Well first of all, am I posting this in the right place? I think it was made for tv,but please move it if I'm screwing up... I think it was morgan who brought this to my attention when I mentioned Maria Bello in another movie. She was outstanding in this as well. And Ann Dowd as the creepy librarian-mother....wow. I had only seen her in The Handmaid's Tale as Aunt Lydia.She's got a real knack for playing those characters you love to hate, doesn't she? Has anyone else seen this one?

You're right, Wicked Esther. Big Driver was originally a TV movie (for Lifetime I think). I bought it on DVD since I don't have cable.
I agree, the cast was excellent. Joan Jett did a fantastic job as well.

I was kinda surprised by that. I don't have cable either, but Lifetime isn't usually known for showing Stephen King movies (!)....and also...another thing that surprised me was how much I liked Joan Jett in this.She had a small role, but she played it well.

I remember seeing it a few years back and I even recorded it to save in our DVR but unfortunately a lot of stuff got wiped out - I hope it shows up again. I loved the short story

Tubi is an app that lets you watch a WHOOoooooLE bunch of free movies. PLUTO TV is also good, but I use that more for watching old reruns of The Addams Family.

Pluto keeps changing and adding stuff— I really like that channel! I keep thinking of trying out that NBC/ Peacock app, but haven’t done it yet.I wonder if it’s any good...
