The Perfect Nanny

Customer Reviews:

Intense Thriller.......2003-07-30

After being released from a mental institution, a typical borderline psychopath poses as a nanny in an attempt to form a perfect life with a handsom man. But she becomes dangerously jealous as her delusional dreams begin to crumble. Her escalating erratic behavior turns violent as she wrecks havoc on the household. Lots of action and suspense and a very intense plot. If you're into thillers like "Fatal Attraction", "The Hand That Rocks The Cradle", "Hush", etc. Then you should definatly see this one.

Wonderful schlocky entertainment!.......2001-11-08

This is one of best best "bad" movies I have ever seen. Bruce Boxleitner is as wooden as a cigar-store Indian, while Tracy Nelson's screen-chewing performance as a psycho nanny rivals anything Sir Laurence Olivier ever committed to celluloid. Dana Barron also stands out, actually because she's a very good young actress with a great career ahead of her (if there's any justice in the world). Seriously, this film is so awful and cliched and gross that it's impossible not to love. Everyone seems to be having a good time revelling in the muck; you should too!

Judith Warner got the idea for her book, "Perfect Madness" when she came back from five years in France where she and her husband were both working as journalists and where both of her children were born. Warner was struck by how hard it was to recreate the life she had in France, where she found affordable, flexible, and high-quality child care, so she was able to work as much or as little as she wanted. That got her thinking about other things she found hard when she moved back to the U.S.: Why did American women seem so competitive with each other? Why were middle-class kids being raced from activity to activity? Why did so many women - who seemed to have it all -- seem so depressed and angry? The Nightline episode includes a piece about Warner's book and Ted's interview with Judith Warner and three other mothers who talk about their own "perfect madness."
