Bermuda Grace Explained

Bermuda Grace is a 1994 American television film directed by Mark Sobel. A comedy thriller, it stars William Sadler and David Harewood. This buddy cop comedy was also considered a backdoor pilot for potential series, however the high production cost of an ongoing series in Bermuda made that impossible.[1] It also featured Serena Scott Thomas, Andrew Jackson, Leslie Phillips and Cliff Parisi. The film was written and produced by William Davies and William Osborne, writers of the feature film Twins.

Plot

A Philadelphia policeman and a British policeman jointly hunt a jewel thief to the Atlantic island of Bermuda.

Production

The film was shot on location in Bermuda.[2] [3]

Reception

The film was found "short on suspense, originality and zip"[4] [5] by Variety, but a Bermuda travel guide calls it ”a charming ode to modern-day Bermuda and its people. "[6]
