T and Jen play the game of truth asking each other questions until he asks whether they plan to rob him. Jen says she is no longer sure, but that was the plan while Les says he needs the car and money with T out of the way. T knows he must at least ditch Les who sounds increasingly desperate as they drive the seemingly isolated road. Confrontation is coming, but who will walk away as T relishes the adrenalin that has awakened inside him for the first time since his marriage legally ended.
WOLF POINT is a terrific thriller that stars three protagonists who on the ride form an intriguing triangle that keeps the audience in suspense wondering when the seemingly inevitable altercation will occur. The story line mostly happens inside the Rover yet the suspense is stratospherically high and keeps growing because the audience slowly understands the demons that eat at each of the key players. Edward Falco provides a terrific thriller sort of mindful of Spielberg’s Duel except that the audience knows all the adversaries up front and personal.
