Remick called Matlin " a wonderful actress. She's so open and kind of instinctive and free . . . curious. It was an interesting experience, which I had some concern about. When I started I thought, you know, what's it going to be like for the two of us to communicate? I do not have sign language at my beck and call. But we did. It was terrific."

The movie was filmed in Toronto and directed by Karen Arthur. It was the first time Remick had worked with a female director. "Interesting working with a woman," she said. "Not that it's different in terms of her work, she's doing the same thing as men do, but I've just never been in that position. Directors have always been kind of father figures. It's interesting. It's wonderful. She's terrific."TV movies offer actress a variety of roles: [FIN Edition]
