'Betrayal' (1974) -  Gordon Hessler.

Betrayal is an above average 70s TV thriller by experienced genre filmmaker Gordon 'Cry of The Banshee' Hessler. The capable cast's performances are all peachy, and Hessler does a credible job mounting all the essential Hitchcockian tensions. Bravo!! Like one of the perpetrator's more corpulent victims, 'Betrayal' is a trifle soft in the belly, but I found it to be consistently entertaining. Veteran composer, Ernest Gold's lush score is a slick complement, and as a wholly gratuitous aside, the deliciously devious Gretchen (Tisha Sterling) is one smoking hot, lean cuisine tamale! This classy 1974 ABC movie-of-the-week gem remains a quality time-eater for vintage thriller fans of all ages! As a final thought, Tisha Sterling & Amanda Blake have great chemistry, generating far more sympathy for their predicament than one might expect.
