When she catches him with another woman, she leaves him, but her roommates Kim (Lara Harris) and Sharon (Tracy Griffith) instead bind him in Linda's apartment and seek revenge for his wandering ways. Eventually Brian finally realizes the depth of his love for Linda, but will he be able to convince her of his sincerity?

Description

Fate converges in the small town of Chester, North Carolina, and three lives will never be the same as a result. Quitting her New York real estate job, Megan Margulius (Teri Hatcher) heads south to try to rekindle a romance with her long-distance fiance Craig (Daniel Green). Entertainment lawyer Roy Kline (Robert C. Treveiler) is headed the same direction, returning to the childhood home he resents at the request of his dying mother. And Kenny McGruff (Gil Johnson) is drunkenly celebrating his new-found riches from a lottery win. Barely able to walk, Kenny wanders into the street and is killed in an accident involving his best friend and both Megan and Ray. This draws the two together, along with Kenny's widow Jessie (Andrea Powell) and her clairvoyant son Charlie (Cody Newton), into a circumstance of mutual need. But more than that, it's almost as if they were subconsciously waiting for each another — perfect strangers with the good luck to converge in one of the most trying periods of their lives. In their journey their pasts and futures are bound together through forgiveness and discovery, and most of all love.

Amature night at the movies.......2006-04-08

A boring badly made movie that makes Elizabeth town look good

Touch of Fate -- Going Back to the Basics of Moviemaking.......2006-01-20

In an era when US movie screens are increasingly dominated by male-targeted flicks featuring explosions, violence, and special effects, it is a pleasure to see a US film that focuses on the "traditional" basics of film-making: dialogue and character development. This is not a big-budget movie, so don't expect to see lush million-dollar sets and aerial camera tracking shots. However, you may find yourself being moved emotionally by the story of two late thirty-something-year olds whose lives cross paths during a late-night traffic accident. A woman from New York City has come to a small town in North Carolina hoping to join her fiancée, and a stressed-out businessman from Los Angeles has come to visit his elderly mother. After the accident, they get to know each other. As you learn about their family and personal struggles and aspirations, you become engaged in their lives.

Wonderful Heartfelt Movie.......2006-01-03

A great old fashioned romantic movie.

Fate, Destiny, Happenstance: Keys to a Lovely, Quiet little Film.......2005-11-10

TOUCH OF FATE is not one of the big Indie movies successes, nor is it a theatrical release that garnered wide audiences. Instead it is a quiet film about fate bonding people who are blindly searching for connection. Writer/director Rebecca Cook knows how to weave an intricate story into a canvas that is, well, luminous - and she does this without the usual hoopla of big name stars or expensive locations settings.

Coincidence or fate like a magnet draws the lives of three people into a bond created by a tragedy: a woman (Teri Hatcher) returns to her small North Carolina town in hopes of reclaiming a love (Daniel Green), an entertainment lawyer (Robert C. Treveiler) returns home out of guilt to his dying mother having attempted to escape his past for years, and a clairvoyant boy (Cody Newton) struggles with the sudden and tragic death of his father and overbearing love of his single mother. These individually needy people find succor in circumstances that hold lesson of coping with need, and finding forgiveness with the power of love.

Simple story, well written, and directed with control and care by Cook. Yet the genuine surprise of this film is the ensemble acting by a cast of fine actors. Teri Hatcher has a following for 'Desperate Housewives' but here she proves that she is truly a fine actress whose face communicates as much inner turmoil and emotion as the entire script. She is worth watching and the film deserves more attention. Grady Harp, November 05
