No One Would Tell

This movie had some very emotional and powerful scenes. The acting was great and the movie was a great example of what domestic violence looks like in a teen relationship. I hope teenagers watch this and consider telling someone if they or one of their friends is involved in a situation like this. I hope it bring courage to many to be able to speak up. It can save lives and brings awareness to all involved.

When I saw the 1996 version with Fred Savage and Candace Cameron, I remember being invested in it all the way through. I remember feeling every emotion that Stacy (Cameron) felt, even though I hadn't experienced what she did.



This remake is just as outstanding as its predecessor with Matreya Scarrwener playing the main character, now named Sarah, and Callan Potter as Rob, her devoted boyfriend. When I say devoted, I mean devoted to controlling her and abusing her every step of their relationship.



This is a true story about a 16-year-old teen who murdered his 14-year-old girlfriend. A boy who felt justified in inflicting physical, emotional, and mental abuses at Sarah, then who showed no remorse, just cold empty soulless eyes as he was sentenced to a life sentence in 1992 for first-degree murder.



A story of a boy who moved fast onto his victim, made her, yes, made her be with him, stay with him, no matter what he did to her, who refused to let her have any friends, who blamed her for his own insane jealousy and fits of anger. Scarrwener honors Amy's (whom Sarah is based on) memory. The entire movie, she is happy, bright, enjoying life, and when Rob hurts her, she cowers, feels guilty, loses her vivacity all the while trying to please him. Watching her endure the torments of her abuser tore at my heart. She had a wonderful support system, primarily her best friend and mother, but she felt obligated to stand by Rob. And when she left him, he still found a way to trick her just once more so that he could kill her.





Shannon Doherty plays Sarah's mother with grace, a loving mother who can't see the darkness her daughter experiences because Sarah is too ashamed to let her know. She is so good at excusing Rob's behavior, at hiding her own pain, at doing whatever it takes to appease him that it just grips your very soul.



Young adults need to see this film, and the original. There are so many important lessons here for young teens, for parents, for friends of the abused and the abuser.

As a man I found this movie so terribly sad, but even sadder is that it's based on a true story. We have to stop domestic violence there's no place for it in our society. It was so well produced and totally believable. I'll always remember this movie, most I watch then kind of forget but not this.

Good update to the domestic violence for teens. I remember the older movie. Fred Savage was wrong in the first one too angelic looking.

The acting is good. The violence is quite spontaneous looking well acted and scary.

I haven't seen a serious issue Lifetime movie for a while and this is a welcome departure from the psycho thriller theme.

Nice to see Shannen so healthy and pretty again after her illness.

I liked the first version of this movie with Candace Cameron Bure much better. However, this version was good too. This isn't the first time LMN aired a movie about teenagers getting abused by their boyfriends. Its sort of the norm. But this one feels a little different from the rest. I'm not sure If I like the actress they picked for the main Character. It was great to see Shannen Doherty back on the small screen. She was great in the film. It was nothing special but still a little entertaining, to say the least.
