[edit] Plot
Claire Cooper (Annette Bening) is a suburban housewife and mother, who illustrates children's stories and is married to a busy airline pilot (played by Aidan Quinn). Her perfect world begins to unravel, when she finds herself immersed in a world of pain and psychosis following the disappearance and brutal murder of her daughter. Throughout the movie, Claire is haunted by her daughter's murderer, a cross-dressing serial killer of children named Vivian Thompson (Robert Downey, Jr.) and she has several visions of what murders he commits next. When all the doctors she sees think she is psychotic, Claire is committed to a mental institution. When she receives a vision of Vivian kidnapping another child, she escapes to track him down and stop him from killing again.
