Bad Romance: The Vicky White Story

"This really happened (sure with some fictionalized dramatization thrown in). Wendi McLendon-Covey looks so much like the real Vicky White! Found one glitch where Vicky was speaking for a stretch, but her mouth was noticeably not moving (sure it was not meant to be narration...)--not a deal-breaker though in my finding it a satisfying watch. Wish the ending had been different, but, well, it was the result of her bad choices, right? ("Bad Romance," a fitting title.) This is one of Lifetime's "Truly Unbelievable Movies, A Ripped From The Headlines Event.""

"Great movie @carolyn1 thanks for the recommendation. I did find some factual discrepancies between this film and other information I’ve read and seen about this story but overall it was really good! Movies always seem to take a lot of liberty with the facts. Wendy McLendon-Covey is amazing and does such a good job portraying Vikki. She also looks a lot like her so it’s even more believable. I didn’t like that this movie made it seem like she planned the escape all on her own and it was a surprise to him. There is a lot of evidence that he knew and maybe even convinced her to help him so they could “be together”. Other than that, it was very well done!"

"2023. Another movie about Vicky White and that whole situation. Wendi McLendon-Covey was a great casting choice!"

"True story. They said "the nation was captivated", but I knew nothing about it. Definitely worth watching! Wendy McLedon-Covey is fantastic in this dramatic roll."
