Candy (TV Mini Series 2022) ⭐ 7.1 | Biography, Crime, Drama
May 9, 2022 - Biel is good, I like her here more than in 'Sinner' I must say, Melanie Lynskey had my heart since "Heavenly Creatures' and Pablo Schreiber surprised & convinced me in 'Lorelei'. Super cast so far. I'd binge if they were all out. (The 90s movie "Killing in a small town' is also recommendable btw!) 7 stars for now - could turn into 8 after Friday. What I find confusing is a second mini series with Olsen as Candy coming out this year.

Candy movie review & film summary (2022) | Roger Ebert
Candy
What can we learn from Candy? Outside of casting its stars with consistency, not much really. But sometimes that’s sweet enough. On June 13th, 1980, seemingly ordinary Texan housewife Candy Montgomery (Jessica Biel) went to her friend Betty Gore’s (Melanie Lynskey) house and brutally murdered her with an axe. How did a church-going, married mother of two reach a point where she struck another woman 42 times with a blade? Was it jealousy or self-defense? Nick Antosca (“The Act”) and Robin Veith (“Mad Men”) unpack the days before and after this event with stark, horror-esque storytelling in Hulu
Rating: 3/4 ​

r/movies on Reddit: Candy (Hulu 2022)
July 21, 2021 -

It's actually pretty good! I mean, there is a lot of weird early 80's Texas stuff going on in this story, but it's pretty compelling and it seems to move right along.

The thing that I thought was funny/interesting is, I know about exactly 2 famous axe murders. This one and Lizzie Borden. If you know the Lizzie Borden rhyme it goes ... Lizzie Borden took an ax
And gave her mother forty whacks,
And when she saw what she had done,
She gave her father forty-one.

And in this movie, the TV reporter says Mrs. Gore was hit 41 times.

Maybe it just takes 40-41 whacks to kill someone with an axe! I mean, 100% of the axe murders I know about took 41 whacks.

Oh, and you know what else I thought was kind of noteworthy. Here are Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake making a movie together and it's all about cheaters who are caught and everyone knows about it. Just thought it was interesting after his little whatever that was when he got busted. Bet that made for some fun nights of running lines at home, right?
