the name of the ted danson movie is something about amelia. it is available on videotape--i've seen it on shelves. also, child prostitution: pretty baby, by louis malle. and unfortunately, sybil, with sally field (also made for tv), which is about a woman with multiple personalities who was abused by her mom. also (gee, these titles keep coming to me...): closetland, starring alan rickman and madeleine stowe. it's a strange and specifically political film, directly linking state abuses and violations with child/women's abuses. also, love crimes, by lizzie borden and starring sean young and patrick bergin. her pathologies now are linked to her abuse as a child, at the hands of her mother. and a new movie--out next month nationally--called blink. i have seen it. madeleine stowe is a woman who was blinded by her mom's physical abuse... traumatic stress stuff. cindy fuchs
