Featured review
One of the best TV movies I've ever seen
I used to love the TV movies from the 70s & 80s. Then in the 90s the whole genre sort of...I don't know....but form 1990 on there really haven't been any great ones worth mentioning. Except for HER LAST CHANCE. HER LAST CHANCE was a TV movie in 1996. I watched it not expecting much and fell in love with it. It stars Kellie Martin (Life Goes On) as a girl who likes to party hearty and has no idea why her mother would put her in a re-hab clinic. "I never dropped out of high school, I never stole, its not like I was a Drug Lord"...these are all things Kellie says. When she finally DOES break down and accept the help from the program (and her counselor Jenna "Dharma" Elfman), she gets released and doesn't follow the first big rule: do NOT hang out with your old friends who still party. Of course the first person she hooks up with on her first day out is her no-good boyfriend.And soon she's back to partying with her old friends like she did in the...ahem...."Good Old Days". I want to take a moment to say that some scenes of this movie...particularly some of the scenes where she's partying with her friends...reminded me of some of the partying days I had as a teenager, and I also had to agree now that Im an adult that the first big rule about not hanging out with your old friends is true. If I still partied with my old friends Im pretty sure I wouldn't be here right now. But I digress..... the movie also has a sub-plot about a murder thrown in. THAT parts a little silly and unnecessary, and I,nor Im sure other audience members could NOT identify with that. But all-in-all a good movie that they sometimes play on LIFETIME network(I taped it from them last week!)
