One of the most beautiful and disturbing films I have ever seen

Rating: 10/10 (25 April 2006)

Wow, Patty Jankins did a wonderful job of setting the enviorment of a psychotic woman. It is a sad story which made me weep and cry as I watched the tale unravel. Christina Ricci once again dominates and shocks the world with her talented acting yet the one who did the greatest job is Charlize Theron as Aileen. I also give a hand to the make-up department because they made Ricci very young (like a teenager) and Theron VERY, VERY OLD and decrypted (She 49 years old, and she was in her thirties!!) I hope Jankins moves to do more films like this and I highly recommend this film. I normally do not like true-story crime movies, but this movie made me appreciate them more. Like I said, the atmosphere is perfect and FINALLY THE Oscars GOT IT RIGHT!
