A scary and sad true story

Rating: 9/10 (26 November 2005)

At the same time I find this movie very sad, and even scary when you think it's based in a real story, I also find it a great masterpiece and also very moving. Aileen Wuornos is a prostitute from Daytona Beach who become one of the most famous serial killers of United States, and the first female serial killer as well. Her story is so tragic, that we stay moved even she being a killer: Abandoned by her mother,her father died in prison(psychopathic child molester ), she was molested as a kid (8 years old) as well, she started to be a prostitute at 13,became pregnant at 14 (needing to give her kid away for adoption) and things ended with Aileen's love, Selby,even being cold and insensitive with her in Court, acting like she never liked Aileen. With so many problems, I could not be surprise for this woman be so desperate for love, and entering in a life of drugs and crime.
