A truly great movie, but older and hard to find.

Can't even find a trailer for it, but if you can get a copy, it's well worth watching.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0443518/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

Originally an HBO made for TV movie.

If you run across a copy in a thrift store or movie rental place (if those still exist) do yourself a favor and watch it. (I received the DVD as a Christmas gift)

(Hint: If you're not convinced, read the reviews on IMDb)

Thought you might want to mention that in your post, instead of making us click on the link to find out what it's called.
