The Girl From Plainville | Trailer | Hulu
• The Girl From Plainvil...
I’m shocked how well they made Elle look exactly like the real life Michelle. The resemblance was eerily uncanny
She does not
cara delivigne would’ve definitely perfected this role but elle was a great choice as well
@@bgebre4031 Cara Delevigne perhaps a bit too old for the role.
@@bgebre4031 but Cara can’t act. It is much more important to act well. Also, they did a great job with the hair and makeup on Elle! She looks very similar to the real person.
@@lenah96 elle was an alright choice but her resemblance is completely carried the dark eyebrows... makeup can only go so far. cara has the looks and the acting experience.
Elle looks soooo much like the actual girl in that thumbnail I couldn't make out its her. But I always thought she looked more like Cara Delivigne 😆 in a rough way
Same everytime I see her
@@yucabeth i thought it was Cara! I got confused when I saw Elle
The Vortex - Save the World by Church Militant.
She's definitely giving Cara Delivigne in this role, that's who I thought it was.. based on the brows
It’s the eyebrows!
We don’t have to make EVERY horrible crime into a dramatized tv show. Rest in peace Conrad💙
I am hoping this will bring hope to mental illness and how much influence words can have over someone who’s sick
@@LilithsCosmicLounge You’re right. I hope it does more good then harm. I think the issue when true things like this are dramatized a lot becomes fabricated like the in between stuff and people can become desensitized to it.
@@cassilove6606 Yeah, but how much money did they have to pay Michelle Carter to use her likeness? That's the problem with these movies.
That’s America.
we do. 2022 is the year of the girlboss.
I remember Kendall Rae made a video about this case years ago. It's such a sad and awful story. I'm not sure what good making a movie about it will do, but I hope they show as much respect for Conrad and his family as possible in this.
Same.
@k o a l That's not what I said at all. 🤨 Conrad and his family shouldn't be exploited just so people can make money off of his story of the tragic way he died. And do you know these people personally? How would you know his parents are to blame? This girl knew he was planning to commit suicide, and instead of telling his family, her parents, or the authorities, she encouraged him and pushed him to go through with it. Did his family do that? No. She had a very heavy hand in this tragedy, regardless of what you might ignorantly think.
@@rebecaa7482 they are saying their was domestic abuse going on in the home between the mother and father and that Conrad’s father had beat him up one day and there are police reports that prove it. I don’t know what to believe. There is no such thing as perfect home life or family. But I do not think his parents are to blame. I don’t think they seen this coming. I can not say the same for her who he called in the process of killing himself, he told her he was scared because his truck was filling with poison and instead of telling him to get help, calling the police anything to help him, instead she told him to get back in. That to me says a lot. I live a town away from Conrad Roy’s family and I’ve heard many people say good things about this family I do not know them. This is just my opinion.
@k o a l do you know the Roy’s personally? How do you know they are trash?
Agreed.
A lot of people here are saying that Cara Delevigne should’ve played her but In my opinion Elle Fanning is a much better actress, it looks amazing!
shes too old now . before yes not anymore. elle looks good
oh.. i thought it was Cara
Yeah lets leave the acting to actors and modelling to human clothes hangers
@@DannyCosmos she’s still looks young, if anything, Elle looks old
@@0P9ine yea but let’s get good actress then not some boring basic white girl
That “Who’s Conrad?” from the mom is chilling. They didn’t know she had a bf because she didn’t tell them.
Why is that chilling
Their relationship ways primarily via text and phone calls. They lived in different cities and met in person like 5 times.
I felt the same, it's really chilling, this started very deep.
It’s pretty normal for a mentally ill teenager to keep things to themselves. Not chilling in the least.
right? i also found it chilling. it says a lot about her and their situation
I just hope that they show how the parents were a contributing factor too, and dont act like they were the victims.
Me too. I hate how the media basically made it a story about how she was this horrible person. After watching the HBO documentary, it was quite clear the real picture was quite a bit different. He had a history of depression and suicidal thoughts (IIRC other attempts also). His home life was dysfunctional and his father was abusive (police were called at one point).
@chellymrdillon Conrad's father was abusive to him (police were called and conrad had marks on his face--this was all over Conrad not putting away a dish--) and I just don't think (in my opinion) his parents cared enough about his mental problems considering Conrad attempted suicide numerous times and his mom claimed she really didn't know what was going on with him
@@FlowerChild65 his home life was awful but that doesn’t absolve the girl of what she did. The parents were awful and so was her
@@user-xd3sx3nc6z yeah i dont get how everyones just disregarding the actual text messages of her telling him to do it. Conrads parents and her are a big including factor. He was already having a hard time , and she encouraged him to do it. With how to do it, when, where.
