A wonderfully adapted film!!
This is such a great movie to watch and all the actors put together a great film which would be enjoyed by everyone! It is very emotional in parts, so when you watch it grab a box of tissues to keep you company!! This movie doesn't deserve a rating below 10/10!
This movie is about a true story but it's told wrong.
The woman this movie is about is Corine Miller and no she was not a good person. She was a raging alcoholic who mistreated everyone including her own children. She never felt bad about what she did to the little boy (in the real life it was a little boy not a girl). She was just mad she had to do time in prison for it. She was pretty and presented well so people assumed she was decent because she was middle class. She ended up drinking herself to death. She was just really involved in both her daughters schools. Daughters she ended up abandoning. She was an abusive drunk that my dad divorced. He stayed in contact with her daughters though. They actually asked her to be extra in this movie but she declined. It happened in Atascadero California in the early 90's or late 80's. You can look it
up because the court records are public.
You better think twice!
I heard that this movie was going to be on and wondered what it was about. It was all about a mom who hits a little girl early on and through a series of events, learns that she made a mistake. At first she helps the little girl but when she goes for help, she comes back to see and hear people talking about what kind of a horrible person would leave someone lying at the side of the road like that. She goes home and is frightened half to death about what just happened. She tries to tell her husband but he doesn't listen to her. It's a good movie that makes you learn to be more accountable for your actions! I liked Lisa Vidal's character of Detective Rico in this movie. She adds more to the movie I think.

Awesome
Just watched this film on TV and it was awesome.
had just planned on watching it whilst doing some work however i ended up watching the whole film with out doing work as it was so good!
Actors my not be very well know but the story line makes up for it. the fact that the actors make are less well known only makes it more believable that the events could occur. i did not feel a biased towards one character as i have no judgement of the types of character as i have never seen any of the actors in a film before which made it even more enjoyable.
would recommend watching it.

Lifetime movie classic.
Seen years ago & recently rewatched..
Joanna did wrong however with a spouse & friends like that,honestly can you blame her? Superficial,conditional and fake.
The life she had seemed like a performance,as if she displayed cracks it somehow fell negatively on her.
When the movie began she was coloring her hair,when her husband called out she quickly buried the box in the trash.
Her spouse took vows including in bad times they had years together,kids,was a great wife,mom & friend.. Yet everyone turned instantly,as though it was a stranger.
Sure forgiving might of took time but if you look at her legal punishment,sad the detective & courts found less fault in her actions.
I think the husband cared more about his life,image,work & she just had to make things easy for him.. Doing parties,etc.
Towards the movies end you see that she dressed more casual & no longer colored her hair,allowed herself to be just who she is.
Casting,acting,cinematography was nicely done.
Was it clichéd? Sure.
This was decent or back when Lifetime,knew how to make quality movies.
Worth viewing it,if you never have.
