The Girl from Plainville

...en fin true crime-skildring där det enkelt påvisas att det ibland inte finns någon vinnare.

...utmärkta huvudrollsinnehavare, fina biroller...

...a provocative series that provides perspective and will make you think about how willing the news media is to exploit a tragedy, how difficult it can be to be a teenager, and how hard society is on young women.

The performances are great. Fanning walks a series of fine lines – between normal adolescent intensity and delusion, between youthful egocentricity and narcissism, between love and need – with aplomb.

Elle Fanning, Colton Ryan, and Chloe Sevigny elevate a story that read tawdry in social media headlines but emerges here as a sensitive portrait of two teens who encouraged each other's worst impulses.

Elle Fanning is chilling in grimly compelling courtroom drama.
