THE GIRL FROM PLAINVILLE

A Hulu series based upon the "texting suicide" case of Michelle Carter and Conrad Roy III. A terribly tragic story about two youts who suffer from mental illness. Conrad, having tried to commit suicide previously, is having the same urges again and is being talked into following through this time by his girlfriend Carter. A legal case that set precedent in this country, the story is again tragic but the series comes off as average. Elle Fanning who plays Carter and Chloƫ Sevigny who plays Conrad's mom Lynn, are really the only 2 of note. Otherwise, this is a passable but forgettable telling of this tale. 6/10
