This movie is a great example of never letting a man be in complete control of your financial security, she did not plan for her own independence. But actually, she did learn, she did become a completely different person capable of making her own decisions.
Clancy Brown is one of the best. Hell of a good actor. From being the Captain of the guards in The Shawshank Redemption to the sherriff in Pet Sematary 2, and everything in between, he never disappoints.
The father and sons don't work well together at all in their family business. They are constantly competing against each other. The women are the ones who are trying to keep peace in the family. But that is not to be since the men don't value their opinions.
@@vickyabramowitz2885 Better that men get away from family business at the earliest opportunity. I don't think daughters would fare any better working under their parents.
I've been missing the great true crime miniseries like this one, I wonder why nobody is doing them any more.. Somehow I missed this one when it was broadcast. Thanks for sharing!
I know I think it was ABC and CBS who use to do a lot of these true crime movies and they use to come on a Saturday night sometimes but mostly during the week b/c they were mini-series so they would come on for two nights. I miss this kind of "true crime movies" b/c they always had good actors playing the roles. I watched Brian Dennehy's true tv movie Deadly Matrimony (1992) where he played Sgt. Jack Reed (they also made a few more movies w/Brian Dennehy as Sgt. Jack Reed). Man, what an actor BD is, I think he is amazing in all his movies. I loved the Sgt. Jack Reed movies so much - his character was such a family man w/a loving wife and he had work w/scumbag dirty cops, but my man Reed got them. A Season of Purgatory is another fantastic mini-series - the book by the great Dominick Dunne; he truly was a brilliant writer and advocate for the victims and their families, his own daughter who was a upcoming actress Dominque Dunne (she was in the movie Poltergiest) was murdered by her ex-boyfriend (sick SOB). Dominick clearly stated he thought OJ Simpson killed his ex-wife Nicole Simpson and Ron Gold - premeditated murders and Dunne was at EVERY hearing while OJ stood trial, damn if looks could kill OJ be dead b/c Dunne was snarling at him as was Denise (Nicole's sister - who looks JUST like Nicole w/dark brown hair; I think that was her name) Anyway, it was like OJ was looking at a ghost everyday - OJ is a piece of shit.
i found the JEff MacDonald mini series the mini series Blind Faith Robert Marshall and one other i just saw Jim Jones guyana, you kinda haft search for them and sometimes i stumble on them like the Blind Faith one.
Stewart's wife Melody sold the story that became this movie.....The producers of Bloodlines paid handsomely -- one informed estimate put the figure at about $200,000 -- for the cooperation of Melody Woodman, Stewart's wife. So hers is their story and they are sticking to it even though Melody acknowledges, "I stood behind (Stewart) and felt he was innocent for at least two years. It took a couple of years before I started to doubt him. It was just like an accumulation of evidence. Things started to fit together."
I was born the youngest of 3 kids to parents who were stressed by plotting life as cheaply as possible but with fun and liquor allowed...Scot-Irish. I was told i was stupid and fat from birth. My sister plotted against me one year after another needing everyone to believe she was the smarter one when i knew she was the lying one who manipulated her way. My brother bullied me all my life whenever he could. I existed within the family trying not to cause waves or attention. Thank God my Dads folks lived one street away from ours the first 11 years of my life. Grammie loved me unconditionally. My Mom didnt always get along with her. Maybe because i openly loved Gram. I bonded with her at birth since Mom was too weak to care for me. I never was close to Mom. She was close to my sister. My Dad was superficially close to everyone. I felt like an intrusion in my own family but never at my grandparents.
No matter how strict the father was his business ir his own mony no justification in murdering them. After all the father worked his guts out. The sons wanted the fathet to hand it over them on a silver platter
I remember when the news came out that brothers murdered their parents, along with the court trial. I worked in the area at the time. The murder was surreal and I could not grasp the reality that anyone could do this.
I can. Their father was awful and their mother helpless to defend them. There are many reasons to commit crimes, but strong people don't succumb to the temptation.
This is why you have a right to a speedy trial. However you must exercise that right. You can't expect it will be given to you. You can't expect any of your rights will be given to you. You must know them and exercise them.
If anyone is to blame, it lies with the father, all he did was gamble, talk down on his two oldest sons and praised his youngest son, that's how Stewart became the arrogant bastard he was.
@@epcotman32 Yes, but I couldn't help but note that she defended her husband in court and while she said she would give her life for her sons, she wouldn't sell her stake in the business to them because they would "ruin her husbands legacy." If you could give your life for your children, start with your money first.
He certainly is ……. he sucks even worse than he’s rated. He always plays the part of a whining, cringe worthy, self obsessed narcissist, but actually, I don’t think he’s ‘playing a part’ at all. 🤢
yes i miss the 80s and 90s and the music ,movies ,hell evening the 70s i know its not my area lol but i love good things from these areas the mid 2000s and late have the worse movies and music,crime etc
Mimi has the most interesting face. Crooked mouth never looked so beautiful on anyone. She is a great actress who makes me care about her, even when she’s cast as THE murderer.
You think that Mimi Rogers is not good looking? You should look twice, she’s more stunning and dazzling then most of the average Hollywood actress’s of her generation.
This is so good I had to watch Part 1 and Part 2 a few times each. I look and there are details I missed the first time. You really have to watch this at least twice to get ALL of the details you miss.
