I finally saw Monster last night (it just now made it to Oklahoma. :does a little happy dance: ) I was curious as to just how accurate the movie was? I’m sure they fudged some (it is Hollywood, after all), but were there any big blunders?
I haven’t had a chance to see it yet–possibly I’ll go this weekend–but maybe this material on Aileen Wuornos might help. I think I recall that director Patty Jenkins had contact with Wuornos and Charlize Theron read a great deal of their correspondence from prison. There’s also a documentary on Wuornos coming out called Aileen: Life and Death of a Serial Killer by Nick Broomfield, who also directed a previous documentary in 1994 called Aileen Wuornos: The Selling of a Serial Killer.
