MrMidwest, that was on a heavy rotation on the Lifetime network in the early to mid-aughts that I saw the whole thing without watching it from beginning to end in one sitting. Sherilyn was good and Angus Macfadyen was a great choice for Burton as was Ray Wise as Mike Todd (thank god I only discovered Twin Peaks' existence afterwards because Mr. Palmer with Audrey..... eek).
I loved her in Bobby. I hope the work with help her to get and stay healthy. She looks lovely in that cover shot. Liz, Marilyn, Lindsay...ALL beautiful, talented, women who made terrible choices.

I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter
I do agree the picture looks good, but unless they are planning on running photoshop filters on Lohan throughout the entire movie, I don't think she's gonna really look like that.
That said, I always hold out hope that Lindsay is gonna pull it together, so maybe this movie will do it for her.
The black and white shot is nice, but I think Lindsey resembles Liz without the makeup used in that shot. The AMFAR shot is more accurate in her resemblance to Liz, I think!

That picture literally made me scream out loud, "NO! NO! NO!"
I can't wait to see this train wreck.

I think she's wildly miscast. That black and white photo is photoshopped within an inch of its life. There was another promo shot from the set that I recently saw and it looked like typical Lindsay-emaciated, garishly made up to look like some drag queen version of Liz. Not pretty, not respectful.
Liz was never emaciated and never had a whiskey voice. Is Lohan being dubbed?

Hard to believe that any producer would make that gamble with their money.
Mark Ruffalo was asked earlier in his career how such an average guy like him kept getting such good roles. His response was that he was well aware that there were hundreds of guys out there who could probably replace him so he always arrived on time sober, learned his lines, and tried to be helpful. Lindsay is the opposite.

Is this a Lifetime or Oxygen movie? This isn't high profile, is it?
