Love, Lies, and Murder (1991)

Just perfect...

Blistering performances.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Love, Lies, and Murder is a TV miniseries that features Clancy Brown, Sheryl Lee, Moira Kelly, Tom Bower, John Ashton, and Cynthia Nixon.The miniseries was four hours long and aired on NBC in two parts.It was directed by Robert Markowitz.This is a chilling mini-series based on the 1985 true story of David A. Brown, a computer whiz, who orchestrated his wife,Linda Brown's murder with the help of two trusting but totally manipulated teenage girls.He masterminded this bizarre murder plot by luring his 14-year-old step daughter and 17-year-old sister-in-law into the cold-blooded shooting of his wife. As the lies are peeled away, layer after layer, his sinister web of treachery, deceit, and manipulation is finally shattered in a hailstorm of staggering revelations.When police investigate, the stepdaughter confesses to the killing. This closes the case when David marries his late wife's sister, and doubts begin to stir as to whether or not the stepdaughter was coerced into confessing.The gripping tale of an almost perfect murder and an unflinching portrait of a terrifying killer.Also,it was an unforgettable look at one of the most shocking crimes and it proves once and for all that fact is sometimes truly stranger than fiction.It may not be the best TV mini- series ever shown but it certainly is unforgettable.

I watched the movie and I am very disappointed in the way they portrayed Cinnamon and the others in the movie. My uncle is Richard and the way the showed him and David Brown in the movie is nothing to the truth about what happened. Cinnamon was a good kid that only did what her dad told her to do. David Brown was a very manipulative and cruel man. I cant believe they did such an awful job when making this movie. The book by Anne Rule "If You Really Love Me" was perfect to the whole story. If you want the truth detail by detail then read the book. I can only say the the movie tells a little bit about what happened but nothing about the movie is believable. I know Cinnamon wherever she is probably saw this movie and couldn't believe how they made the movie. If your gonna make a movie about a true incident then you should make it to where its believable

Love, Lies and Murder is a very good film that has a good cast which includes Clancy Brown, Sheryl Lee, Moira Kelly, Tom Bower, Ramon Bieri, Cynthia Nixon, Nestor Serrano, John M. Jackson, John Ashton, Shelley Morrison, Cathryn de Prume, Gerry Bamman, Paul Perri, and Joe D'Angerio. The acting by all of these actors is very good. Brown is really excellent in this film. I thought that he performed good. So is Jackson! The thrills is really good and some of it is surprising. The movie is filmed very good. The music is good by Charles Bernstein. The film is quite interesting and the movie really keeps you going until the end. This is a very good and thrilling film. If you like Clancy Brown, Sheryl Lee, Moira Kelly, Tom Bower, Ramon Bieri, Cynthia Nixon, Nestor Serrano, John M. Jackson, John Ashton, Shelley Morrison, the rest of the cast in the film, Thrillers, Mystery, Dramas, and interesting True Stories then I strongly recommend you to see this film today!

This was an excellent movie that held my attention the entire 4 hours it was on TV. What makes it more interesting is to know that it's based on a true story. It all starts when 14 year old Cinnamon shoots and kills her stepmother and then tries to kill herself. The story unfolds from there into a web of lies, deception, and seduction. I don't want to give too much away, so I'll just say that if you're into the kind of movies shown on Lifetime TV, check your TV Guide or run to your video store - this is definitely one worth watching.
