With a title that sums up the plot, the made-for-TV movie 'Framed for Murder' is suitably generic and uninspired to fill the space between prime time slots.
June Baldwin (Elisa Donovan) spends eight years in prison for the murder of her adulterous husband Tony (Donovan Reiter). When she is released, she is determined to find the killer who framed her.
While she is staying with her wealthy and ostensibly caring sister Claire (Susan Walters) she hires a private detective, Diane Desalvo (Lisa Langlois), to help her track down the killer. As she gets closer to finding the culprit however, things begin to go wrong — her bipolar medication begins to falter and those involved in the investigation are suddenly found dead.
It takes her a little while, but June eventually realises that the person who framed her for the murder of her husband is trying to do it again.
Everything about this movie is mediocre — the plot, the screenwriting and the acting. You could do worse, but for a more sophisticated and gripping version of this theme, hunt around for the Ashley Judd thriller 'Double Jeopardy'.
