An able cast and good direction drive this compelling two-part TV miniseries based on famed attorney Vincent Bugliosi's non-fiction book, which describes both the crime and the trial (he represented the defendants). More than anything else, it's the story itself that will keep your eyes glued to the screen for three hours. A yuppie couple sail to an isolated mid-Pacific island. Later, so does a hippie couple. After that, the hippie couple are arrested in Honolulu in possession of the yuppies' boat and a weak story. Investigation does not turn up the yuppies, their bodies, or the hippies' boat. Some time later, back at the island, a box washes onshore that contains the bones of the yuppie woman. The details are too numerous and mystifying to list but pay close attention, you'll find it not only entertainment, but also a challenge: What really happened? Who did it?
This puzzle will haunt you, keep popping back into your mind, long after the movie ends.
