Featured review
I saw this one a few weeks ago, late one night when there was nothing on telly and I couldn't sleep, so this was my last resort.
The supposedly "true" story of Mia Farrow, starting from her early life, then her career as a willowy ingenue in the movies (and real life), then her "affair" and ultimate "betrayal" by the cad Woody Allen, played amusingly here by actor Dennis Boutsikaris, who hems and haws quite effectively.
Former Oasis wife Patsy Kensit is properly wispy as Mia Farrow, and there are numerous very funny lines that will keep you watching, assuming that you have a tolerance for hokey stuff like this.
On the positive side, Grace Una is very cute as Soon-Yi Previn, and the obvious Canadian locations will make this a treat for Canucks.
