Supercharged with emotion and dramatic overtones.

Variety
Rating: 3/5 --
The performances of the principals and the film's naturalistic dialogue are more memorable than the story itself.

Rating: C --
Suffers from a slight soap opera story that fails to hold together for 98 minutes.

Product Description:
Sydney Pollack's directorial debut deals with a woman, played by Anne Bancroft, who takes an overdose of sleeping pills and calls a crisis clinic for help. A college volunteer (Sidney Poitier) tries to keep her on the phone while a rescue crew attempts to track her down. THE SLENDER THREAD, a moving, emotionally gripping drama, was based on a true story. The film provides room for a moving display of talent from two of Hollywood's premier actors.
