The Burning Bed (1984 TV Movie)
10/10
Powerful and emotional
7 July 2009
Tears welled in my eyes as I watched this movie. The cruelty of the husband, the terror of the children, and the strength of a victimized woman are captured flawlessly through the acting and the production. The movie draws viewers in and doesn't let go or loosen its grip. One truly is under the illusion that he or she is in Farrah Fawcett's character's shoes as he or she watches this movie. I completely forgot that Fawcett died so recently because her character was so alive. The movie is a well-executed and powerful whirlwind of emotions. A must-see masterpiece, not for the faint of heart, and not just because of the violent beatings.
