(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Lies My Mother Told Me / Widow on the Hill (DVD)

This was one of the best lifetime type dramas I have seen. It is also one of the most disturbing. The behavior of this woman unsettled me so that I have been trying to find out what the final conclusion was on the internet. I have been unsucessful thus far. I know of other situations in real life where a spouse was accused of murdering (or attempting to murder) their wife/husband...one of which happened down the street from me (von Bulow in the 1980's) yet this is more chilling.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Lies My Mother Told Me / Widow on the Hill (DVD)

This is such a great movie but ends so sad. I saw it on Lifetime today and at the end I was crying so hard it was kind of making me sick. The best thing about this movie is you know that this woman really really loves her daughter. Great movie.
