Between Love and Hate is a 1993 American television movie directed by Rod Hardy.

Background

Between Love and Hate was the ninth TV movie Lucci appeared in.[1] Her role, a seductive married mother, was compared by several reviewers to Erica Kane, her famous role on the soap opera All My Children.[2] Lucci said she took the role because of the "page-turner" script.[3]

Plot

Matt, a 19-year-old swimming coach at a country club, who is a virgin, has an affair with Vivian, a married mother in her forties whose daughter is taking classes with him.

When her husband Justin finds out about the affair after finding the couple's love letters, Vivian is forced to end it, upsetting Matt. This results in a chain of reactions from photocopying of love letters leading up to Matt shooting her dead.

Cast

Critical reception

The Chicago Tribune was somewhat positive on the film, writing that Lucci was "pretty good in her part."[4] The Calgary Herald panned the film: as "an amateurish knockoff of The Graduate.
