    I know this documentary has been out for awhile, but I just saw it for the first time, and 1 day later and I'm still shaking. For those who have seen it, your thoughts? And for those who haven't-well-you need to do so as soon as possible. Try to go in with as little knowledge about this story as possible. For those who have seen it try not to give too many details. Suffice to say, this movie will enrage you, sadden (a really inadequate word here) you, just flat out make you cry, like ugly cry. And just when you thought it couldn't get worse, it does. So now that I've either scared you off or piqued your interest, have at it. It's currently available on Amazon Prime's instant streaming, and YouTube.

    Quite unforgettable, that's for sure.

    I just watched this. I can't even put into words how this film moved me. My God, those poor people. When I found out about the child, I almost couldn't take it myself. It's very maddening, because it could've been prevented, absolutely. Thank God the parents have a ton of supports from their son's friends. It's just...man, it's upsetting.

    Unfortunately, I don't recall the movie's plot that well, but I do recall being outraged and saddened with the outcome. A very tragic and somber piece of filmmaking.

    It's about a man who was murdered by his crazy ex-girlfriend. She had his baby, and there was a legal wrangle, both with the parents of said man trying to get custody of the baby, and the woman having to actually be tried and go to jail. The ending is upsetting.

    That's an understatement. Reading the wiki page alone is upsetting. It's not a 'Friday night and a six pack' film for sure

    I thought that was better than 'the ending had me crying like a baby'!

    A devastating film, but one everyone should see imo. There is evil in this world, but then we have saints like Andrew Bagby's parents to help counterbalance. You'll have this movie on your mind for days after seeing it.
