Why am I convinced that Michael will protrayed as a loving husband trying to do what is best. I hope I am wrong.

On the one hand, I'm inclined to think you'd be right on the money. The MSM has gone through such lengths to bury the truth about this case, and I don't think they're about to let it all be undone by a movie. On the other hand, I don't know how they could possibly portray him as a loving husband without completely out and out lying about the facts - not just distorting or exaggerating, but lying. I've noticed that most news reports on her case, while they promoted the pro-death view in general, were not terribly sympathetic to Michael himself, because deep down I think even they knew that there's just nothing sympathetic about him at all.

It'll be interesting to see what they do with this movie, though. But I'd probably have to find out from someone else, because I don't know if I'd be able to stomach it.

You're convinced because you and I both know the truth about this monster; and he is a monster.

I believe that not only will Michael be seen as a loving, caring husband - so will the lawyer and the courts - while Terri's parents will be villified as wanting control of her so they could get to the trust money - and it will ignore the fact that the husband used the trust money to pay for lawyers to find a way to kill her.

I will not be watching.

Terri's father will be portrayed as a raving lunatic, Terri's mom as a doting psychopath, and Michael will be portrayed as a torn and embattled soul who stands up to the evils of the Christian lunatics.

Terri will be played by a bag of potting soil.

This I gotta see.
