Our suggestions
"The crimes of Lizzie Borden remain one of the greatest mysteries of American justice - and of American popular culture. To this day, speculation continues as to whether she was guilty of the murder of her father and stepmother, killed by axe in a never fully explained crime. 'Lizzie' brings this story (and its mystery) to a new generation, in an intense period drama with strong performances. It's not, obviously, a paradigm shift in psychological thrillers, but the Oscar-nominated Chloë Sevigny (Boys Don't Cry) and Kristen Stewart (Personal Shopper) performances are more than enough reason to watch the film."
