Ich bin schuld an deinem Tod

The story focuses on Lizzie, Janie and Kate (Gee, really original names people.), three best friends since kindergarten. Kate's the sickly sweet one, Janie's the rebel, and Lizzie's somewhere in-between. Lizzie has a crush on Janie's dumb jock brother, and the feeling is mutual.

Lizzie and Janie (who are none too bright)'s favorite past time is to get smashed on the weekend with vodka and beer. One night, they drive home drunk and end up crashing. Lizzie lives, Janie (the interesting one) doesn't. Now Lizzie's on trial for vehicular homicide, Janie's mother's got a thirst for vengeance (She does a good job of making us wish she has been in the car), and Dumb Jock Brother's not speaking to Lizzie.

The movie is well meaning, but so completely corny, it kills the message off. And for some reason, Lizzie's mom looks too old for Lizzie's dad (Just my opinion, people.). So don't drink and drive, and you won't have to watch this movie (unless you take Coach Brown's class).

The movie was very good but the part that bothered me was the fact that nothing happened to the girl that caused the accident. She chose to drink, she chose to drive, and even though she may not have wanted the girl to die, the choices that she made caused it to happen. She was not punished for killing someone. That was so sad that the family had to go through that and the girl that killed her drank through the whole movie. She wanted her friends and others to boycott graduation because she thought she was not being treated fairly. OMG! The whole movie was poor poor Lizzie. Please tell me this girl did not get a happily ever after life. No one wishes her dead but she should have paid for her crime. I am not sure why they continued to have alcohol in their home and the fact that the girl was such a liar did not make it any better. If she had been poor and not an honor student, there would not have been a movie in the first place. The movie was done very well it was just the injustice that bites!

'Playing to Win', 'Champion's Fight (a/k/a 'Shattered Hearts'), and 'The Accident' -- all gripping movies under the popular 'Moment of Truth' franchise. (Oh, let us not forget 'Secret Between Friends'). If ever there is a collection of movies that belongs on DVD, the 'Moment of Truth' franchise is the one.

'The Accident' deals with the dynamics of drinking and driving in a tactful and educational way and should send a strong message to adults AND children (future adolescents) -- DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE, and if you believe you have a drinking problem, or if anyone you know has a drinking problem, GET SOME HELP! For your sake and the sake of those around you.

well-written and effective, this LMN addition is worth a view, especially by any teens and parents concerned about drinking and driving. The message: it only takes one mistake to destroy a life. Many lives are affected, not just the victim, his/her family, but EVERYONE.

Kate and Lizzie (well-portrayed by Deanna Milligan and Bonnie Root) are celebrating high school graduation with their friend Janie.

At first it seems harmless, socializing, having a few drinks, they have their freedom and can go out and party. In one scene they are pulled over by a cop, were drunk, but get away with it. They drive to parties, enjoying their senior year.

One night as Lizzie is driving them home, she incurs a tragic accident her friend Janie dies, and her life is altered forever.

Bonnie Root is excellent as Lizzie, who becomes suicidal, self-hating and in despair. Her parents attempt to help her, but she at first refuses treatment. She continues to drink and drive, and at one point knocks a child off his bicycle. In court she is sentenced to probation; unintentional vehicular manslaughter.

This film addresses the fall-out and complicated issues of alcoholism/binge drinking. More than 50,000 teens per year are involved in alcohol related accidents, many fatal. However, the film does not just preach, it shows the frustrations of Lizzie's parents, Lizzie's own issues, and why she chooses to drink, and how the victims family is forever affected as well. Very well-presented. 8/10.

Hollywood for years portrayed drinking and smoking in all its films and continues to do the same thing in this century, making it look like a very important part of the social life for everyone, rich or poor, young or old. If you had a hard days work or wanted to have a ball, they showed famous actors and actresses having a martini and smoking in almost every scene. Drinking was an escape from the reality of having to face life and its many problems we all have to face. This picture about three(3) young gals looking for a good time, showing false ID's is an on going problem and does not end with this movie. (it is done with High School & College Students) Bonnie Root, who plays Lizzie Williams, enjoys drinking Vodka straight from the bottle, while other girls, Janie Palmer (Marisa Rudiak) and Kate Jenkins (Deanna Milligan) like to drink wine coolers or just plain beer. (all of these are addictive) As the movie progresses, each girl seems to drink occasionally and increases as time goes by, however, Lizzie seems to enjoy drinking more and more vodka. They are all very intelligent young ladies with straight A's, and have been told many times about the danger of drinking, however, they do not think it can happen to them, they really are not aware of the dangers of really drinking and its very addictive abilities to destroy your body and mind(BRAIN CELLS). One of he girls was able to turn off their drinking habits with no withdrawal symptoms(which is very hard to break, like smoking, but WORSE!) and went about their lives, however, Lizzie has an never ending fight with drinking. There really is no END to this movie so long as people DRINK & DRIVE and care nothing about their brothers and sisters in this world around them. The movie proved that you can really enjoy the natural JOYS of living without a DRINKING HIGH which vanishes the next day. Some of these girls thought that just drinking beer and wine was not as bad as hard booze, and found out it all leads them in the same direction. Having to drink everyday or on schedule, is a good sign you need HELP!