@@sha9496 And I don't get how people are disregarding that she spent two years trying to talk him out of it while dealing with her own problems. It does not in anyway excuse what she did but they were both severely unstable and in need of help. This whole case was a gray zone in the law and it's why Judge Moniz was so explicitly clear when he announced the decision in the case.
they even got her eyebrows right.... cant wait to watch
They totally did!
She looks JUST LIKE HER. I think we need to give props to the true star of this movie. The gigantic 5 head recreated for this series
@@matthewotoole4347 🤣
@@matthewotoole4347 “The gigantic 5-head recreated” 😂💀
The eyebrrooowwssss
This case is incredibly heart breaking but I’m honestly pretty upset to see another movie about Michelle. She is a deeply disturbed human and doesn’t deserve this type of attention. My heart goes out to Conrad’s family.
Well she’s the preferred phenotype so they are going to milk and promote it 🤣
😂 neither the tinder guy but we love it
another movie? oh man!
Do you know her?
TBH I don't blame her he kept agonizing her about it and everything NOW HES GONE FINALLY
Elle Fanning is an actress that everybody knows is good, but yet so many people don't know just how good she is. She's up there with Saoirse Ronan, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Florence Pugh as one of the best actresses of her age range.
Yh i love her and all of dem
She's amazing in the great :) I love her but she makes Michelle Carter seem too loveable lol
Anyone who is not watching this is missing out on an amazing performance by Elle Fanning. Respect
She’s bomb.
yes! totally agree. she's underrated!
I’d like to thank the Producers of this for NOT casting Cara Delivigne. Looks like I need to renew my Hulu subscription.
Why would they? Cara is too old to portray a teenager…
@@loonaloona2273 Well because, when the media coverage of this case was happening, everyone was commenting how much the real girl looked like Cara. But I also am glad they cast Elle who definitely has the acting chops for this role.
@@loonaloona2273 guess you’ve never seen a teen show, all actors are in their late 20s to 30s 😂😂😂😂
because cara sucks at acting.
Wait...u mean thats not Cara Delvigne?
Elle Fanning continues to do such interesting work. She’s rather phenomenal.
🌼💙✊🤍💙🤍
She's great.
LIAR…….!!!!!!!! 😠 😡
I really hope she wins an Oscar especially Dakota Fanning her older sister. They both are good actors.
Somewhat amazing you could say.
I'm really on the fence about this. On the one hand, it looks very well made and its the kind of story that makes good television. On the other hand, this was a horrible tragedy that actually happened and Michelle is the kind of sociopath who's going to revel in having a show about her.
You should watch the HBO documentary, it shows that the both of them had very severe mental illnesses, he was very abusive towards her and they were toxic to each other, a real tragedy, she needed a lot of help too.
@@josselin165 Yes! She isn't "evil" its so complicated.
@@clairesullivan6947 exactly and he would’ve done it anyway imo whether he met Michelle or not. Also had a bad relationship with his father
@@josselin165 I've seen the doco too, and I still believe she's guilty
Im on the fence bc of the families, both of them and mitchelle too
YIKES! This really didn’t need to be a tv show or be glamorized at all. Kind of insensitive to be honest.
Yeah the subject matter is not something I want to spend an hour and a half with.
They're making a ton of these true crime adaptations lately and it feels so gross and unnecessary.
Imagine the family watching it...
you haven't even watched it yet...
@@meyekol don’t need to I know what happened
I’m sure Michelle is enjoying this type of attention, my heart goes for the boyfriend’s family, this is gonna hurt so much.
this is the sad part. she will. and they probably will "humanise" her and paint her as a victim of circumstance.
And this is an awful attitude to have, just by watching the documentary you can tell she is a complete mess. Conrad was also a complete mess, had a father admitting to beating him up and saying it was right and he would do it again, a mother who denies ever knowing he was feeling suicidal eventhough he had tried 4 times before with 1 of them putting him in hospital. There isn’t even any evidence that she ever told him to get back in the car, it was never written in a text and the calls aren’t recorded, after 2 months she claimed she told him to get back in, this is a girl so out of touch with reality that she had been contradicting herself constantly and now suddenly what she says has gotta be true. The fact is that Conrad wanted to die, he convinced her that nothing would ever get better and this would be best for him, he made her believe his mum was on board with it, he manipulated her into supporting him and made her swear to never tell anyone, if he never met her he would still be dead today because clearly his parents weren’t gonna get him the help he needed. This girl wasn’t living in reality at all, she wanted desperately to help him and he manipulated her into believing this was the best way. The only things at blame here is mental illness and Conrad’s parents.
