Editorial Reviews

Two distinctly different women. Two very separate struggles. One united fight.

Sybil Goldrich (Mary McDonnell, DONNIE DARKO, DANCES WITH WOLVES), a wealthy California mother was suddenly diagnosed with breast cancer. Kathleen Anneken (Gail O’Grady, AMERICAN DREAMS, NYPD BLUE), a middle class mom from Kansas was terribly unhappy with her breast size. Both consulted doctors. Both received silicone implants. And both became extremely ill. Together, they led a fierce battle to change the country.

After being ignored, mistreated and disregarded – Sybil and Kathleen formed a partnership that saw them through FDA hearings, congressional battles, and their own personal struggles. Sybil’s implants ruptured and Kathleen suffered from severe depression.

The enemy was Dow Corning. The impossible task was proving it. From speaking out to live audiences to appearing on national television – their cries were not enough. The incriminating information they needed was in one lawyer’s hands. But, could Sybil and Kathleen get him to fight hard enough to win the case? The answer was "yes."

Dow Corning was forced to file for bankruptcy. And the two small voices of Sybil Goldrich and Kathleen Anneken continued to make themselves heard. But they weren’t so small anymore.

5.0 out of 5 stars The saga continues..., October 8, 2007

This is a wonderful FACT based story on the history of breast implants that were never approved by the FDA. It is the story of greedy manufacturers that hide the real scientific facts so that they can continue to make the almighty dollar. They seem not to care that often they are causing devastating ill health among unsuspecting patients. Unfortunately we are 12 years out since this movie aired, and the battle for a SAFE breast implant continues.

I recently watched this movie and found it to be an excellent movie. Both Mary McDonnell and Gail O'Grady were superb. I always thought Mary McDonnell was a great actress, but the character she played in this movie showed all the more her acting abilites. I felt this movie helped to shed some light on the continuing problems plagued by women in the world. It showed that you don't have to be quiet like a mouse and that you can stand up for your rights! Worth buying.

Saw this movie from Netflix. I enjoyed it. Worth watching for information on breast implants in the 80's or 90's. Decent acting and story.
