...parallel story line, Janie's best friend Harriet Cornwall (Sumalee Gunanukorn), a Harvard M.B.A., climbs the corporate ladder at Colgate-Palmolive while she is sleeping with her boss's boss, Paul Stuart, who is married. Paul (Aaron Zelman) is suitably unctuous. Harriet is ambitious and serves well as the straight woman for many of the jokes on Yiddish pronunciation that had the Loeb Ex audience laughing out loud at the play. Claire Ellis turns in a convincing performance as the corporate achiever Lillian Cornwall, Harriet's motn. Bill Selig and Mark Fish were both serviceable in their supporting roles...

...POINT OF NO RETURN. It's a remake of an unimprovably stylish, very entertaining thriller -- La Femme Nikita -- that was released just two years ago. But hey, that was in French. Why not let people who hate subtitles in on the fun? Bridget Fonda is a sort of Dirty Harriet, a reprieved murderer turned into an elegant assassin by a mysterious government agency. She and her handler (Gabriel Byrne) fall into unconsummated love. She sublimates with gunplay while growing wistful for normality. John Badham's film seems to have more firepower and slightly softer edges than the original...
