Close, Bridges in murder-mystery
In “Jagged Edge,” which will start at the Regent tomorrow, a beautiful and wealthy San Francisco newspaper heiress is savagely slain at the secluded beach house she shared with her husband (Jeff Bridges), who is the publisher and editor-in-chief of the city’s leading family-owned daily.
It has all the earmarks of a ritual killing. The word, “bitch,” was scrawled in her own blood above the bed where she was tied and brutalised. The maid was dead too.
The police find the husband dazed, apparently beaten with a blunt instrument by the assailants. In shock, he is rushed to the hospital. The cause of death was obvious: the victims died of multiple stab wounds inflicted with what appeared to be a hunting knife — the kind with a serrated, jagged edge. Glenn Close appears as the husband’s defence lawyer in this psychological - mystery - thriller, which also stars Peter Coyote and Robert Loggia.
