good talk
I, Tonya is pretty-good, and I think Allison Janney might get some votes for Best Supporting, she was funny. Margot Robbie is a good-actress and nice-looking, but the oldest Tonya Harding got on the ice was "23", and she was quite-pretty. Those of us around in 1994 saw a tragic-stream of events. Tonya was most prominent in 1991, but had enuf left to finish 4th at the 1992 Winter Olympics. An asthmatic who smoked, she never overcame her bad-origins, her mother LaVonna started her very-young, her first-sponsor gave-up after a year, as LaVonna would be beating Tonya with hairbrush in the Restroom, if she didn't skate good, and would be heard loudly using bad-language. She idolized her father, but he left her mother (once described by a reporter as "addled rage") and Tonya, tho not before having taught her to hunt (she took a deer), and do auto-mechanics (she later worked in a hardware-store and today does semi-skilled labor). Her half-brother from one of LaVonna's several marriages, tried to rape-her, tho she was able to fend him off and call police, later, when he died doing some criminal-enterprise, she said she was glad of it, and refused to go to his funeral. The Incident--Nancy Kerrigan was whacked-across the knee, Tonya and her husband, Jeff Gilooly, were involved. Nancy recovered, and won the Silver Medal at the 1994 Winter Olympics, and it should have been the Gold, the Eastern Bloc voted for the Ukranian girl. One of Tonya's skate-strings broke (you'd think they'd have some entras close at hand, they didn't, Tonya crying, looking like she was "3" years old, finally got a good-lace in there, but could only finish 8th. Later, Nancy Kerrigan's brother was involved in a struggle with their father, and the Old Man. who had heart-disease, died, and her brother served a couple years in jail for the assault. The entire-thing was a big mess, end-to-end. Tonya gets money if the movie makes ample, it's well-worth seeing
