I think this movie was good and I appreciated it. But of course, I do have some problems with it: I don't know that the first 40 minutes being a representation of her situation in a positive, glamorous light was necessary. We should've had the entire runtime in her perspective. This minimized her story in my opinion. Her getting out & the ending was very rushed.. They had some killer performances here and everything visually and tonally was perfect but they definitely could've structured the movie better to focus on Linda and her story in her perspective. I also know for a fact none of those grimy men really helped her escape her husband- I can already bet money that this was fabricated to bring us to the rushed ending we got.
I know now that Linda has a book about her life, so I need to definitely read it. I'm sure a star will end up knocked off my rating once I read that because it's evident her story was minimized a bit here.
Amanda seyfried CRUSHED this. She is so incredible
