Acting on Impulse is a 1993 film starring Linda Fiorentino, Nancy Allen and C. Thomas Howell. The film, which is also known under the alternate titles Secret Lives and Eyes of a Stranger, premiered at the Seattle International Film Festival on June 3, 1993[1] before being broadcast by Showtime on July 10, 1993.[2] Adam Ant, Isaac Hayes, Zelda Rubinstein and Dick Sargent, in his last role, make cameo appearances.[3]
Critical response
The Kansas City Star called Acting on Impulse "perverse fun"[4] while Entertainment Weekly noted it as an "inevitable goofball thriller" saying of the ensemble, "The best bits here are the ones that seem to be going nowhere—the scenes of Fiorentino, C. Thomas Howell, and Nancy Allen drunkenly goofing around are simultaneously relaxed and fraught with sexual tension."[5]
