Didn't really know what to expect before I watched this movie. I have a sister-in-law who is an artist, so I was somewhat familiar with the story of Margaret Keane. The storyline pretty much followed real life events. The acting was outstanding, especially Amy Adams as Margaret Keane. Didn't know a lot of the supporting cast, except for Terence Stamp, who happens to be one of my all-time favorites. As he has proved several times over the years, Mr. Burton got the most out of what he had to work with. Excellent script, some thought-provoking lines as well as some snappy conversation. Danny Elfman's score was fantastic. I can always count on him to get the job done. One of the only problems I had with the movie was the timing if the trial. After watching the movie, check out the real story on Wikipedia and you'll see what I am talking about. Overall, one of the best movie's I've seen in a few years. Go check it out; you won't be disappointed!
