It was entertaining. Note that 'based' on a true story means that there is likely to be a broad artistic license in play. Wasn't a true story nor a documentary.Those 'critics' above need to get over themselves. I met Miriam Weeks at Exxxotica New Jersey in 2014 and she was pleasant, intelligent and was running her booth like the other seasoned stars there. No story there for a movie, please note. I rated this movie a 7 because it was fun to watch and worth my time to do so. Anyone who watches Lifetime and expects more than this is misguided.
First i thought it would be a great adult film but a less exposure and lots of unsatisfied terms cause a death for movie. I have seen quite good horror and porn movies but this one is disaster as well as horrible. fully staisfied with this comment "I'll admit the movie was still fruits enjoyable despite the off putting premise but at the same time it promotes this pretentious idea that doing porn is a completely normal thing to do and that's it's even "empowering ". Why is that women these days seem to think every screwed up action they take is in some way empowering or beneficial towards their gender I'll never know ."
This is just another one of those made for TV movies that twists the truth as much as humanly possible to get you to feel sorry for the main focus, she was not a straight A down to earth catholic girl by any sense of the word, she was quite the opposite with serious mental problems who took to cutting to deal with it, had they stuck with her real life story it might have been an interesting watch, but as always lifetime has to make the women out to be innocent and weak, it ruined what could have been an interesting true story with another pointless waste of time.
Don't bother watching this whether you are a huge fan of hers or never heard of her before, because either way you'll just be getting lied to throughout and come out believing she is someone she most definitely is not.

This movie goes to show how judgemental people can be along with just being nasty. The real shocker is the women are worse than men. That being said I loved this movie. The story, character's and directing were great. Nice to see Judd Nelson to. I love the fact that bella stands up for herself and the message that she delivers in the 3rd act. This is a great message to send to women especially younger girls to be who are and do what you want to do when it comes to your body. Great movie, great message definitely check it out.
I disliked this movie for Many reasons but mainly young girls are very impressionable and to give the overall message that it's okay to sell your body to men and be recorded is so wrong. Women and men are so different and everywhere you look women are being told that they are the same as men and that couldn't be more wrong! Men will Never take a woman serious if she decides to go be in adult industry. Anyways the movie sucked and I can't believe this is what is being marketed to young women! If you ever want to be married and have a family one day don't sell your soul you will regret that you did for a little money...

- GoofsJolie's accent is typical of that of a native of the southern United States, but it is rare for a person from New Orleans or anywhere in south Louisiana to have such an accent. The "southern" accent is common for people from north Louisiana, which is more like the rest of the south than south Louisiana, where many people have French ancestry.
