Summary: Tracey Gold shines
Comment: This has got to be one of my favorite lifetime movies that deals with the ever growing issues of young girls and eating disorders. I am 19 and a sufferer of an eating disorder myself, and I really admire Tracey Gold for everything she's done, especially this movie. I can't imagine how difficult it must have been for her to pretend to be engaging in eating disordered behaviors, and play an anorexic girl in this movie, seeing as how it was filmed while she was in recovery from anorexia. Brilliant. Which is another thing that's so great about the movie-the fact that its so real. The rest of the cast is great too, and you can almost feel their pain as you watch them watch their daughter/sister/niece/friend starve herself, nearly to death.
The wonderful thing about this movie is that it not only shows the damaging mental, emotional, and physical effects that the sufferer feels, but it also shows the devastating effect that it has on the sufferers loved ones.
Another great thing about the movie is the ending. While its typical that nancy (the main character in the movie) recovers, she also has a very inspirational message at the end that brings me to tears

Comment: Good show to explain an eating disorder. Not the best I have ever seen. End is unrealistic

Summary: One of My Favorites On the Subject
Comment: The movie is one of the few really great ones out there. It's realistic, which sometimes with eating disorders people tend to over act and make it seem too unreal. I reccomend it highly!

Summary: For the love of cheesy made for TV movies...
Comment: This movie is truly one of the most memorable of all TV movies. It is by no means a good movie, but it is truly enjoyable, sad, and sometimes funny. I know this is insensitive given the "too close to home" nature of the issue for Tracy Gold, but this movie is very predictable and corny.
And by all means, I find it endlessly entertaining.

Summary: Great Movie
Comment: I have always been a big fan of this movie. It is very hard to find. I was surprised when I found it on Amazon for as cheap as I did. A great price for a great movie.
