Precious Things

I don't know what movie t-1 is confusing this with, but I can confirm that this was shot in 2017.

This was made in the year 2008 but for some reason in the UK it's being credited as being made in 2017 and under the title "my daughter is innocent". This is a so-so lifetime movie about 2 underage girls (who happen to be best friends) who get two timed by this older man. One of the girls later get arrested for murder when the guy mysteriously ends up in a coma with a fractured skull. Predictable and dull.

Victoria Pratt is the only reason we watched this. Besides being stunningly beautiful, she's a very good actress playing Mom to a daughter, Amber, who is dating Alex, an older man. Trouble is her good friend, Kelly, is also dating him and when Amber finds out, it doesn't go well and the 2-timer ends up dead and Amber gets arrested as a suspect. Yikes? Whodunit? You'll just have to watch it. ]The supporting Canadian cast does a fine job with Christina Cox being the other Mom who's been in many Lifetime movies! I would watch again ONLY if nothing else better was on.

About as predictable as a film could possibly be.

'My Daughter is Innocent' certainly doesn't throw you off the scent, I called exactly what was going to happen as early as the first few scenes... and that's not to big myself up at all, it's just incredibly obvious.

I kinda like the plot but I simply couldn't connect to it due to the aforementioned, with other things like the cinematography (how many drone shots does one need?) and acting being just as poor. The four main cast members are likeable but their performances are substandard, though they aren't helped by the writing which makes the characters act bizarrely in most scenes.

There are worse films out there, but that doesn't stop the fact that this is a rather dismal effort - and that's coming from someone who respects and is able to enjoy made-for-TV productions.
