One of my all time favorites.
Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
It would take only an emotional bond as this one depicted in the film that could make this a film at all.The premise is good that a young woman, with 2 failed marriages and a tendency to land into trouble, bonds with her daughter as the two flee for 9 years.It is only the love that the girl had for her wayward mother, this would allow her to stay with her bad mother. When the girl got older, she could have left but she didn't.The picture begins to go awry when the mother, Joely Richardson, marries an attorney. When their marriage goes southward, she kills him. It appeared that the guy had 9 lives by the way that at the beginning she can't kill him, no matter what she does. This really became silly. The ending is not, but you probably knew that this was coming.
this is an 'inspired by true events' movie.it's a bleak movie,to be blunt about it.it's about a woman who had done nothing but lie cheat and steal her whole life.as a result her and her young daughter live a life on the run from the law. i found this movie slow and boring for the most part.it doesn't have a happy ending,(at least to me it doesn't)like some movies of this genre have.and it doesn't resolve anything or tie up any loose ends,like i hoped it would.i only kept watching for two reasons.one was the hope that there might be a happy ending.tow was that the acting was pretty decent.so,basically the movie is only worth watching for the performances.as a result,my vote for Lies My Mother Told Me is a 4/10
This movie was excellent. I just bought the d.v.d. Thursday night. Costumes, acting, production, script, directing, and photography is great. I give this movie 10 out of 10 stars.The mother, Lara, was a self-centered, rotten, spoiled brat who did whatever she wanted, whenever she wanted, and had no consideration for the welfare of others. She stole people's id's, killed her husband, and betrayed her family. She deserved what she got in the end. The slaps on the wrists she got before obviously did not teach her a lesson.Kudos to the cast, crew, and filmmakers. Two Thumbs Way Up! Excellent Movie!
As I was looking through novels on amazon,I came across a story that sounded like this movie. I believe that this movie may be based on the book titled: COLD BLOODED by CARTON SMITH. Although the names in the book are different ,it sounds like it could be the same story. I have not read the book yet but it seems like a good read. I'm not sure how much of thew movie stays with the book but from what I did read I saw no mention of a daughter. So I don't know if that was added or what for movie purposes. I thought this movie was good though.This is one of those movies that you might like to watch on a Friday night or a rainy Saturday relaxed in front of the t.v.
