The Girl in the Bathtub

I love Caitlin but I don't think the movie is giving justice to the actual Julia Law. The was it's being director is similar to desperate housewife, where we hear Julia's voice talking about her death. Shame!

I'm not sure if it was the format of this film, or the lack of substance. It reeked of a cheap old straight to television film. I struggled to make the distance on this one, but held in hoping it would get better, but it failed to deliver on so many ways. Don't get me wrong, the acting was quite good, but I feel it could have been made so much better.

It would have been good if there had been some back ground on the young woman involved to be able to see what lead her up to having the problems she was having with addiction.

I will not be recommending this one to friends.

I don't understand the 5.5 stars, this was a compelling story about the realities of why people make the choices they do. People are very judgemental of her lifestyle but so was she. Always remember, people are doing the best they can.

I know nothing about the real case inspiring this film.

I appreciate the effort of Catlin Stasey to propose a reasonable portrait of Julia. But the film seems propose , in some measure, a too large webb.

Sure, loneliness, opportunities, refugies in alcohol and sentimental relations are good themes, not so bad used in this case.

The problem can be the unconvincing story and the not just inspired final reminding more a sort of compromise.

A portrait of life after the death is temptanting , no doubts, but not easy to craft. Exactly this is the serious problem. The result, expression of noble intentions, is not exactly bad but far to be a convincing one.

Watched this TV movie on Netflix. My expectations weren't high but it was pretty well written and the lead actress Caitlin Stasey is to say the least beguiling. A good little film.