She is the most innocent one on this case. If you even read the report at all. You can clearly see the girl had done nothing but discouraged him for months. Even Conrad at some point suggesting HER to commit suicide as well. And thats aside from constantly talking down to her. Nothing She or anyone could say or do would prevent him from commiting suicide, He had planned it for a long long time. He made up his mind & the girl was the only person He could even speak to
@@shabrinaz9877 this whole comment is a yikes honey
He wasn't all that normal either. The way he texted her and talked about killing himself was not normal. He wasn't even confiding in someone he knew but someone he could take advantage of. She has mental health issues too. I don't think it mattered that he told her about his thoughts of that she told him to do it. He was inevitably going to do it no matter what.
Elle is an amazing actress! The eyebrows make the look.
Cannot wait to watch this, Elle is gonna be amazing in this role! This case is absolutely insane
It's a case with real people involved, yes. Unlike how non-human people acting as though this is "exciting" are.
@@mightytaiger3000 okay?
The real crime is Michelle Carter’s eye browns
@@mightytaiger3000 you’re the one that clicked on the video, boo boo. Better jump back in the freezer lest you melt. The world is clearly too stressful for you. Other people existing and all.
Elle looks perfect as Michelle. The same facial expression and everything.
Maybe it’s an unpopular opinion but as someone with mental health issues I do connect to this series so far. It’s been hard to watch but doesn’t feel sensationalized. I’ve watched a lot of crime dramas based on real subject matter and this one in particular seems to not have lost sight on the severity of the matter. The heavy issue at hand feels like it’s own always-present character of its own. Chloe sevigny and Colton Ryan are just amazing in this, by the way. I truly feel and hope that this show can raise awareness. That’s just my two cents.
Ima gonna go ahead and say it… Chloë Sevigny is one of THE best yet under appreciated character actors in the past decade…she nailed this role as she does everything she does.
I love her. Always have. I have been fascinated with her since the 90’s when she made her debut in “KIDS”
@@jillian5582 I LOVED her early stuff like “Kids” and “54” 🖤She has such “girl next door” appeal.
I loved her in big love.
Hulu is knocking it out of the park in 2022! The Dropout is fantastic! Amanda Seyfried IS Elizabeth Holmes. And now this. This story is fascinating. I recommend watching the documentary, ‘I Love You, Now Die.’
The dropout is truly amazing and Amanda is killing it, can't wait for this too, i'm a fan of Elle and this story is messed up.
@@KanadeLapis I’m so impressed with Amanda. I think she’s going to win Best Actress for this role.
@@b-dub6865 Same!! She better win!
A friend of mine from college went to school with this girl at the time this happened. She didn’t know her well, but she knew her. She said it was the most shocking thing that ever happened in her life
Wow but imagine how shocking that was
Omg wow. I love Elle. The way they make her look on her court days is scary accurate to the real girl. I can’t wait to see her in this!
I’m not too sure about this… this only happened a few years ago and not enough time has passed to turn this horrible tragedy into a tv show for entertainment purposes.
Agreed
I’m sure they pass it by the family first. Plus family has to be interviewed for a show like this.
@@cindypineda7122 ha ha ha no they dont....
How many years do you think should pass between a tragedy and a film adaptation?
The uncanny resemblance of Elle in that court scene is astounding, like goosebumps
I can’t believe they actually made a show about this poor boys death. Disgusting. The media will do anything to make money these days!
Do you really think this is the first of its kind? Sure it’s gross, but it’s not new. Y’all will do anything to blame the big bad media. Take off your tin foil hat
ok karen
I’m under no impression the media is disgusting and takes advantage any change they get. I’ve seen lots similar too this and I have the same opinion about all of the and refuse to watch all of them! I’m definitely not wearing a tin foil hat, I just have some bloody morals!
It's the "poor boys death" for me
Get a grip death shouldn’t be something so taboo to talk about, we’re all gonna die one day we might as well make movies about it and talk about it, I don’t see anything wrong with this.
