Family Pictures (2019 TV Movie)
6/10
Above Average...
1 June 2020
The bigamist with two wives yarn is re-heated in this above average TV 'chick flick'.

Because it's based on a book (true story I believe) it's slightly less formulaic than the average TV movie - and despite some occasional moments of clunky dialogue this is an above-average TV feature film.

The three leads (and rest of cast) give superb performances; there's a 'don't miss' scene in the ladies restroom near the court room, where the two wives have a showdown, exchanging loaded insults from a place of betrayal, devastation, and mutual empathy.

The ending (showdown with errant hubby) has a super-duper surprise which I won't spoil - the ending is not sad is all I'll say!

Worth watching...including the striking photography and location shooting.
