    Film based on the last few days of the life of christine chubbuck called christine

    I was aware of this sad event for quite some time now, in 1974 a tv show host in florida named christine chubbuck shot herself live on the air 8 minutes into the broadcast of her show. She suffered from depression and her job and frustration about the news only being about blood and gore. One day she asked for an wpisode to be taped and took her life live on the air. I wasn't aware of a film being mde, it stars michael c hall and rebecca hall. It looks like a haunting and dramatic film

    Weird about a month ago footage was being passed around as her "real suicide footage." It was quickly debunked. Hopefully it wasn't a shitty viral champaign for the film. This does look interesting.

    I doubt it, looks like this film came out last year and just hit dvd this year. I doubt someone would create a sick viral video like that.

    Well they did but it just probably had little to do with the film, aside from maybe renewing interest in her life. Her old station manager had to be called in to convince everyone it was fake. The video was shot at a distance but he confirmed the only camera on her when she took her life was on a close up.

    This film was fantastic watched it a few nights ago on netflix, very well directed and acted and I like little details everywhere it really like the 70s. I also liked how they showed how news technology worked in the 70s and things were done in that time period. The acting from rebecca hall was great it was a brilliant performance. The film had a mix of being sad but sometimes a little humor for some added levity. It was a great period piece as well as a remarkable drama that really brought christine to life at least this movie version felt like you were watching a real person