They really shouldn't make movies based on real people like this. It's incredibly disrespectful, and it's certainly won't be a positive influence on anyone, PLUS we would never be able to know the real story unless we were there. This is really sad to see.
ok then don’t watch
@@heleynaaaa I'm planning not to. The reason why I wanted my statement shown to the public is because I think it will have a negative impact on society, and I think people should reflect on that thought. I'm not just try to be negative, or have an opposing opinion just for the sake of it. I hope this doesn't come across negatively, I'm just hoping that people would make healthier choices for themselves, and others rather than amusing ourselves to death.
@@YOUWILLPERISH fair
Not making movies based on real people would cut out a looooot of movies, you know. Plus, at what point does it become "okay" to make movies about real people? A year? Five years? A decade? A century? Nobody can say for sure.
@@MicheleNichols2 Yeah, you're right.
The first line in this trailer is so chilling. Maybe because my name is Conrad.
And your last name is Studios, right?
@@Markunator and from now on, he'll be known as Conrad... JAY Studios.

Shut up concrete. 😉🤜✌️☺️
Creeps me out I'm in this parking lot so frequently. Always gives me the chills
I’m fromFairhaven where this actually took place and it’s a nightmare that doesn’t seem to go away.
Wow, I’m so sorry! Did you know the people who were involved?
@@jasminewashington5953 no my son is a bit younger than these two kids. It has hit us so hard though as a town 😞
the acting is awesome. Always amazed at how well Elle acts her parts. Very good portrayal of how the family handles this horrible situation.
The glee lea michele (Rachel) signing to Cory (Finn) scene was insane!
Criminals are always getting glamorized with these biopics. I’m sure it’s offensive to the family of the victims. I just don’t think people deserve recognition and praise for doing wrong.
Is it praise though? Sure it's recognition but idk how you see it as praise.
@@houseboat1101 The end of the trailer it was depicting her as if she had a right to do what she did. She said she loved him and only wanted to help? Any form of recognition is a trophy to criminals, they love being recognized. A movie seals the deal for them.
@@777violett I don't think Hulu is trying to portray her version of events to be the truth. They are just trying to get across how hard she tried to convince everyone that she didn't do anything wrong. People like her rarely take responsibility, I just think they were trying to show that.
@@777violett girl if you watch shows or movies and think that what any characters say is the absolute truth or is exactly what they're trying to portray, I'm afraid you haven't understood most things you are watching
What do you mean by 'glamourised' though? Speaking as someone who has been on the receiving end of female bullying and abuse, and who has been pushed to consider suicide and self-harm, I like that this film is presenting Michelle Carter as she is; an outwardly attractive young woman, who is also an inwardly terrible human-being. Remember, looks can be deceiving, and outer beauty does not confer inner beauty.
First we have Amanda Seyfreid in The Dropout bodying the voice and look and NOW we got Elle Fanning looking exactly like her in this! Hulu is coming for awards season
Agreed! I’m watching both and they are amazing
The biggest mystery to me is why did she do her eyebrows like that during trial?
Aren't those her natural eyebrows?
Ikr. The rest of the trailer, she didn’t have those THICK, HEAVY, PAINTED eyebrows
Yeah that was so bizarre!
@@seren4740 They aren’t natural, Michelle has blonde eyebrows (Elle too of course) Really bizarre fashion choice for the courtroom
This looks really good but this is also such a well edited trailer. Especially towards the end
They casted the actress so good, i already knew what case this movie was based on just by looking at her in the thumbnail
Justifying or feeling sympathy for a girl who took advantage of a guy in a vulnerable state to try and convince him to end his life? Even when he actually snapped out of it didn’t want to go through. She pushed him and mentally gaslit him to go back to the car and proceed. We are doing that right now? Don’t care how hard her life was. The guy could have still been alive today if it weren’t for her. She’s a monster.
Honestly the trailer makes her look very cold and calculating. I’m not sure that the show will show her much sympathy. That said, I don’t think we need a show about an event like this.
@@crowem3468 I hope not. It kind of seems like it’s showing her as cold but there’s a strong feeling that they might try to make her seem like a victim or at-least try to redeem her and make us feel sympathetic.
They should care about the truth. Research the best they can the portray it honestly. Whether or not she’s a cold hearted monster or someone can sympathize, their job is to the tell the story. Never mind in the trailer she seems like a crazy attention hungry psycho but you don’t pay everyone’s Hulu fees.If you don’t like movies trying to get the character’s perspective why watch something based on real people? Plenty of one dimensional bs to fill the hours up. If they didn’t try to under her motives then they should have never done the movie. Period.
