Holly Hunter in An Uncommon Love 1983
“An Uncommon Love” focuses on a woman who goes to school by day and works in a massage parlor by night. Holly didn’t play the lead in this television movie; that plum part went to Kathryn Harrold. Hunter has the supporting role, the coworker and best friend at the massage parlor. There is a subplot where associates of her boyfriend beat up Holly’s character. That makes Kathryn’s character question whether she should continue in this line of work, as she is also involved with a new man.
