Lies of the Heart: The Story of Laurie Kellogg

To: "Halfpint_7030", Yes, this is a true story based on Laurie Lee Kellogg, though only about one third of the film was accurate.

Laurie is still in prison, though we are trying relentlessly to free her and we're optimistic about the outcome.

Her mom and step dad along with her two boys Kyle and Kristopher reside in New England.

If you have any questions regarding Laurie and her current situation; you may email me whenever you desire.

Please pray for Laurie and her family; and thank you for your concern.

This movie is a really good movie. It always kept me watching, and you never get bored. Jennie Garth does a great job in it. Her portrayal of Laurie Kellogg is remarkable. I'd say it was one of her best movies. Definitely watch it!

I hate movies like this! It's not difficult to play with someone's emotions... All you have to do is throw in a few characters that are either abusing someone, or being abused, and (hopefully) human nature causes a feeling of wanting to do something about it. But being able to touch an emotion in a viewer's mind does not make a good movie, and this movie is a perfect example of that.

To be truthful, I only watched the first half, and then turned off the TV because it was so bad. And although I don't know the ending, I can't imagine how it could be anything other than the obvious. And even if there was some incredible twist at the end that made the ending the best movie ending ever made, I would still give it a low rating, just because of the first half alone.

I give it a few points for not being technically ridiculous -- the actors and photography were ok (although nothing remarkable) -- but the story was so thin, and seemed to be completely related to twisting our emotions around in knots just to cause a reaction in us, that I give it overall very low marks. Touching our emotions is great, but give us a story too!

I survived one of those (murder trial) in l997 and understand more than the "average bear" about the our justice system.

The film shows how fast things can go horribly wrong and 'out of control' for todays youth.

This should be shown in High Schools across the country,

I grew up in Linglestown, and knew Denver McDowell. The producers of this movie took great liberties with the filming. The houses Denver and the Kelloggs lived in look NOTHING like the ones in the movie. Also, the town is LinglesTOWN, not LinglesTON. I do not know enough about the situation to know who was telling the truth, but I do know it would've been nice if someone would have actually COME to Pennsylvania and researched the area. Add to that the fact that the actors look absolutely NOTHING like the real people, and it makes it just more over the top.

The writing of the movie is simply just another Lifetime movie of the week.
