A sports biopic, but definitely not a boring one.

Rating: 9/10 (19 June 2020)

For those who aren't aware, Margo Robbie used to be in the Australian soap opera, Neighbours (which is more popular in the UK, or at least, it used to be 10 or 20 years ago.)
Anyway, I bloody loved it and still watched it well into my 20s like a weirdo (and got back into it when I had my first baby in my 30s). Margot Robbie played an aspiring fashion designer called Donna (short for Donatella, of course) and I loved her to bits. She had a boyfriend called Ringo who was a bit of a drip and he got killed in a car crash right after they got married age 17.
Sorry - this isn't a review for Neighbours. Anyway, I actually had no idea she was playing the titular character of this film until about 10 minutes in - that's how good she was. Everyone was good in this film.
I knew nothing about the film and only hazily recalled the whole Harding/Kerrigan 'incident' so it was quite a fresh story to me, and told in such a clever way with so many little blink-and-you'll-miss-it type shots and tricks. I've not seen a film so engrossing in quite a while and has certainly made me want to check out other work directed by Gillespie.
