What, no 'I, Tonya'?

The script and editing are stars of the show. Whoops, there is Allison Janney as well. Let's face it, Robbie is too damned good looking to be Harding and it was distracting. But, Janney shined as the malevolent, evil mom who is so over-the-top that you can't wait to see her in her next scene. She conveyed that fine line between psycho and comedian and should give a big run for the gold.
It seems everybody was bopping the hell out of Tonya as she grew up. Janney was pounding on her then her meek, mild husband got in on the action as soon as they were married. His behavior was incongruent with his violence and, typically, they would part and come back together for another round.
The Kerrigan incident (supposedly) was dreamed up by her husband's doofus friend without Tonya being completely aware of what was going down. In theory, his actions were NOT sanctioned by Tonya or her husband. So history goes.
This is a funny and somewhat melodramatic look at the poor girl who never had a chance. The script and editing were outstanding with all the meaningful flashbacks that occurred. One thing, it's good to NOT be Tonya Harding.
