Skunkyrate Gripping story with well-crafted characters

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

monkeyinspace So, someone decided to throw out everything we know about police work, how victims of abductions are treated, the law and the media in high profile cases.Then they wrote Thirteen.Sure, its riveting if you can ignore all the inaccuracies. But there's a problem - there are far too many to ignore.A victim wouldn't be brought in for questioning without a lawyer present. A victim wouldn't be subjected to dozens of interviews where she was blamed for her abduction. The media would leak every aspect of her case, everyday. Someone would eventually agree to sue the police on her behalf. No real policeman would suggest that a victim go to meet her abductor alone. No real policeman would set up a meeting at a mall, and not cover the service entrances. No victim would get through this many police interviews without falling apart on day 3. No police chief would back up a theory that victims of stockholm syndrome should be arrested to force their cooperation in a case they have failed at consistently for thirteen years.Here's the thing. Thirteen isn't just fiction. It's terrible fiction. It just happens to feature enough good acting to keep you watching. But somewhere a little girl is wondering if this is the treatment she's in store for if she ever becomes a victim and unfortunately, she may believe this is how it's going to play out.

bjarias ..this is BBC crime-drama at its best... ..all the way through, right up to the very end.. ..the writing and acting is perfect....this is a story having been told many times before.. ..but this time in a way that lets you feel is fresh....for a young actor only 25 years old.. ..she's done some substantial work.. check her credits.. ..she'd be a full-fledged star in this country.. ..better to stay put, and keep appearing in top notch work....bravo.. all round !!https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5159916/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2

odette-521-562860 Really enjoyed this mini series..... Ivy was very convincing as a 26yr old who'd been shut away for 13 years. Acting was great, all the characters were good. The very end scene was so disappointing though. Almost as if the writer just had to end the story in two minutes flat. Everything was plausible except that final scene with the explosion. A fire without the explosion would have been more convincing. More of an effort could have been made there.Being familiar with Bristol made it doubly enjoyable as i saw familiar places on screen.Other than that... it's good. well done.

diana-y-paul The BBC mini-series Thirteen (available online) follows 26-year-old Ivy Moxam, who was held captive in a cellar for thirteen years. After escaping from her attacker's prison, she returns to her family home outside of London, but struggles to put her life back together. There is an uncanny resemblance to the story in the American television series, The Family.Thirteen presents the police investigation as a secondary plot and focuses on the victim's situation and psychology, touching upon the Stockholm syndrome and the fragility and unreliability of memory. Everyone closely associated with the crime is also, in some way, a victim. Read the entire review -- "Thirteen"--"An Unlucky Life" at: www.unhealedwound.com and let me know what you think!
