I'm not saying I agree with what she did, but you would have to be one of hundreds of thousands of women, who have been in her shoes to understand the scope of what she went through. The realistic way the whole thing came about on film was great. I frist saw the movie when it hit the t.v, and back then it wasn't easy to discuss this kind of thing. The Tracy Thurman story really put abused women and their abusers, on the road to getting something done about it. Back then it was hard for an abused woman to get the help she cried out for. a woman was considered a bad wife if she didn't do as her husband said. Hog Wash!! Them days, for the most part are long over with, and so long,I say.
