I WATCHED THIS MOVIE FOR MY 2023 MOVIE CHALLENGE
WEEK 2: A DOCUMENTARY
Review: In the year 2015, the lifeless body of Deedee Blanchard was found. She was
lying on her bed in a pool of blood and had presumably been dead for several
days. There was no trace of Gypsy Rose, her sick daughter. She was later linked
to her mother’s death. During the police investigation, it became clear that
terrible things were going on inside the walls of the mother and daughter’s
home.
Gyspy Rose has always been
in and out of the hospital. She doesn’t know any better. But it turns out that she
was never sick at all and her mother Deedee kept her sick, by giving her
medication she didn’t need and letting her undergo unnecessary operations. Munchausen
by Proxy is what Deedee suffers from, and a severe form of it.
It’s a pretty disturbing
documentary, hard to understand how someone can do such a thing to child. The
documentary itself was pretty straight-forward, the topic was interesting,
devastating, shocking and disturbing.
Rating: 3/ 5
