NOTES A man who appears from nowhere (Fraser) is taken under the wing of a sexy blonde (Judd) who flaunts herself in front of him. The woman's partner has gone away and she doesn't know when he will return.

This man, Darkly Noon, has been brought up by parents who

have severe and strict religious beliefs. Darkly Noon lusts

after the woman, Callie, and this causes great conflict inside

him. He speaks with a stutter and has difficulty expressing

himself.

The boyfriend returns and on the surface things go allright.

But the boyfriend does not speak. In fact he appears to have

no means of communication except for a few hand gestures.

There is no given explanation for this.

Tensions arise as Darkly Noon cannot cope with his lust for

Callie and he slowly loses control.

Good performances.
