Tonya Harding gets her chance to tell her side of the story

Rating: 8/10 (22 January 2018)

1/21/18. Saw this today in the theater and it was worth seeing on the big screen. Janney and Robbie were phenomenal as the dysfunctional mother-daughter act that basically ruined the life of Tonya Harding. The movie was well-done and tried to make sense of the messed up memories of everyone involved with the clubbing of Nancy Kerrigan. While Harding was not viewed as an American sweetheart, she was very much a child of America's heartland, home of the working class. It was hard watching Harding being continuously abused by her mother and then her husband, but this is her story. Despite it all, Harding was a talented skater who never got the break that would have put her up where she belonged - the winner's circle. Worth catching. Hopefully, Robbie and Janney will get some recognition during movie awards time for their portrayals.
