Love it or hate it, RECKLESS is a distinctive gloss on "Candide," casting waif Mia Farrow adrift against a sinister American landscape. Written and directed by the team of Craig Lucas and Norman Rene (LONGTIME COMPANION, PRELUDE TO A KISS), it's a dark comedy rooted in an off-kilter
vision of modern family life. Farrow plays a blissfully contented housewife whose Christmas Eve is ruined when her husband (Tony Goldwin) confesses he's hired a hitman to kill her. She flees into the pristine suburban snow and is rescued by sympathetic social worker Scott Glenn and his paraplegic,
deaf-mute wife Mary-Louise Parker. Once again, Rachel discovers things aren't as they seem...
