Alistair Olson After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Desertman84 Love, Lies, and Murder is a TV miniseries that features Clancy Brown, Sheryl Lee, Moira Kelly, Tom Bower, John Ashton, and Cynthia Nixon.The miniseries was four hours long and aired on NBC in two parts.It was directed by Robert Markowitz.This is a chilling mini-series based on the 1985 true story of David A. Brown, a computer whiz, who orchestrated his wife,Linda Brown's murder with the help of two trusting but totally manipulated teenage girls.He masterminded this bizarre murder plot by luring his 14-year-old step daughter and 17-year-old sister-in-law into the cold-blooded shooting of his wife. As the lies are peeled away, layer after layer, his sinister web of treachery, deceit, and manipulation is finally shattered in a hailstorm of staggering revelations.When police investigate, the stepdaughter confesses to the killing. This closes the case when David marries his late wife's sister, and doubts begin to stir as to whether or not the stepdaughter was coerced into confessing.The gripping tale of an almost perfect murder and an unflinching portrait of a terrifying killer.Also,it was an unforgettable look at one of the most shocking crimes and it proves once and for all that fact is sometimes truly stranger than fiction.It may not be the best TV mini- series ever shown but it certainly is unforgettable.
BreanneB I liked this movie, which is based on a shocking and chilling true story. Knowing that this really happened sends chills up my spine. David Brown is a manipulative, evil, liar, and murderer who masterminded and had his daughter and sister-in-law carry out the murder of his wife Linda Brown.It all started when they overheard Linda talking on the phone and saying that she wanted to kill David. That's when David plotted her murder. Even though Patty pulled the trigger Cinnamon took the fall for it because they knew she would do less time then Patty and David.But later the truth eventually does come out and David and Patty are charged, convicted, and sentenced as well. Cinnamon and Patty are done serving their time but David will remain prison forever. He's at Folsom State Prison in California.
wexler2 If this movie were not based on a true story I wouldn't have believed the plot. However, knowing it is base on truth I definitely would recommend watching this for a lazy afternoon movie! This is one truly dysfunctional family, starting with the living arrangements David had with his second wife, her younger sister and Cinammon (the daughter from a previous marriage.)The character of Cinammon did a great job and made her role very believable. From the start when she confessed to the murder of her step-mother, all the way to the ending.This is my first review so I am afraid to write too much as I don't want to give away too much information, but I do recommend it, especially for people that love true crime drama's! I hope this review is somewhat helpful.
JANEICE This movie holds your interest from start to finish. The whole time I am watching this movie I was just in utter disbelief that these events actually happened. Again, the truth is always much more entertaining than fiction. Worth a look see.
