Lifetime

Murder suspect Jodi Arias arrives in prison looking like a scared bunny. Without access to outside news, she is able to befriend fellow prisoners, Donavan Bering and Tracy Brown. Once Donavan is released from prison, she becomes Jodi's advocate in the media.This is a functional Lifetime movie. I didn't see the earlier Lifetime Jodi Arias movie. In this one, Jodi is not really the lead. It's more about Donavan and Tracy. The drama is not that high. It's a prison movie, but I never felt threatened. It's an interesting little insight into Jodi, but it's not really that dramatic. It's fine for Lifetime.

Interesting and gripping

I was really drawn into this prison drama, which follows up on Jodi Arias while she is awaiting trial for the murder of her boyfriend, Travis, and denying that she killed him.At prison in Arizona, Jodi's cellmate Tracy is at first hostile, considering Jodi a snitch, but gradually trust builds, as artistically gifted Jodi flouts prison rules to give Tracy a signed tattoo (where Jodi had learned this skill, one can only wonder).The physically imposing Tracy offers some much needed-protection to fish-out-of-water Jodi, who occupies herself with such activities as singing (i.e. "Amazing Grace") and vocabulary-building.We also meet Tracy's girlfriend, Donavan, who, upon release from prison, kindly agrees to help Jodi. Donavan soon comes to regret her efforts, but finds solace in supporting Jodi's mother and ailing dad, who says Jodi's no angel, but "she's still our daughter."The performances here are excellent -- particularly Tricia Black as the quietly observant Donavan. As Tracy, Lynn Rafferty is convincing as the type of inmate you want on your side if you're imprisoned. Celena Sinden excels as Jodi of the silken tresses, nailing mannerisms familiar from publicity about the case. I also enjoyed Elias Edracki in the small role of Bricker, a prison guard with inimitable stare-down skills.Much to my surprise, this movie ends happily -- for Donovan and Tracy, who, it turns out, did not have to be together to remain a couple. Good for them!