I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN. ( HE'S IN OTHER KING MOVIES ) PS i know quite a few high end reataurant owners in LA and MOST don't acrtually have a pot to piss in.
Baskerville22 ~ Yes it is her. Who could forget those awful white tights she always wore and wearing them here too. That's how I recognised her. Must have been her signature garment!
When the Menendez brothers were named as suspects in their parents murder, it was reported in some media outlets that's exactly where they got the idea from!
@@sarah5893Ah! That case came to my mind halfway through this show! Hollywood indeed is America's pride and shame all at the same time. Love from Kenya.
@Billy Esgarzaga. In your reply to me you disagree with me that media outlets at the time of the Mendenez Brothers murders reported thats where they got their idea from. You state that because it was 1993 & the Mendenez brothers murdered their parents in 1989 this probably wasnt the case. I dont know why you replied & didnt allow me to reply back maybe because youre incorrect. The film was made/shown on tv in 1993 but the actual murders took place in 1985. Four years before the Mendenez brothers murdered their parents so if anyone else on here can reply to him then please forward my comment on thank you!
WHAT Is wrong with people , I think Elliot Gould is doing a great job. People are idiots, they are doing nothing with their lives and are criticizing someone who DID something with his life.
I agree with you. I'm sitting outside a Dollar General between Tahlequah, Ok and Keys, Ok. I just got back from the unemployment office. I was trying to get back pay, but I don't have any. I ate at Taco Bell a little bit ago. I talked to my brother earlier at the Dollar General in Gore,Ok. He lost his bank card. He got him one of those little cabins. They delivered it to him Monday. Enjoy the film.🎥🎞️🎬📺
His money was all he gave her. He's a narcissist; they are takers, not givers of themselves. It's a business deal to him. She gets things, and he gets cooking, cleaning, and sex on demand. Just listen to how he talks (down) to her. She's a subservient servant to him; a bartered for employee in his mind.
could be thats fine and thats beats being with a broke ass man you gotta build with and go 50/50 with,marriage is a busniess yall didnt know that,aslong she didnt kill nobody or hurt nobody @@Brembelia
Boy oh boy! Discord in the family is probably the worst of all discords but this REALLY TAKES THE CAKE!!!!! The poor wife is not guilty of anything but she's catching all the flak!
I guess because water is "free". A lot of people who keep wine in their homes wouldn't share it with just anyone (lol) and offering coffee to someone who is upset might not be the best idea cuz it's hot and spillable if they are shaking and caffeine makes jangled nerves worse. Hand me a Twinkie lol
True movies channel is the best! And that's coming from a 65-year-old. lol (Hello, K 4, Four years later, and you're now 22, still the best, eh? Holy cow, I was already 32 when this movie took place in 1985. And you weren't born until 13 years later yet we both have the same good taste.}
This movie could have been so much better if it were more realistic. First of all, a bank doesn't foreclose on a property without notification and demand you leave in 72 hours. That's ridiculous..it takes months. Same with the cars getting repossessed. And the sheriff certainly doesn't come to an auto repo.
I wouldn't like to be friends with a woman and his brother murdered their own parents out of greed avaraciouness etc. No thank you. The couples children are so awful especially the daughter.
1:08:41 OMG...KID SCREAMING LIKE that....Definitely not Acceptable to Terrify her mother like that. Her mom is goign thought enough crap and this kid is old enough to know better. MY parents would never have tolerated that and IM SO GLAD! I woiuld've been so embarrassed.
That lawyer Hal w Mimi, just saw him in Blind Faith, another made for TV true crime story...played Robert Urich's best friend and Mimis' friend Susan was in that movie too as Robert's mistress, must be the same production company LOL... That dad raised these two boys this way, I hate to say that he got his karma, not saying its right or justified, but the parents did that damage. Sad for the wifey, she was just trying to raise her kids in his world, good thing she got an identity of her own finally.
and when the cop was having the cars towed away. why did the kids. have to ho upstairs. their teenagers. for. God sake s. they can see. what's. . going. on. c'mon. for. real. they can get a.little.. job. even at the mall or at a grocery. store. as a box .boy or what nut
Wow. Repro vehicles even though making payments. How is that possible? Plus the bank is and reports the house. No notice from anyone? Sheesh. Are there not laws that protect the consumer as well as the lenders? Great movie by the way. Has me really buying into it. Would not be surprised if little brother has his own secrets. Thank you for sharing. God bless
Always liked Bonnie Bartlett she' was always good as somebody's mother Been in scores is of TV movies And on series played the part of Grace Snider later marrying Mr Edwards on little house on the prairie
Schuyler Johnson yes sweetie but they were molested by their dad I couldn’t imagine what it was like I mean I was molested by a fucking pedophile but that’s my problem anyways enjoy this movie 🎥
Schuyler Johnson no I wish they would put that on I'd watch that these two grown men are nothing but whiny pitiful farts!! At least the Menendez brothers they were young kids and their parents were abusive either way greed!! When you look at a few in 2019 and look at all the people kill their parents and in the past who killed their parents for money that they don't report it's been going on from the dawn of time
Mimi Rogers has never been one of my favorites. However, It seems interesting. Sad how two people had to die. I feel the son, the father of these children, had something to do with the murder. His over-re-acting doesn't sit well with me. He's guilty of having them murdered.
How could anyone smile and be syo excited over being money because your parents were murdered!!! This man deserves a much greater punished then the court system would ever hand down to him. his poor wife
