Duet for Eight Wheels (aka Ordeal)

Paraplegic (Inger Stevens) tries to help Jim Redigo accept his fate when he is paralyzed by a fall and faces a wheelchair existence. Richard Egan does a particularly fine job with Jim Redigo here. He makes you believe in the paralysis he suffers from a stomping bout with a wild horse, and convinces you he'll fight his incapacity to the limit of his will. The script itself is tightly written and credible, except for a bit of romantic soap opera at the close, but Inger Stevens gives him superb support in the role of a beautiful, if disciplined paraplegic.
