first movie in a week
I'm not sure why but it's been a week since I've seen a movie.
The Robber Bride (Made-for-TV, 2007)
The Oxygen network, I think primarily aimed towards women, claims that The Robber Bride is an Oxygen Original movie. Maybe that's true but from all outward appearances it looks to be just a movie made for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Was it truly commissioned by Oxygen? By the CBC? Or just a movie made and then the broadcasting right sold to the CBC and Oxygen? The answer: who cares.
After a woman is apparently killed, there's a whole lotta her blood but only one finger is found. In a nice, polite manner, the Canadian police arrest one of their own for the crime. His friend, a former cop now an insurance man, is asked to clear his name. From there we learn about the "deceased's" relationship with three women but not much about who Zenia really is.
It's a strange yet mostly boring story. Why did Mary-Louise Parker accept the primary female lead in this second-rate production? Needed money? A favor to someone? She shouldn't have 'cause this movie is just not worth watching unless maybe you're a fan of the CN Tower in Toronto or something.
