Match the Lifetime movie title with its plot!
In opening up Shatterfaced after our month-long break, I thought I'd offer a game: Can you match the Lifetime film to its plot? There are seven movies, and eight plots - one of which I have created myself to throw you off a bit. The answers are at the bottom.
Good luck!
1. The Book of Ruth
2. Nightmare at the End of the Hall
3. My Daughter's Secret
4. She's Too Young
5. Mom at Sixteen
6. Dead at 17
7. Tell Me No Lies
A. Marcia Gay Harden delivers a compelling performance as the concerned mother of a 14 year-old girl who is pressured by her friends into having sex.
B. Danielle Panabaker offers an honest and touching portrayal of a girl agonizing over what's in the best interest of her child born out of wedlock.
C. A writer teaching at the prep school she attended encounters a student who seems to be the reincarnation of her dead classmate.
D. A young woman, raped repeatedly by her grandfather when she was seven, vows revenge at his weekly game of Bridge with his friends.
E. A strong adaptation of Jane Hamilton's bestseller about an oppressive mother, her insecure daughter, and the young woman's husband.
F. A woman and her daughter become distant after the teen denies responsibility for stealing and wrecking her mother's car, but the mom begins to suspect that something much more sinister happened that night.
G. A single mother grows concerned about her teen daughter's behavior following a robbery at the jewelry store where her mom works.
H. A woman searches for the truth behind her son's apparent suicide and uncovers the teen's connection to a crime that involved others willing to kill to keep their secret.

You had me sold on the grandfather rapist - if you need a reference when you apply to Lifetime I'll vouch for you.

Are we allowed to use the same answer twice? Because I'm pretty sure "She's Too Young" applies to all of those synopses (as well as about 80% of my thoughts everyday).

I'm incredibly disappointed that my all-time favorite Lifetime movie failed to make an appearance in this quiz - Small Sacrifices, starring Farrah Fawcett as a mother who turns around and shoots her three young children who are in the backseat of her car as she is driving along a country road in the first minute and a half of what then turns out to be a four hour movie.