I feel like the new trend in biopics is not to justify the aggressor, but to show that very often they look at themselves as the hero in their own story. Sometimes giving the monster a chance to 'explain' to us why we're no different and what their motivations were opens a door into their psyche. Not for just entertainment, but to educate and inform. Go back 100 years and see how unlikely it would be for an average member of the American public to believe a young white girl would do this successfully. I absolutely think these are types of stories that need to be told, I just really hope they do a good job of being respectful.
Thank you!! First normal comment I've seen here...the amount of people defending her makes me sick....if it was the other way around nobody would be showing him any sympathy
Been waiting for a show about this. Tragic situation but it’s good to shed light on situations like this one. Tragic stuff but must be shown.
Oh my goodness I’ve followed this case for so so long. I’m so excited to see this
I'm not sure if I may watch this. I remember being very shocked by this story when I first heard about it and it was only several years ago, so not that long ago. I'm sure Elle Fanning will be great in the role and the showrunners telling this story the best as possible, but it's also such a sad and tragic story that I might feel a bit uncomfortable watching it. I'll try giving it a shot.
Yeah it feels a bit exploitative . I’m sick of streaming services taking horrible crimes and turning them into pass time entertainment
@@WickerSticksSinema I’ve recently been watching The Dropout on Hulu and when it comes to real life stories like that, it doesn’t feel as miserable or tragic when watching that story unfold compared to this tragedy that happened several years ago. I personally had not heard about the story behind Elizabeth Holmes before and the premise behind what the show is about did intrigue me because I hadn’t seen a story like that before.
The dad is the real problem. Mom too. Both kids are victims.
Exactly! the parents are reasons why they turn out the way they did. I'm not sympathizing with Michelle, but this all could have been prevented if she had gotten help.
Never thought they'd make a movie out of this story.
I literally remember this story it was so crazy when it was going on
This trend of criminals getting romanticized series with inspirational speeches is bizarre…. strange times indeed
Followed this case since the beginning! So excited for this
For me Elle is the best actress for her generation. What she did in the Great is outstanding.
Huzzah
Wow I thought they had the actual girl playing herself 😮💨 great job can’t wait to watch
The way she said Conrad's dead gave me chills
Elle does a wonderful job of her portrayal of Michelle. Hulu is dropping some great originals lately and upping the game of mid scale actresses whose Oscar-worthy talented but that’s been awaiting that one perfect role to shoot them to a whole new level of achievements. Pam & Tommy did this for both Lily James & Sebastian Stan. The Dropout is launching the amazing Amanda Seyfried to a new level of worthy roles in the future. And currently, Life & Beth is giving Amy Schumer a massive outlet to showcase what she’s capable of beyond comedy and standup as it’s not only giving us some more dramatic portrayals but she is behind the creation of the show itself and executive produces as well as writes for it. This is what makes Hulu originals amazing. They found a specific area to go in to be different from the pack of streaming services creating their own originals. Hulu is finding those greats who have yet to prove that and it’s working wonderfully.
Elle Fanning in the courthouse outfit looks very spot on. She looks exactly like Michelle.
Bravo to the hair and makeup team!!! Incredible👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
As soon as saw the trailer on snap stories and the name itself knew it was about the Michelle Carter case. Really horrible what happened to conrad and she was in a dark place as well. Elle fanning looks really similar to her, they did an incredible job picking the right person to play Michelle.
Given how much it was proven in court that she has problems with compulsive lying and not having a healthy grasp of reality, everyone involved in the making of this lousy attempt at glamorizing the death she was involved in, needs their head checked as much as her and HIS parents, whom are largely to blame for his death.
Maybe they'll explore that idk, I still think ill watch to see how they tell the story. It is shocking though reading comments that saying things like "this is my favorite case" or "I can't wait, I hope Elle Fanning wins an Emmy". It feels really unsettling and insensitive. I think they should have left it alone but now I'm just hoping for the best. Maybe that's naive of me but I'm an optimist.
It doesn’t feel they will glamorize it at all, but we’ll see
The Vortex - Save the World by Church Militant.
