(4) YA A somewhat melodramatic but nevertheless appealing retelling of the infamous crime that gripped Fall River, Massachusetts, in 1892, when Lizzie Borden was accused of murdering her father and stepmother in cold blood. The sometimes clumsy, clichéd dialogue doesn't overly detract from the fast-paced narrative told in the believable voice of the family maid, Bridget.
