    Hey peeps,

    I am just wondering if anybody has seen this film?

    I watched it last night after recording it off the TV. I had read about the murder before seeing the film and thought it was horrific then, but the film really just makes it hit you so much more. It is actually one of the saddest films I have ever seen and my eyes were bright red by the end of it. Within the first minute it had me bawling. :icon_redf

    It's a fantastic film and really covers the events well. If you haven't seen it before then I definetly recommend it as it's a very thought-provoking film, and even 12 hours after watching it I'm still feeling upset about the whole murder. :icon_redf It's a very emotional film, but it's also definetly a film you should watch if you ever get the chance.

    Anybody seen it before? If so, what did ye think?

    I saw this when it originally aired in 2002. Very touching and well done film.
