    "Black Widow" starring Debra Winger, Theresa Russell, Diane Ladd, and Dennis Hopper is a very good mystery/thriller.
    Debra Winger is a very talented actress and is very good as the reporter in this film. Winger is the career driven reporter looking into a woman that possibly has married several wealthy men and killed them all for the money....very well done and worth watching.

    My film class taught me that there's a bunch of psychological subtext. Fine, but it feels like a dated, mostly tame thriller with some cool momments. See: the awesome kiss-of-death scene.

    One of those "erotic thrillers" that Russell was famous (used loosely) for. Seem to recall this being not exactly terrible, but far from Oscar-worthy.

    Thriller. Analyst played by Debra Winger stumbles over the anomaly that there are old rich entrepreneurs suddenly dying of unknown causes after shortly marrying a younger woman. Debra leaves her job to track down what she has now found as the very same woman re-marrying and moving on to another after being left each fortune. Good story liine and good parts played by Debra Winger and Theresa Russell. Not a huge movie but worth spending an hour for a tale of The Black Widow wife !!

    awesome mystery/drama! Loved the action. At times a little too realistic, but otherwise, really good.
