startling TV news bulletin, followed moments later by a blinding flash. With her husband away and her three frightened children gathered around her, Carol Wetherly (Jane Alexander) must face the unthinkable the devastating aftermath of a nuclear attack.
Critic Reviews:
- " Towering over every other performance is Jane Alexander's Carol Wetherly. It is a side of Alexander that no one has caught before, not even in her finest work. " – Sheila Benson (Los Angeles Times)
- " It's a simple and resourceful film and one that has been made with unmistakable conviction. " – Janet Maslin (New York Times)
- " It is shattering, devastating and unforgettable. Jane Alexander deserves an Oscar for her performance as the mother of the family. " – Bernard Drew (Gannett News Service)
