Jerome P @TravisBickle100 Dec 12 Judy Davis turns in one of her all time best performances here - earning her an Emmy nomination. The character she portrays is an all-out sociopathic grifter of monstrous proportions, and Davis attacks the part with unrestrained zeal, yielding acts so audacious that you can't help but laugh at her brazenness. This twisted true story itself is amazing. If you're at all into true crime, this is a must see. See more 05/14/2012 Very bizarre mother and son relationship. That woman was BEYOND crazy and annoying. I felt bad for the son that he had to put up with his crazy ass mother. See more 05/09/2010 Not a bad film. Not anything great either, but Judy Davis was divine as always. See more 01/28/2009 Horrible that this is based on a true story See more Read all reviews
