The Karen Carpenter Story (1989 TV Movie)
8/10
Well Researched and Put Together
24 January 2014
I never saw the movie before - the bland TV acting, direction, and production aside, I found the movie well-researched, in that it captured most of the key career moments in their music and performances. I wasn't interested in all the details of their personal lives, and I see critics complained about skimping there, I was more interested in the psychological aspects - the faulty mindsets people had back then, and the issues they faced as a result - self-image being among them, and at the core of the main issue here - anorexia.

Matching an extraordinarily beautiful face with an extraordinarily beautiful voice was intriguing, as it gave new insight into the voice - how extraordinary it really was.
