Kristen Stewart & Chloe Sevigny |
When she saw what she had done,
She gave her father forty-one.
We all know the poem more than 120 years after Lizzie Borden offed her parents and got away with it. In this flick, there's no doubt that she did it.
The question is why.
The answers are many, and yet, they don't add up. Lizzie, with Sevigny in the title role, and Stewart as her maid and lover, is a beautiful period piece that doesn't rise to the darkness of the plot. We still don't know what made Lizzie tick. Maybe that's for the best.
