Featured review
Powerful Performance by McGuire Makes This a Solid, Action Film
Powerfully performed and acted by Dorothy McGuire. The plot seems like it will be simplistic, but you are in for a surprise.
Invitation is another of Hollywood's tales told from the rich man's perspective (weren't they all?) but this one has some guts to it and a solid performance by McGuire.
