"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!"
