A Case of Rape on AllMovie

A surprisingly good made for TV movie, though tending toward the melodramatic, it is perhaps understandable that this should happen considering the subject matter of the movie. When a middle-aged homemaker reports that she has been raped, she is essentially again raped by the society and support groups she should have been able to count on to help her. The police, medical personnel, court system, and even her husband all conspire to somehow make her feel guilty for her own rape. Sensitively performed by Elizabeth Montgomery, it is a depiction of a real problem that faces women who decide to report when attacked.