It doesn’t look like they are glamorizing it. It looks like what it would look like through the eyes of the world. As someone who didn’t know anything about the case at first glance in the start it looks like a girl who very much looked guilty. I say this because most trailers don’t really start by spoiling a death, unless its CSI etc. But like CSI now that we know there’s a death we immediately think the remainder of the show/movie will evolve around this death. The parents empathize and the people unknowing of who she really is act fond of her. The people opposing her, the police and investigators are out right saying what she did was awful. Two sides one opposing one with or unsure of her. Please explain what part of the trailer is glamorizing???
Wait.What? Your comments are a whiplash of vacous , derogatory verse condemming the intelligence of posts you found to be nonsensical, void of common sense ergo,...seek therapy? Your comments are far worse as you were unsuccessful in offending others within this thread. Uplifted to learn you did a Deep Dive in learning all the facts surrounding this tragedy.
As someone who grew up in Fairhaven. The fact she did 11 months for this. Blows my mind!
Be respectful in the comments, yall.. For the sake of both families, they've been through enough already.
Hulu has been KILLING IT recently!!!
Elle is an amazing actress! I can’t wait to watch
I remember hearing about this back in high school. I can’t believe they’re already making an adaptation of it.
I like how the added how the grandfather and father felt about getting help for mental health. Because it really was like that, sadly
I’m from Massachusetts, this was a huge deal here. I’d like to see this. Michelle is very lucky how light her sentence was and still fought it, a truly loathsome person.
She was def responsible for his death
The moment there two met, it became a ticking time bomb. Props to the make up and hair as well as casting. They made Elle Fanning resemble “Michelle Carter” so much especially during the trial and sentencing scene. As well as Chloe Sevigny, she may not look like the mom, “Lynn Roy” but sure sound like her. If you ever watch tv interviews of Lynn Roy.
May be subbing soon this looks good
Incredible acting from everyone in this trailer.
Why doe tv networks always need to do this. Monetizing off of evil, years down the line of these cases. Michelle doesn't deserve any moments of making her look like an angel in this show.
Literally big movie companies have been doing this for YEARS and more years to come, what are you gonna do about it? Stop being so soft
Don’t you watch crime stories?
@@JL_LuxDocumentaries to know whats happening in the world. Different from dramatization of the events to make the story more action-ish or to keep the audience's attention.
@@TheCrazedEB cry me a river..
Dunno I personally like to think that these kinds of movies could be good warnings
I clicked on this because the thumbnail looked uncannily like eyebrow girl as I call her. Will definitely watch. Elle and Chloe are two of my favourite actors.
Such a good one. Pumped to watch this.
Hopefully, this series will bring greater awareness about Mental health.
Hulu be pulling things out of the bag. Watch out Netflix
Lots of comments of how disrespectful this is to the victims and families, but remember, once you become a public figure, a studio can create a film about you and make any sort of narrative they want and it will be "based" on actual events. Hopefully with this film, they use great caution in telling a story that respects all who were affected.
This kid became a public figure because of his death. They could of at least change the characters names. Having someone act out your dead child depression and suicide would be disgusting to see. I feel disturbed watching the trailer
Got to know and become fascinated about this show thanks to the SKYND "Michelle Carter" music video. Definitely going to check this show out
omg ive been waiting for this, im so excited
Elle is so good at her craft. I absolutely love her! This is going to be good.
Wow! this looks real good!!
I will be watch this, as well as doing my research on this case.
Omg she looks just like Michelle!! I know all about this case too. I really want to see this x
I'm so excited to watch this!
Looks so well made...but also very soon. I wonder how the families feel about this.
this is such a crazy case i cant wait to see this
Its absolutely chilling how much she looks like the girl in this. Like...wow.
Rest In Peace Conrad
Everyone saying that Michelle is "evil" or a "sociopath" should really watch the HBO documentary about this case. They BOTH struggled with mental illness and were toxic for each other and Conrad was also extremely manipulative at times. He deserved much more help than he got, but she needed help too. He struggled for years with depression and attempted several times before he met Michelle. He told her over and over again that he wanted to die and needed someone to make him go through with it. She tried to talk him out of it at first but he would say things like "if you really love me you won't let me chicken out, this is the only way for me to be happy" and I think she became convinced that encouraging him to end his life was good and right and even romantic, which is obviously very twisted, but again, she was not in a healthy state of mind either.
