WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

American figure skater Tonya Harding (Robbie) becomes embroiled in a scandal that sees her accused of planning an attack on fellow Olympic skater and competitor Nancy Kerrigan (Carver), and must also face off against her abusive husband Jeff (Stan) and her monstrous mother LaVona (Janney)…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Margot Robbie is on spectacular form as disgraced figure skater Tonya Harding, as is co-star Allison Janney in a film-stealing turn as her acid-tongued mother, both of whom are rightfully earning praise and awards attention for their magnificent turns in this darkly funny movie.
