Anthia R. (hepburn05) from CANBY, CA wrote on 10/5/2009...

I think this story was really good. I thought the actress who played the part of the main character did a good job. I have read the book several times and for the most part it stuck right to the story line, except for the very end.. The fact that this is a true story makes it more interesting. If the movie had shown everything this woman went through, it would probably be too rough for some to watch, so although they played down alot of the rough spots, it is well worth watching.