Manipulation can be incredibly powerful, especially from someone you care about. In the end, only Michelle knows the true motive. The fact that she told him to go back into the car when he was at his most vulnerable state - that proves her guilt to me.
wow..it looks good but I probably won’t be tuning in. It seems triggering & from someone who has struggled with depression on and off all my life and then with my mental health, I would rather just stay clear from it. Actually I would recommend anyone who struggles with their mental health if it’s not in a good place or if the screening may be triggering. Avoid it.
No. Stop defending her just because she is a woman.
@@FrancoBG I don't think she was defending her for "being a woman". She was putting another perspective that could easily be apply for any gender
That is really sad and I am glad you clarified. I never heard about this story but I got that vibe from watching it.
I thought it was the same girl (the actual criminal/Michelle) for a second. It’s the eyebrows and the way she conveys her contempt through those eyes
y’all have no idea how excited i am.
This actually looks really good, I am going to give it a try.
They really made that girls story into a show 💀
I wanna see this so bad and I hope it comes out on DVD soon.
This is gonna be sooo good omg
I feel extremely sorry for the families involved: The Roy's not only lost a son, they lost the future that he could have had. The Carter's didn't deserve the stress and heartbreak of having a criminal in their family. I think Suicide Coercion is a good label for this case. Michelle DEFINITELY coerced, nagged, badgered, and cajoled Conrad into suicide when she should have been calling 911, his parents, the hospital, her therapist for any other therapist's names to help this boyfriend she supposeiveldly loved. She just wanted to "play" the grieving girlfriend. She was old enough to know better.
well anyone interested in this case should definitely see the hbo documentary. they showed both sides of the case and... i dunno. everyone should keep in mind that they both were very young people with mental health issues, and both were on some pretty strong drugs. you can't really point your finger at one person and say "guilty" as if it were that easy.
“Sorry I ran that guy over officer. I’m young with mental health issues and on some pretty heavy drugs.” See how that doesn’t excuse anything
@@BatmanBeyondBelief so funny! such an enlightening opinion! im sure no one told you that understanding and having empathy doesn't actually mean “excusing” a person or the crimes they may have committed. but i don't really want to argue because there are people like you who just won't get it. have a great day. don't let the intricacies of human behaviour bother you. net result is the boy died and girl had a two year sentence and the rest of her life is going to be hammered by paparazzies and people who love shouting "guilty". im sure it will be just peachy for everyone and justice is served
She's definitely guilty. You can still have sympathy for her, but she's guilty. He got scared and got out of the car and she told him to get back in. I have mental health issues, and never once in my life have I egged someone on to commit suicide.
@@mikaelaisraelsson119 she actually never texted him to get back in the car. That is part of the misinformation of the case. The HBO documentary explains it very well. The media painted her as a one dimensional villain when reality was much more nuanced than that. I’m not saying what she did wasn’t wrong but Conrad already had tried to commit suicide two times before. Sadly it seemed like a matter of time bc he wasn’t getting any help. If anything I would put most of the blame on his parents, his father was physically abusive and his mother was neglectful.
@@marvel096 Okay that's interesting, I'll look into it a little more. But I do have to say that a lot of the times, documentaries like that can also be very biased. Ppl take them as gospel but they're really being sold a certain narrative. Like the Staircase for example. There's probably misinformation out there but documentaries really aren't as reliable as people think they are. They can cherrypick info and manipulate your feelings.
2:11 the way elle push back her hair is accurate!
i remember reading about this case. So sad
I hope people will take away that mental health is not a joke or childish excuse. I say that from a depressed person's perspective.
I hope they focus more on Conrad since he was the victim in all of this
you should watch the HBO documentary about the case, it's really not that black and white
@@hayleywilliamson6141 cool story, she still pushed him to his death
@@theaudjob3267 again, you should watch the documentary.
@@hayleywilliamson6141 I’ve seen it, I have no sympathy for a murderer
@@theaudjob3267 for real
Part of this was filmed in savannah Georgia and I was actually able to meet Elle around last year
Some true stories need to be left alone.
This just feels wrong at least from the trailer I don’t think I’m comfortable watching a dramatized version of an actual tragic story with it being so soon after it happened Rest In Peace Conrad
I wish they would make a movie only about the victim, before it happened, and how happy and normal their life was and how it could be, and completely ignore these criminals, instead of making a movie where THEY are the main character. They don't deserve the attention!
Did you even watch the trailer? It's about both of them and both families.
Omg she is uncannily similar. This case hit me hard.
The up thing about this is she only got 18 months. Don't remember if it was jail time or probation 🤔
