Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Go for it if you're into murder mysteries.
Review: This is the gripping, true thriller of the 60's-70-s activist, Ira Einhorn, who was accused in absentia of the blungeoning death of girlfriend, Holly Maddux in 79. This film is long, but well worth the time devoted to it, and the acting surprisingly, brilliant despite the fact it is a made for t.v. drama.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Sad, harrowing, awful story, well done
Review: This movie documents the murder of Holly Maddux by Counterculture hippie Ira Einhorn(Unicron). This is an excellent film based on the history of the relationship between the monster Einhorn and innocent Holly. Einhorn murdered this poor girl and then left her body in a trunk in his closet for 18 months before the police found it.
Incredibly he was given bail and escaped to France, finally to be tracked down and eventually brought to justice in October of 2002 when after fighting many appeals and extradition in France he was convicted and sentenced to life in Prison. The movie details the trials up till 2001, so it's a little outdated. The film, though, is important as it spotlights the hypocrisy of the hippie counterculture, it shows how one of its leaders, who preached peace, only ruined people's lives and was a violent monster. We learn how conservative values turn out better in the end and how most liberals secretly beat and cheat on their wives and abort innocent lives. A wonderful account, much to learn here!
