Double Standard (1988)
Good argument for polygamous marriage????
Incredible how such a thing could happen involving a man of such prominence! I'm sure this was almost incomprehensible back in the '70's and '80's, though not as unthinkable during our times today. The acting is stellar and very believable.
I would highly recommend this movie for viewing as would like to submit that maybe this movie could also be used in an academic discussion or debate regarding the issue of polygamous marriage since this is definitely a hotbed issue during out times.
Of course both wives would need to 'be on-board', but I still feel that this particular story would definitely bring up different thoughts and feelings.
I would say that is is a MUST WATCH movie.
Betrayed (1988)
What frightens me
What is scary is that the incidents that take place in this movie are ALL true though the names are different. I live in the city where one of the characters was affected. I do not want to give away the name or circumstance just in case you have not had an opportunity to see the movie yet.
Great movie though! Also, the hunting scene does exist. This is EXTREMELY TERRIFYING because it is true and still does happen. Even to this day. A noteworthy news network did do a story on this. A few years ago.
Watch the movie and you will see what I'm referring to.
