Oh no, why can't they leave it alone. It makes you wonder if they had the script writing pens out the day after she died. I always thought at the time of her death that her song should have been the 'Oh what a circus' one from Evita rather than Candle in the Wind.
She was a troubled and often difficult soul. I know people who knew her well. Let her go; that's all I'm saying.
Les proz e les vassals
Souvent entre piez de chevals
Kar ja li coard n’I chasront

Are always to be found between the hooves of horses
For never will cowards fall down there.'

There was no way this wasn't going to happen. In any case, this may be the first major movie, but I'm sure there's been at least one made-for-TV movie and umpteen docudramas.

I can't remember any Biopic/Docudrama that were portrayed, fairly, accurate and compelling....Recently most of them are exploitive(new word) and OTT.....
