When you have an outstanding performance from Patricia Arquette and Joey King in The Act, this film fails short, it's a remagining and based on the true story but at times its more visual than trying to tell you the story.
Ok I I've heard about this movie & I heard about the Dee Blanchard & how she forced Gypsy Rose to be sick & this movie is telling it the same way so why did they named the characters Camile & Esme? That Doesn't make No Sense Why didn't they do the characters of Dee Dee Blanchard & Gypsy Rose? & when Camile told the neighbor that the Convention is a Freak Show that people dressed up in Costumes to pretend that they aren't & she ends up taking her anyway that was kinda weird
The act is so much better- this isn't the worst movie ever Marcia gay harden is really good. But it feels really rushed!!!!
TV movie based on real life story of Gypsy Rose Blanchard who plotted to kill her mother who abused her through munchausens by proxy.
Though names gave been changed in this, it's very much based on the story.
So many inaccuracies and factual errors with substandard to poor acting involved, if you haven't watched the limited series The Act, go watch that for amazing acting, incredibly in depth and very factually accurate portrayal of what really happened. Nothing to see here but watered down Lifetime Movie tosh.

....watch The Act instead much more gripping and interesting than this so called take on the real life story of Dee-Dee & Gypsy Rose Blanchard. The acting was pretty poor in my opinion they should have just saved their money and not even made it.
