Amanda Knox Story on Lifetime TV
Watch the Amanda Knox Story on Lifetime TV on Monday at 9 p.m. This is a true-life story about an American student who is attractive, seemingly carefree, but is accused of murdering a roommate in Italy.
Robert Dornhelm directed skillfully in Italy and Hayden Panettiere is subtly perfect, making Knox warm, fun, fragile and bizarre.
The movie revolves around the stabbing death of British student Meredith Kercher in the town of Perugia in Italy in November 2007.
The victim’s roommate Amanda Knox and her Italian boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito were convicted in 2009 of sexually assaulting and killing the 21-year-old. A third killer Rudy Guede, an Ivory Coast citizen, was convicted of participating in the slaying in a separate trial.
Their appeals trials are under way. [via]
