Obviously in an effort to get younger viewers to tune in to what would be considered their grandparent's show, the writers of this Perry Mason TV movie brought in a Madonna lookalike. But Heather McAdam
only compares to looks and a similar image in videos that she's appearing in, facing scandal at her wedding when she emerges from a room with blood all over her like a virgin dress, and uncle Perry (Raymond Burr) agrees to defend her.
The aide of long time assistant Barbara Hale and partner William R. Moses helps along with the case which adds on an unpossesssd Linda Blair, Ronny Cox, Diane Baker and Paul Dooley. I found the case after a while rather tedious and found it easy to drift off after a promising weekend. The efforts to make Perry Mason cool isn't a complete bust, but it drags far too much, and even the Perry/Della scenes lack in the spark of others in the TV film series.
